Health Sensing HW - Systems Engineer
The Health Sensing Hardware team develops innovative and ground breaking health sensing technologies and features, and integrates them into Apple’s products. Wearable health sensors delivered by this team have ushered in a paradigm shift in how people manage their health by providing continuous, real-time monitoring of vital signs, early disease detection, and a shift from reactive treatment to preventative care.
We are seeking a systems engineer with a passion for applying systems engineering principles across the full product life cycle of complex health sensors and medical devices features. Join us in delivering health sensor technologies at the intersection of consumer products and medical devices.
You will work closely with product stakeholders as well as domain experts to develop and maintain user requirements, evaluate design candidates, and oversee verification and validation activities for our products. You will play a key role in coordinating activities across value streams by applying systems thinking across platforms and features.
Your responsibilities will include the following:
- Collaborate with product stakeholders to define and maintain user level requirements.
- Transform user level requirements and other stakeholders needs into engineering requirements via systems analysis and functional decomposition.
- Develop and maintain architecture diagrams, specification trees, and behavioral models to establish traceability across engineering domains and cross-functional teams.
- Identifying critical design risks and collaborate with domain experts to develop mitigation strategies via the use of fault trees, FMEAs, etc.
- Conduct impact analysis across design changes and requirements changes, and facilitate trade-off analysis across cross-functional stakeholders.
Other responsibilities may additionally include:
- Overseeing the requirements management system for one or more health features and/or health sensor technology platforms.
- Defining and implementing continuous improvement activities that are intended to prevent quality issues and nonconformance.
- Drive strategic initiatives intended to improve the efficiency and scalability of feature and product development.
- Experienced, dedicated engineer with proven track record of developing sophisticated systems from definition through the project life cycle.
- Background in one or more of the following: Knowledge of human physiology, experience with user testing, and analyzing sensor data to extract physiological metrics. Optics, sensor interfacing, signal conditioning, and sensor algorithms. Electrical engineering, analog-mixed signal circuits, and embedded systems. Mechanical engineering, electromechanics, product design. AI, machine learning and statistics.
- BS and a minimum of 10 years relevant industry experience.
- Experience with Medical device development with exposure to regulatory and quality systems preferred.
- Passion for defining and applying systems engineering best practices and systems architecture principles for developing high quality products.
- Exceptional written communication, negotiation, and presentation skills
- Technical leader able to bridge and coordinate broadly multi-functional teams
- Masters/PhD in relevant EE field.
