Kerja Sepenuh Masa Senior Engineer, Electrical Engineering, MedTech Catapult, Gaji tinggi SGD 4,500 di A*STAR RESEARCH ENTITIES West Region (Singapore) - Maukerja

Job Responsibilities

 MedTech Catapult is a national initiative to accelerate the productisation and commercialisation of high-value MedTech products and to strengthen Singapore's MedTech innovation ecosystem. The Senior Engineer will be expected to:

• Define and lead the design of electrical modules/subsystems within a larger medical device system (e.g., power, sensing, wireless, MCU subsystems)
• Contribute to overall electrical system architecture and ensure proper integration between modules
• Develop electrical requirements for system and subsystem levels
• Design schematics and guide/perform PCB layout using tools such as Altium
• Perform circuit simulations (e.g., worst-case analysis, tolerance analysis) as needed
• Conduct schematic/layout design reviews and Gerber checks prior to release
• Develop and execute electrical test plans
• Build prototypes and test platforms to verify module and system performance
• Perform electrical performance, functional, and reliability testing (e.g., environmental, thermal)
• Estimate and validate battery life and optimize low-power performance
• Participate in design risk analysis (e.g., DFMEA)
• Collaborate with firmware engineers to define and develop test modes / diagnostic interfaces for validation and compliance testing
• Support system integration and system-level testing
• Support EMC and electrical safety testing (in-house and with external test labs)
• Interface with external partners (design houses, PCB vendors, test labs) to communicate requirements and review results
• Generate and manage BOM with cost considerations
• Prepare, review, and maintain design documentation (schematics, test reports, DHF) in compliance with quality systems such as ISO 13485
• Support product development lifecycle activities, including design transfer and production
• Support technical feasibility studies for new product development projects, including evaluation of electrical architecture, key component selection, and preliminary risk and performance assessment.

Requirements

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronics Engineering or related field
• Minimum 5 years of experience in electrical/embedded hardware design
• Demonstrated ability to lead the design and development of electrical modules/subsystems, with understanding of system-level integration
• Strong foundation in embedded system design, including analog and digital circuits
• Experience designing battery-powered and low-power devices, including ability to estimate and validate battery life
• Experience integrating wireless technologies (e.g., BLE, cellular, Wi-Fi modules) at system or module level
• Hands-on experience with schematic capture and PCB design tools (e.g., Altium or equivalent); PCB layout experience is an advantage
• Ability to develop and execute electrical test plans, perform validation, and analyze results independently
• Experience using standard electrical lab equipment (e.g., oscilloscope, DMM, signal generator)
• Familiarity with sensors and signal acquisition used in embedded or medical devices
• Working knowledge of EMC and electrical safety considerations (e.g., IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2), with ability to support testing activities
• Experience working within a structured development process or quality system (e.g., ISO 13485), including documentation and traceability
• Ability to collaborate cross-functionally with firmware and system engineers, including defining requirements for test modes or diagnostics
• Good problem-solving skills, including root cause analysis and design trade-offs
• Strong documentation, organization, and communication skills.

Good To Have

• At least 3 years of experience in medical device development or other regulated industries
• Experience with RF/antenna selection, layout considerations, and basic impedance matching
• Exposure to EMC or regulatory testing and working with external test labs
• Familiarity with embedded platforms (e.g., Arduino, ESP32, Nordic, Raspberry Pi)
• Experience supporting design reviews, DFMEA, or risk management activities
• Ability or interest to mentor junior engineers and grow into broader system ownership
