Embedded & Automations Engineer

We are a team of passionate medical and technological innovators on a mission to improve patient treatment and outcomes with cutting-edge medical devices like the FloPatch. FloPatch is the world’s first wireless Doppler ultrasound system designed to support the clinical management of critically ill patients. The wearable sensor enables real-time functional hemodynamic monitoring for patients requiring cardiopulmonary and fluid resuscitation. The successful candidate will assist Flosonics Medical in introducing FloPatch to the world.

We are seeking a hands-on Embedded and Automations Engineer to join our Engineering team. In this role, you will own the development, validation, and maintenance of FloPatch firmware while supporting software integration, board bring-up, and production testing. You will also develop embedded tools and automated test systems to improve product quality and manufacturing efficiency.

The ideal candidate enjoys solving technical challenges and thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment. Working closely with Engineering and Manufacturing, you will support assembly automation, champion design-for-test and design-for-assembly, and contribute to the documentation, validation, and design controls required for medical device development.

Responsibilities:

• Ownership of FloPatch firmware. Improve, validate, maintain, and document FloPatch code base.
• Support requirements gathering and documentation for embedded test stations. Review electrical designs, perform board bring-up and testing. Own embedded code on production test stations and tools.
• Support full-stack CI/CT testing and own the embedded infrastructure for product and manufacturing test automation.
• Advocate for design-for-assembly as part of product design and development. Design and implement robotic systems to automate assembly.
• Support review, development, and validation of production scripts, electronic, and mechanical CAD designs.
• Documentation, validation, and design controls are part of the job.

 

Qualifications and Education Requirements:

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, mechatronics engineering, systems engineering or a related field.
• 4-6 years of experience in embedded or automations/mechatronics engineering, with a focus on design-for-test.
• Embedded C on ARM system-on-chip (Nordic nRF5x a plus) and peripherals/communications protocols (ADC, BLE, I2C, I2S, UART, etc.)
• Experience with biosensors, battery-operated wearable electronics, low-power design and test.
• Defensive coding style on bare metal, test-driven design within a CI/CT framework.
• Test automation in Python, with a framework (Robot Framework or similar) and CI/CT experience.
• Hardware bring-up and debug at the bench: SWD/JTAG, signal generator, logic analyzer, oscilloscope.
• Comfort moving across firmware, hardware, scripting, and electromechanical automation.
• Experience with prototyping, deep dive embedded debugging, and power analysis.
• Production or manufacturing test experience; design-for-test and BIST.

Additional Preferred Experience:

• Robotics or automation for assembly and test cells.
• Production tooling on cross-platform Python environments (Windows/Linux/Raspberry Pi).
• Regulated / medical-device experience (ISO 13485, design controls).
• RF or ultrasound familiarity.
• Statistics and experimental design methodology
• Low-power low-noise PCB design, review, debugging

Compensation:

The expected salary range for this role is $70,000.00 - $100,000.00 CAD annually, with final compensation determined by experience, skills, and internal equity.
