Lead Compliance Engineer, R&D

📍 Newark, Delaware |

No sponsorship provided.


We’re looking for a hands-on Lead Compliance Engineer with a strong electrical or high-voltage background to drive compliance strategy for complex, regulated products. This role sits deep in R&D and plays a critical part in shaping product design, testing, and certification from concept through delivery.

If you’ve worked on electromechanical systems and enjoy solving complex compliance challenges—not just documenting them—this is the kind of role where you’ll have real impact.


🎯 What We’re Looking For

  • 7 years in compliance engineering for medical and/ or imaging equipment.
  • Strong background in electrical or high-voltage systems.
  • Hands-on experience with electromechanical testing and test design
  • Testing for EMC/EMI and safety compliance (IEC 60601 is a plus)
  • Experience contributing to CAPA, root cause investigations, and validation activities
  • Background in medical devices (preferred) or similar industries (capital equipment, imaging, automotive)
  • Ability to work cross-functionally and influence engineering decisions
  • Strong analytical mindset and problem-solving skills


🔑 What You’ll Do

  • Lead end-to-end compliance strategy across the product lifecycle
  • Act as the technical SME for compliance in design reviews and engineering decisions
  • Drive and execute electromechanical, EMC/EMI, and safety testing (internal & external)
  • Design and influence test methods and validation strategies
  • Identify risks early and guide teams through root cause analysis and corrective actions (CAPA)
  • Partner closely with R&D, manufacturing, and regulatory teams
  • Support audits, certifications, and regulatory interactions
  • Mentor engineers and elevate compliance capabilities across the team


🌍 Benefits

  • Full time job
  • Annual Bonus
  • High-impact position with real influence on product design and compliance strategy
  • Work on innovative medical technologies with global reach
  • Strong mix of technical depth leadership exposure
  • Opportunity to own decisions, not just execute them
