Job Description

Senior Electrical Engineer

This role is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys both leading and doing. As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you'll be part of the R&D department, and at the forefront of designing and developing innovative medical devices. You'll manage projects from the ground up, taking ideas from concept through to launch, while also getting hands-on with technical challenges and problem-solving. It’s a key position that blends leadership, technical expertise, and cross-functional collaboration.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead the development of new products or improvements to existing ones, using solid engineering practices and creative thinking.
  • Work with different teams across the business to gather technical requirements and turn them into clear, actionable plans.
  • Research materials and processes to ensure products are safe, reliable, and efficient to manufacture.
  • Oversee the prototyping and testing phases, analyzing performance, gathering feedback, and refining designs as needed.
  • Maintain accurate documentation throughout the development process, including test data and design decisions.
  • Share updates and findings with internal teams and occasionally with external partners or stakeholders.
  • Support the creation of documentation for manufacturing processes and quality assurance.
  • Keep projects on track by managing timelines and deliverables.
  • Help mentor junior engineers and provide guidance on project tasks where needed.
  • Pitch in on other engineering tasks to support the wider R&D goals.

What You Bring to the Table

  • A degree in engineering (BS, MS, or PhD), along with relevant experience in medical device development. Ideally 2 to 5+ years depending on education level.
  • Experience taking products from early-stage design all the way to production.
  • Solid understanding of project management and the ability to lead cross-functional teams.
  • A knack for solving problems and thinking analytically under pressure.
  • Strong interpersonal skills - you’re comfortable working both independently and with diverse teams.
  • Familiarity with design controls, regulatory requirements, and industry standards.
  • Proficiency with tools like SolidWorks, MS Office, and common project tracking platforms.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • High attention to detail and a strong focus on quality.

If this sounds like a good fit and you would like to learn more about the company and position, please apply directly and feel free to reach out to me at o.archer@x4lifesciences.com. I’ll be happy to provide more details.
