Company Overview:
Digital Health Solutions is a premier consulting company dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions to medical device companies. We specialize in helping our clients navigate the complexities of IEC 62304 and ISO 13485 compliance. Our team of skilled professionals is committed to delivering the highest level of service, ensuring that our clients' products are both safe and effective for their end users.
We are seeking a skilled and hands-on Embedded Systems Architect to lead the design and development of embedded hardware and firmware systems, spanning microcontroller and microprocessor-based solutions. The ideal candidate will have at least 10 years of experience in embedded systems development, particularly in medical devices or other highly regulated industries. This role will be instrumental in designing high-reliability embedded architectures, ensuring compliance with medical device standards (IEC 62304, ISO 13485, FDA 21 CFR Part 820), and guiding development teams through full product lifecycles.
Responsibilities:
- Architect and oversee development of embedded systems that use 32-bit microcontrollers (STM32, NXP, TI) and application processors (ARM Cortex-A, i.MX, etc.).
- Drive the complete product life-cycle—concept, requirements capture, architecture, design, implementation, verification, release, and long-term maintenance.
- Collaborate with hardware, software, quality, and regulatory teams to translate product requirements and constraints into robust system architectures.
- Lead firmware development in C and C++ for bare-metal, RTOS, and embedded-Linux targets, including board support packages, bootloaders, and secure update mechanisms.
- Define board-level hardware architecture—power, sensing, and communication subsystems (UART, SPI, I²C, CAN, USB, BLE, Wi-Fi, cellular)—in partnership with hardware engineers.
- Perform system bring-up, low-level debugging, and integration of BSPs, device drivers, and middleware.
- Ensure compliance with FDA regulations, ISO 13485, IEC 62304, and cybersecurity guidance (AAMI TIR57, FDA Premarket Cybersecurity).
- Lead risk-management activities, including hazard analysis, FMEA, and verification / validation planning and execution.
- Evaluate and recommend embedded platforms, SoCs, and communication protocols that best meet technical, cost, and schedule objectives.
- Conduct design and code reviews, establish best practices, and mentor junior engineers.
- Produce and maintain high-quality documentation: system architecture specifications, design rationales, test protocols, and risk analyses.
Qualifications:
- 10+ years of hands-on experience in embedded systems development, preferably in regulated industries such as medical devices, aerospace, automotive, or industrial safety.
- Proficient in C and C++ for real-time, safety-critical, and low-level systems.
- Deep expertise in embedded Linux development, including Yocto, Buildroot, kernel customization, and driver integration.
- Strong experience with RTOS (e.g., FreeRTOS, Zephyr, QNX) and bare-metal firmware.
- Proven background in technical consulting or client-facing product development roles.
- Solid understanding of ARM Cortex-M/A architectures, embedded security, and peripheral interfaces.
- Skilled in using debugging and diagnostic tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and JTAG/SWD debuggers.
- Familiar with relevant standards and regulatory frameworks, including IEC 62304, ISO 14971, and FDA software validation.
- Experience with wireless protocols (BLE, Wi-Fi, LoRa) and embedded cybersecurity practices.
- Excellent leadership, communication, and documentation skills.
- Strong problem-solving mindset and collaborative approach to innovation.
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary and comprehensive benefits package.
- A collaborative work environment that values innovation and growth.
- Opportunities for professional development and career advancement.
- The chance to contribute to life-changing medical device solutions.
