Electrical Engineer II

📍 San Diego, CA (onsite) | Full-time

About the role

A growing medical device company is hiring an Electrical Engineer II to help develop the electrical systems for its next-generation device platform. You’ll own defined circuits and subsystems from design through prototype, bring-up, verification, and manufacturing support. You’ll work alongside senior engineers, with a clear path to system-level ownership and a Senior Electrical Engineer role.

What you’ll do

• Design analog, digital, power, and microcontroller-based electronics for embedded medical devices
• Create schematics, PCB layouts, BOMs, and design documentation
• Develop interfaces for sensors, pumps, fans, displays, touchscreens, batteries, and communication modules
• Assemble prototypes, bring up boards, test, debug, and iterate
• Build test fixtures and tools for board-level and system-level verification
• Partner with firmware, mechanical, and systems engineers on interfaces, packaging, thermal, and architecture
• Support EMC/ESD, signal and power integrity, design verification, and manufacturing transfer
• Contribute to design reviews, root-cause investigations, and risk assessments

Requirements

• BS in Electrical Engineering or a related field, or equivalent experience
• 3+ years of hands-on experience designing and debugging embedded electronic systems
• Analog and digital circuit design, power distribution, and microcontroller interfaces
• Schematic capture and PCB layout in Altium or a comparable tool
• Prototype board bring-up and lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies)
• Embedded interfaces: UART, SPI, I²C, USB, ADC, PWM, GPIO
• Clear communication and cross-functional collaboration
• Medical device or regulated product experience (IEC 60601, ISO 13485, ISO 14971) preferred
• STM32 ecosystem experience preferred (STM32N6 a big plus)
• Displays, touch, wireless, or high-speed digital interfaces a plus
• Motor, pump, fan, thermoelectric, or heater control hardware a plus
• Battery-powered systems, BMS, and charging a plus
• Basic embedded C and Git a plus
