Electrical Engineer responsible for complete electronic design of medical equipment focused on non-invasive infant care. Cradle to maturity involvement beginning with alignment of desired specifications and governing standards to build design inputs, followed by system architecture definition, detailed analog and digital systems designs, module and system verification testing, and transition to production.Electronic designs include analog and digital embedded systems covering: patient monitoring, warming and light therapy, power supplies, operator interfaces and data ports. Multiple microcontrollers and microprocessors utilized. All designs had to meet very stringent reliability and medical device safety standards including hospital, home health care, ground transport, and flight service. Incorporated new technology into this challenging design space and successfully took several systems through full regulatory testing covering EMC/EMI and interdisciplinary safety design. Represent electrical engineering in cross functional design tasks as both a team lead and as an individual engineer. Manage multiple concurrent personal design efforts as well as other engineers performing supporting hardware and firmware tasks.
