Medtronic Surgical is hiring a Sr. Hardware Engineer to play a key role in the development and sustainment of capital equipment platforms, including electrosurgical generator systems. 

You’re not just designing hardware—you’re helping build technology that improves and extends lives. In this role, you’ll work on complex medical devices where your decisions directly impact patients, clinicians, and outcomes around the world. 

If you're the kind of engineer who wants to own problems end-to-end, get hands-on with hardware, and see your work make it into real-world products, this is the kind of environment where you’ll thrive. 

You’ll join a collaborative capital equipment engineering team working on advanced surgical energy platforms and emerging technologies. Engineers on this team take strong ownership of their designs while working closely across a multiboard system architecture.  

 
What You’ll Do 

Key responsibilities include: 

  • Lead the design, analysis, and troubleshooting of complex digital hardware and circuit boards 

  • Drive board design projects through completion, verification, and integration 

  • Conduct hardware research, design, development, and testing of electrical components and systems 

  • Develop technical specifications and ensure hardware reliability and performance 

  • Analyze hardware configurations and verify designs meet system and regulatory requirements 

  • Collaborate with crossfunctional partners including systems engineering, manufacturing, regulatory, and marketing 

  • Provide handson lab support for prototypes, troubleshooting, and production hardware 

Approximately  20% of this role will focus on component library management, including: 

  • Building schematic symbols and PCB footprints 

  • Maintaining and improving the electrical component library for ECAD tools
