As a Senior Electronics Design Engineer, you will drive the full lifecycle of electronic subsystems for medical devices, taking ownership from initial concept through to manufacturing handover. Your work will center on creating robust, safe, and compliant electronic solutions, with a strong emphasis on reliability and adherence to medical standards.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the design and development of analogue, digital, and mixed-signal circuits, ensuring alignment with safety and regulatory requirements.
- Create and review detailed schematics and PCB layouts, with experience using Altium Designer preferred.
- Conduct design calculations, component selection, and risk assessments in accordance with IEC 60601 and ISO 14971.
- Support and contribute to electronic architecture decisions in collaboration with software, systems, and principal engineering teams.
- Lead verification efforts, including functional testing, EMC pre-compliance, and safety validation.
- Diagnose and resolve technical issues during prototyping and testing phases, performing root-cause analysis as needed.
- Develop and maintain comprehensive technical documentation required for regulated medical device development.
- Support manufacturing transfer by working closely with contract manufacturers and component suppliers.
- Mentor junior engineers and contribute to team knowledge through active participation in design reviews and process improvements.
- Ensure all work follows applicable company policies and regulatory expectations.
Qualifications and Experience
Candidates must have proven experience in electronic design for medical devices, with a track record of owning subsystems from concept to production. You should demonstrate a deep understanding of regulatory standards, verification methodologies, and the ability to lead technical work in a cross-functional, quality-driven environment. Proficiency in schematic capture and PCB layout tools, particularly Altium Designer, is highly valued. The role combines on-site collaboration in Oxford with flexibility for remote design work to support close coordination across engineering, quality, and regulatory functions.
