Senior Design Engineer • Sydney, NSW, Australia You’ll be part of
Sleep Futures, a hands‑on research and technology team focused on exploring, building, and learning from next‑generation sleep products. This role suits an engineering generalist who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys rapid prototyping, and is motivated by turning loosely defined problems into tangible, testable solutions.
Let’s Talk About Responsibilities Lead the design and development of
exploratory sleep‑related products, sub‑systems, and concepts, from early ideation through functional prototypes and learning builds.
Operate as an
engineering all‑rounder, contributing across integrated hardware systems including mechanical design, electronics, sensing technologies, and overall system behaviour.
Translate
loosely defined user, clinical, and technology needs
into clear design concepts, engineering requirements, and testable hypotheses.
Design, build, and iterate
rapid prototypes
to validate assumptions related to comfort, usability, sensing performance, robustness, and manufacturability.
Plan and execute
targeted verification, experimentation, and learning activities
appropriate to early‑stage concept maturity, and interpret results to guide design direction.
Collaborate closely with cross‑functional partners across
Industrial Design, Systems, Electronics, Firmware, Software, Algorithms, Clinical, Manufacturing, Quality, and Regulatory .
Work effectively at
software and firmware interfaces, supporting requirements definition, system understanding, test methods, and hands‑on debugging where needed.
Ensure design activities are conducted within the
ResMed Quality Management System, with rigor and documentation scaled appropriately to concept maturity.
Mentor and support less‑senior engineers, contributing to
technical capability development and hands‑on culture
within the Sleep Futures team.
Let’s Talk About Qualifications & Experience Required Bachelor’s degree in
Mechanical Engineering, Mechatronics Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Industrial Design, or a closely related discipline.
Significant experience in
product design and development, spanning concept generation, prototyping, and early verification.
Strong
hands‑on capability
in CAD, physical prototyping, and iterative development.
Demonstrated ability to operate effectively in
fast‑moving, ambiguous environments, while maintaining sound engineering judgement and attention to fundamentals.
Preferred Experience working with
integrated hardware systems, such as wearable devices, consumer electronics, or sensing‑enabled products.
Practical understanding of
software and firmware concepts, with the ability to collaborate effectively with software and firmware engineers.
Exposure to
sensing technologies
(e.g. EEG, PPG, motion, bio‑signals)
Experience engaging
suppliers and manufacturing partners
during early feasibility, rapid iteration, and learning‑build phases.
