Position Title: Sr Electrical Engineer, Design Readiness Team (Contract)
Contract: 1 Year (Possibility of Extension)
Location: Newton MA
Pay Rate: $62.00/hr to 78.00/hr on w2

Position Summary:
The Senior EE Design Readiness Engineer will be a part of the R&D organization and an important contributor to the realization of the next generation robotic platform that will change the future of healthcare. You will be a highly visible technical resource working on the transition of electrical assemblies and components from prototype to verification & clinical builds and testing, in close collaboration with manufacturing engineering. This role is suited for an R&D engineer with experience in developing, building, and testing complex electro-mechanical medical devices, design transfer, and process validation with broad knowledge of electrical, mechatronics, firmware, software, and systems engineering, including design verification testing, and transfer to manufacturing within a regulated medical device development environment.

Key Responsibilities:

• Being a key team member working on design readiness of the electrical aspects of a robotic system
• Support development of assembly and test/screening processes for electrical assemblies and components
• Support identification of, specification creation for, development and characterization of in-line test and build fixtures for electrical assemblies and components
• Support development and maintenance of the BOM and DMR
• Support of troubleshooting and root cause investigations of electromechanical subsystems using excellent methodologies and thoroughly documenting the analyses.
• Specify electrical, firmware and software development requirements for test and build fixtures
• Author relevant documents such as build process, assembly instructions, inspection procedures, test protocols, test reports, analyses, and system documentation
• Support a variety of multi-disciplinary technical and process improvement projects of different sizes and Products
• Analyze, test, and recommend refinements for DFx such as reliability, testability, and manufacturability.
• Support creation of DHF and release of documentation to quality system
• Manage and communicate assigned projects in collaboration with cross-functional teams

Qualifications:

• 10+ years electromechanical R&D engineering experience, at least 5 years in medical device required
• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical/ Robotics/ Mechatronics/Advanced Manufacturing Engineering or a close field is required
• Proficient in design and development of PCBA test fixtures and the related testing processes (requirements development, tester development, test protocol development, test execution, test report), ECO documentation for test fixture.
• Experience with analog and digital circuit design
• Proficient in circuit analysis and troubleshooting electronics
• Experience in design for testing and design for manufacturability
• Experience with systems engineering approaches and design control for medical devices
• Experience in bench testing with standard electrical test equipment and experience with the hands on rework of PCBAs.
• Nice to have experience developing test applications and/or firmware with MATLAB Simulink.
