About the Company

Join an innovative U.S.-based manufacturer at the forefront of developing advanced laser and light-based systems used in aesthetic and dermatological treatments. For over two decades, this company s cross-functional R&D and manufacturing teams in Silicon Valley have produced FDA-cleared platforms trusted by physicians worldwide for procedures such as skin resurfacing, hair removal, and other non-invasive therapies. With a robust product pipeline and commitment to technical excellence, they are expanding their electrical engineering team and cultivating the next generation of engineering leadership.

What You ll Do

  • Design and simulate electronic circuits for high-performance aesthetic laser systems
  • Select components with consideration for lifecycle, availability, and cost optimization
  • Perform PCB layout using Altium Designer and manage board development
  • Develop embedded firmware for ARM-based microcontroller platforms
  • Design system-level wiring, harnesses, and cables for high-voltage/high-current applications (up to 1000V / 400A / 4kW)
  • Conduct hardware and software testing to meet regulatory and performance standards
  • Participate in hands-on prototyping and SMD rework within the in-house lab
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams including optical, mechanical, software, and manufacturing engineers to bring next-generation products from concept to production

Core Requirements

  • Minimum of 5 years of hands-on electrical engineering experience
  • Strong background in embedded systems development (ARM)
  • Experience with switching power supplies (up to 4kW)
  • Proficient in high-voltage/high-current circuit design
  • Solid understanding of analog and digital circuit design principles
  • Proficiency in Altium Designer and circuit simulation tools such as SPICE
  • Bachelor s degree in electrical engineering (BSEE or higher)

Highly Valued Qualifications

  • Experience designing FDA-regulated medical devices (aesthetic, surgical, or life science sectors)
  • Proficiency with power device selection (e.g., IGBTs, MOSFETs) and motor control systems
  • Sensor integration experience (e.g., pyroelectric, optical, current/voltage feedback sensors)
  • Familiarity with digital communication protocols such as I C, SPI, etc.
  • Prior experience in mentorship, team leadership, or project ownership
