Why Imperative Care?
Do you want to make a real impact on patients?
At Imperative Care, we are developing novel robotic-assisted technologies and interventional capabilities that will forever change the disparate outcomes of ischemic stroke – a disease that impacts close to a million people a year in the U.S., and 10 million worldwide.  Not only is Imperative Care changing the way stroke is treated, but also bringing this treatment to the greater population who is currently without. We are actively building a team who is focused on developing novel solutions for this complex disease – a disease in which one in four adults will face in their lifetime.

What You’ll Do
As a seasoned professional, the Senior Electrical Engineer is a key member of the R&D team, focusing on hardware electronics design for the next generation of robotic products at Telos Health. This role collaborates with cross-functional teams to resolve technical electrical engineering challenges arising during the design and development of Printed Circuit Board Assembly (PCBA) production test hardware. The position contributes to design control documentation, including test protocol development, risk analysis, and ensures electrical safety design and documentation comply with FDA, UL and TUV regulatory requirements (specifically those related to IEC, EMC, CISPR, and related standards).
  • Design electronic circuit board and robotic subassembly test fixtures that test motion control and sensor circuit performance and reliability. Including mixed-signal, analog, digital and data acquisition circuit design.
  • Collaborate with firmware, mechanical and manufacturing engineers to realize complex electromechanical test fixtures.
  • Coordinate EMI/EMC testing of product hardware and identify design improvements to ensure compliance with regulatory standards such as IEC60601-1, IEC60601-1-2, CISPR22, ISO for safety and EMC compliance in a regulated environment (UL, TUV, FDA).
  • Identify and design product design improvements to enhance electronics reliability, testability, manufacturability and performance against regulatory standards.
  • Work closely with cross-functional teams to define and implement a product manufacturing and test plan that ensures hardware electronics quality and reliability.
  • Facilitate board bring-up, test, and debug of newly designed printed circuit boards.
  • Write electronic hardware design verification protocols and develop test vehicles for executing the protocols.
  • Work closely with electronic hardware suppliers to ensure manufacturing and test procedures are set up, qualified, and executed to meet company and regulatory standards.
  • Communicate effectively status plans to multi-functional engineering/program management teams.

What You’ll Bring minimum requirements for this role:

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability
Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability Form CC-305

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way.
