Description

Work Flexibility: Onsite

Stryker is seeking a seasoned hardware engineer who owns designs end to end — from schematic capture through layout, bring-up, and verification — and holds the result to a high bar at every stage. The ideal candidate is energized by board-level debugging and root-cause analysis and sweats the details that make or break a board: stackup, impedance control, power integrity, etc. Experience in a regulated industry is essential, and this engineer is comfortable working within design controls, risk management, and standards such as IEC 60601-1. As a Staff-level contributor, they elevate the broader team — mentoring others, working across firmware, mechanical, and systems, and anticipating sourcing, manufacturability, and lifecycle challenges before they arise.

What You Will Do

  • Own end-to-end PCB design from schematic capture through layout, fabrication, assembly, and board bring-up for multi-layer, multi-board medical device systems

  • Lead board-level debugging and root cause analysis using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, and thermal imaging

  • Drive signal integrity and power integrity analysis, including impedance-controlled routing, decoupling strategies, plane partitioning, and high-speed interface design (LVDS, USB, HDMI, Ethernet)

  • Develop and refine PCB layout guidelines,stackupdefinitions, and design rules to meet EMI/EMC and electrical safety requirements per IEC 60601-1

  • Design power distribution architectures at the board level, including DC-DC converters, LDOs, sequencing, inrush management, and grounding/isolation strategies

  • Performcomponentselection and qualification, including derating analysis, alternate sourcing, and obsolescence management for long-lifecycle medical products

  • Define and execute board-level verification and validation testing, including environmental stress testing, margin testing, and boundary condition characterization

  • Mentor junior engineers on PCB design best practices, debuggingmethodology, and design-for-excellence principles (DFM, DFA, DFT)

  • Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, and systems engineering teams to resolve cross-domain integration issues at the board and system level

  • Generate andmaintainengineering documentation, including schematics, layout guidelines, test reports, DVP&Rs, risk analysis, and design control records

What You Need (Required Qualifications)

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineeringor related field

  • 4+ years of experience in electrical hardware design, PCB design, or a related fieldrequired

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with PCB design tools (Altium, OrCAD, or Allegro), including multi-layer boards

  • Proven experience in board bring-up, debugging, and failure analysis

  • Strong background in signal integrity, power integrity, and mixed-signal design

  • Experience with high-speed interfaces (e.g., USB, Ethernet, LVDS)

  • Proficiency with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, analyzers, thermal tools)

  • Experience with board-level power design (DC-DC, LDOs, etc.)

  • Knowledge of EMI/EMC design and pre-compliance

  • Experience in a regulated industry (medical preferred)

  • Familiarity with design controls, risk management, and V&V

  • Understanding of DFM/DFA/DFT and manufacturing collaboration

  • Experience with embedded systems (MCU/FPGA interfaces)

  • Knowledge of PCB thermal management techniques

  • Exposure to flex/rigid-flex designs and Linux (nice to have)
