The primary focus of this role is to apply a system-thinking approach and techniques to design and develop a first-in-its-class instrument, collaborating with cross-functional teams of engineers and scientists. As a Systems Engineer, you will take ownership of a wide range of tasks pertaining to high value internal projects - from requirements capture and architecture development, to system prototyping and integration, verification and validation activities. During this process, you will be required to provide in-depth analysis and help guide important decisions during design reviews and architecture discussions.
This is a multidisciplinary role and you will interface across many parts of the company (with scientists, researchers, and other engineers) to develop the best solutions possible. The successful candidate will be a resident expert in the areas of systems engineering, fluidic control, and highly automated instrument development. This is a hands-on position.
Candidates should enjoy working in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment, and be prepared to tackle a broad selection of challenges as the company grows.
\n- Responsible for maintaining and refining system requirements and architecture: create and maintain documents, models & diagrams describing functional and physical decompositions, interface definitions, flow diagrams
- Support architecture definition by working with subsystem design teams to align overlapping design requirements /constraints and drive teams in developing concepts, evaluating risks, and efficiently converging on a design path
- Provide support to sub-system engineers in the development of models that guide lower level design decisions
- Assist teams with complex root-cause analysis in which there are many possible root causes that involve various areas of physics, using a structured approach for problem solving
- Work closely with other members of the team to formulate, execute and analyze verification and validation activities
- BS in Physics or Engineering with 0-6 years of extensive, hands-on experience in the development of analytical instrumentation, biotech automation, or similar is required
- MS or PhD in Physics or Engineering with any hands-on experience in the development of analytical instrumentation, biotech automation, or similar is desirable
- Hands-on experience designing and integrating in the lab highly complex instrumentation prototypes that combine fluidic handling, electronic sensors, robotics
- Working knowledge of requirements and risk management tools like JamaConnect, IBM Doors, Windchill, Orcanos or TeamCenter is desirable
- Experience with MATLAB, Python, or high level scripting software languages, for modeling, simulation and data processing
- Working knowledge of Statistical Design of Experiments, Data Analysis and Visualization, with SW tools such as: JMP, Minitab, Tableau
- Excellent verbal, written, presentation and interpersonal skills
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Demonstrated track record of rapidly climbing steep learning curves
- Prior experience working in ISO regulated environments ( ISO 13485, ISO 14791)
- Creative, self-motivated, flexible to work in a small company environment and assume a wide variety of tasks
