• Design, develop, and test embedded firmware and software for medical devices using C/C++ and/or Python.
• Develop low-level drivers, communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART, BLE), and RTOS-based systems.
• Participate in risk analysis, code reviews, and verification/validation processes per IEC 62304 and ISO 13485 standards.
• Contribute to architecture decisions and documentation required for regulatory submissions (FDA, CE).
• Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership across firmware/software initiatives.
• Developing and reviewing software architecture, algorithms, and power management solutions with a focus on safety, performance, and compliance.
• Working closely with hardware engineers to ensure cohesive product development and support hardware integration goals.
• Interpreting and translating user, clinical, and regulatory requirements into detailed technical specifications and documentation.
• Driving internal and external design reviews, including risk assessments (e.g., FMEA) and compliance planning.
• Maintaining all software and firmware design documentation per ISO 13485, IEC 60601, and FDA requirements.
