Sensing & Instrumentation Engineer

What You'd Do: Design, build, and debug sensing hardware.

Develop electronic instrumentation that reads faint biological signals.

Own mixed-signal PCB design from schematic capture through layout, fab, and bring-up.

Work with FPGAs to orchestrate the instrument in real time: acquisition timing, data streaming, and control.

Integrate sensors, boards, firmware, and software into one instrument that runs reliably inside the organ preservation system.

Reason from first principles, using circuit theory, optics, and measurement physics to model system behavior and debug ambiguous hardware problems.

Build test fixtures, experimental setups, and control software for validating sensors on real organs.

Learn quickly, own problems end to end, and contribute across the sensing stack, from transducer to data.

About You: You have a strong command of circuit theory and measurement physics (impedance, noise, signal integrity, sampling, electromagnetics), and reach for them instinctively when hardware misbehaves.

You can walk us through a project in depth: what you built, the physics reasoning that got you there, and where your first mental model was wrong.

You make order-of-magnitude estimates quickly and can explain the intuition behind them.

You’ve taken real analog and digital circuits from schematic through PCB layout and bench bring-up.

You have experience with instrumentation, data acquisition, FPGAs or embedded systems, and object-oriented programming.

You think in systems: interfaces, integration, and how a board behaves inside the whole instrument, not just on the bench.

You're excited to work at the edges of your field: the instrument spans optics, photonics, chemistry, and organ science, and you'll learn what you don't know.

You have a BS/MS in EE, Physics, or equivalent self-taught depth; we care more about demonstrated reasoning ability than credentials.

You want to join a small, fast-paced team on an excellent adventure.
