Minimum 3 years of relevant engineering experience, preferably involving product design and development in a regulated industry.
Demonstrated ability to apply engineering principles, analytical thinking, data analysis, and structured problem-solving to product design, testing, failure investigation, and technical decision-making.
Experience developing and executing engineering test methods or protocols, analyzing and interpreting test data, and documenting technically sound conclusions.
Working knowledge of structured product development processes, including design requirements, verification and validation, design reviews, risk management, and engineering changes.
Ability to interpret engineering drawings, specifications, material requirements, and applicable technical standards.
Experience preparing clear, accurate, and traceable engineering documentation, including specifications, protocols, reports, and design records.
Experience with CAD solid modeling, preferably SolidWorks.
Understanding of Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and the interaction between product design and manufacturing processes.
Strong written and verbal communication skills and demonstrated ability to work effectively within cross-functional teams.
Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.

Nice To Haves

Familiarity with FDA 510(k), EU MDR Technical Documentation, or other medical device regulatory submission requirements.
Experience with ERP and/or product data management systems.
Experience working with contract manufacturers and supplier development.

Responsibilities

Execute engineering activities supporting new product development, product modifications, line extensions, and sustaining engineering in accordance with established project requirements and Design Controls.
Apply engineering principles, analytical thinking, and structured problem-solving to evaluate product designs, materials, components, manufacturing processes, and product performance.
Develop and evaluate design concepts and technical solutions within established product requirements and project objectives, and prepare product specifications, drawings, Bills of Material (BOMs), and other engineering documentation.
Perform engineering analyses, including tolerance analysis, technical trade-off evaluations, failure analysis, and interpretation of product and test data.
Develop and maintain Design History File (DHF) documentation, including design inputs and outputs, traceability, verification and validation documentation, and supporting technical evidence.
Develop and execute design verification protocols and support design validation activities; analyze and interpret test data and prepare technically sound reports demonstrating compliance with applicable requirements.
Participate in product risk management activities, including hazard analysis and FMEA, and provide engineering analysis to identify and evaluate appropriate risk controls.
Participate in design reviews by providing technical analysis, test data, and recommendations and identifying potential technical risks or design deficiencies.
Collaborate with Manufacturing Engineering and Operations to support Design for Manufacturability (DFM), prototype and pilot builds, process validation, design transfer, and production implementation.
Evaluate engineering changes for technical, product performance, manufacturing, quality, risk management, and regulatory impacts and prepare appropriate change documentation.
Support investigations of product failures, customer complaints, nonconformances, and CAPAs using structured root cause analysis and recommend technically justified corrective actions.
Ensure assigned engineering activities and documentation are complete, accurate, traceable, and compliant with applicable FDA Design Controls, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, LifeSync's Quality Management System, and applicable technical standards.
Support preparation of technical evidence for regulatory submissions and technical documentation, including FDA 510(k) and EU MDR requirements, as applicable.
Work collaboratively with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, Regulatory Affairs, suppliers, test laboratories, and other functions while independently executing assigned engineering responsibilities.
