Skills
Full job details
Every minute matters in stroke treatment. Magnendo is developing robotic technology to make life-saving endovascular procedures faster, safer, and more accessible. By combining advanced robotics, magnetic navigation, and intelligent software, we are tackling one of the most technically demanding challenges in healthcare while aiming to expand access to advanced stroke care for patients around the world. Join us in shaping the future of endovascular intervention.
We're looking for a Senior Systems Requirements & Test Engineer to own requirements decomposition and verification across our hardware, software, and sensing subsystems.
You Will:
Own and maintain system and subsystem requirements across hardware, software, and sensing, ensuring full traceability from clinical need through test verification
Decompose product-level and clinical requirements into verifiable, testable system and subsystem requirements spanning electromechanical hardware, software, and sensing subsystems
Develop test methods, protocols, and acceptance criteria to evaluate candidate technologies and design changes
Build and maintain test cases, test reports, and requirements traceability matrices (RTMs) across the system and subsystem levels
Partner with hardware, software, and sensing/algorithms engineers to translate product-level requirements into verifiable system-level requirements, and support design decisions with data from testing
Support risk analysis (e.g., FMEA), design reviews, and root-cause investigations tied to requirements and test failures
Contribute to a rigorous quality process that blends modern, high-reliability hardware/software development practices with a regulatory V-model framework (e.g., IEC 62304, IEC 60601, ISO 13485, ISO 14971)
You Are:
6+ years of experience in systems requirements engineering and/or V&V testing within a regulated, high-reliability environment (medical device strongly preferred; aerospace, automotive, or similar also considered)
Experienced developing and verifying requirements across integrated hardware, software, and sensing/sensor subsystems
Working knowledge of medical device regulatory frameworks and standards (e.g., FDA 21 CFR 820, ISO 13485, EU MDR, IEC 62304, IEC 60601, ISO 14971)
Experienced with requirements and test case management/traceability tools (e.g., Jama, DOORS, Polarion, or similar)
Strong root-cause analysis and debugging skills across hardware, software, and sensing interfaces
Able to operate with the judgment and independence of an early startup hire — comfortable defining process where none exists yet, while holding the line on rigor where it matters most
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to translate clinical and product-level needs into precise, verifiable engineering requirements
An adept, fast learner who is comfortable in a fast-paced environment
Bonus Points:
Experience in interventional, robotic, or other complex electromechanical medical devices
Experience with sensor/sensing subsystem V&V (e.g., optical tracking, EM tracking, force/torque sensing, imaging)
Comfortable with Python and Linux for building test tooling and automation
Experience writing software and scripts to automate testing of hardware, software, and sensing subsystems, increasing test coverage and repeatability as the system matures
Experience taking a device through FDA submission (510(k), De Novo, or PMA) or through a first-in-human/early feasibility clinical trial
Familiarity with structured process-improvement methodologies (Lean, DOE, root-cause analysis, or equivalent)
Familiarity with magnetic actuation, catheter/guidewire systems, or neurovascular/endovascular devices
