Electrical Engineer - Architect (Circuit Design)

GE HealthCare•Waukesha, WI

About The Position

Join a global engineering team utilizing advanced design tools and techniques to develop state-of-the-art CT systems for leadership medical diagnostic imaging systems. The Engineer is responsible for driving elements of the multi-generational product plan as well as product specific development plans. We foster a culture built on our core behaviors: acting with humility and building trust; leading with transparency; delivering with focus; and taking full ownership, always with integrity. The successful candidate in this role will support existing CT systems products and new product development programs with component design, equipment design, engineering analysis, and planning/conducting rigorous reliability and verification tests. There will be an emphasis on hands on engineering and component testing. This role requires the interaction with other service, manufacturing, and design engineering teams. Main responsibilities for this role will be analog circuit design, this will be in controls, high speed data transfer and power. As an architect, you will be expected to drive design rigor on the team as well as coordinate electrical strategy with our digital architects/PE’s both locally and with overseas design teams. We are looking for a well-rounded Electrical Engineer, that can execute on a variety of tasks (some fun, some mundane) as part of this super-awesome, fun-tastic team.
