  • Strong experience with real-time signals, systems and sensors integration.
  • Proficiency in MATLAB / Simulink and C / C++ for embedded systems. Real-time implementation and integration of control algorithms.
  • Strong background in human physiology and anatomy with specific knowledge of cardiovascular hemodynamics and vital signs parameters. Experience with physiological waveforms and parameters.
  • Experience in modeling of the pharmacokinetics and dynamics of drugs.
  • Experience with design and implementation of physiologic closed-loop controlled medical devices, such as insulin delivery systems, mechanical ventilators and anesthesia delivery systems.
  • Experience with FDA design controls and IEC software lifecycle processes.
  • Knowledge of machine learning and AI techniques applied to control systems.
  • Requires a high-energy individual who has excellent teamwork, partnering, and negotiation skills.
