What We're Looking For...
We are seeking an experienced Senior Electrical Engineer to join our Sydney‑based engineering team. This role is ideal for a technically strong electrical engineer who enjoys working at a system level, developing robust electrical specifications, and collaborating closely with external design partners and contract manufacturers.
You will contribute to the electrical design and development of active implantable medical devices, providing technical input across the product lifecycle — from requirements definition through design reviews, verification, and manufacturing support.
This role plays a critical part in technical reviews, partner engagement, and ensuring designs meet Saluda's performance, quality, and regulatory expectations.
This is a 12 month, Fixed Term contract position.
Your Role Will Include
Develop and maintain electrical system requirements, specifications, and interface documentation for medical device products
Collaborate with external design partners and contract manufacturers to support detailed electrical design activities
Participate in and contribute to technical and design reviews, providing clear, constructive engineering feedback
Support system‑level electrical architecture decisions across mixed‑signal, low‑power, and embedded electronics
Work closely with cross‑functional teams including systems engineering, firmware, mechanical, quality, regulatory, and manufacturing
Produce and develop documentation in line with Saluda's QMS, including planning & implementing changes following the change control procedure, and engaging collaborators and reviewers to address feedback
Provide regular updates to Project Managers on progress and risks
Assist with verification and validation activities, including test planning, execution support, and results review
Support troubleshooting and issue resolution during development, transfer to manufacturing, and post‑market activities
Ensure designs and documentation comply with medical device standards and regulatory requirements (e.g. IEC 60601, ISO 13485)
About You
Degree qualification in Electrical or Electronic Engineering (or equivalent)
5+ years' experience in electrical or electronic design, ideally within medical devices or regulated industries
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills with the ability to work effectively across internal and external teams
Experience developing engineering specifications and requirements
Exposure to working with external suppliers, design houses, or contract manufacturers
Understanding of system‑level considerations including power management, signal integrity, EMC, and safety
Familiarity with design controls, verification processes, and regulated development environments
Detail‑oriented, methodical, and comfortable balancing hands‑on technical work with coordination and review
Self-motivated with excellent time management skills
It's Not Essential, But Nice If You Have
Experience with implantable or active medical devices
Knowledge of low‑power or battery‑powered electronics
Experience supporting manufacturing transfer and sustaining engineering activities
Prior involvement in regulatory submissions or audits
PCB Design with Altium or similar software
Knowledge of analogue electronics, including circuit analysis and SPICE‑based simulation
Proficiency using electrical modelling and simulation tools such as LTspice
Strong programming fundamentals, including Embedded development (e.g. C) and higher‑level or scripting languages (e.g. Python, C#)
Experience with Bluetooth or other RF system design, including regulatory and compliance testing
Experience with Test Method Validation (TMV) and Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA)
At Saluda, we challenge boundaries. We innovate and think beyond the conventional. We disrupt.
