Role Overview: We are seeking a Senior R&D Engineer to join our team on a permanent basis. In this key role, you will provide electrical and electronic engineering expertise to support the design, development, and testing of medical devices, specifically focusing on catheter-based ablative therapies such as Renal Denervation (RDN). You will lead the design and troubleshooting of integrated hardware/software systems for single-use devices (SUDs), ensure regulatory and safety compliance, and contribute to innovation and intellectual property efforts to develop safe and effective therapy delivery systems.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, debug, modify, and test electrical circuits and systems for therapeutic ablation catheters and their consoles using modern tools and techniques.
• Lead root cause analysis and troubleshooting of electronic failures at the component and system level, driving corrective solutions.
• Manage development and evaluation of new catheter prototypes and console interfaces from concept through product launch in collaboration with cross-functional teams.
• Analyze, verify, and validate requirements, circuits, and integrated systems, ensuring seamless hardware, firmware, and physiological signal acquisition.
• Research, select, and implement electronic circuits, components, tools, and methodologies suitable for advanced ablative therapy devices.
• Maintain comprehensive documentation of electrical development activities in accordance with quality system standards (protocols, technical reports, change requests, design history files).
• Ensure all designs and products comply with medical device safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards such as IEC60601.
• Mentor and guide junior engineers and technicians, fostering their technical growth and contributing to a high-performing team.
• Translate clinical requirements into robust engineering solutions, identifying innovative opportunities and contributing to intellectual property generation.
• Communicate project status, risks, and milestones clearly to project leaders and senior management during regular meetings.
• Uphold a strong commitment to patient safety and product quality by strict adherence to the Quality Policy and all relevant quality procedures.
• Ensure availability of appropriate personnel, tools, and resources to maintain compliance with the Quality Management System and organizational policies.

Qualifications & Experience:

Essential:

• Level 8 Honours Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering.
• At least 5 years’ experience in medical devices or similarly regulated industries, with preference for work on catheter-based or implantable systems.
• Demonstrated skills in circuit and system design, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis.
• Proven knowledge of regulatory and safety standards, including IEC60601 series and EMC requirements.
• Excellent communication, technical documentation, and project management capabilities. Desirable:
• Experience with ablative energy modalities such as RF, ultrasound, IVL, or PFA.
• Familiarity with firmware debugging, digital logic design, FPGA technology, and system integration principles.
• Competence in data analysis tools such as LabVIEW, MATLAB, Python, and automated testing frameworks.
• Experience in intellectual property activities such as patent writing and disclosures.
• Proven leadership and mentoring experience within multidisciplinary teams.
