Electronic engineer

NIDEK Technologies is part of the NIDEK CO.,LTD. group, a leading Japanese company in the Healthcare industry. Our facility, located in Albignasego (PD), is the European research and development center of the group. Our mission is to conceive and design innovative technologies for the diagnosis, analysis, and management of eye pathologies.

ROLE

As an Electronic engineer, the person we are looking for will be responsible for developing and testing new electronic systems for diagnostics in ophthalmology, considering the structure and physiology of the human eye as an integral part of the system. He will oversee the electronic design from the feasibility study to the creation of functional prototypes, working in close collaboration with optical, mechanical, and software engineers. The activities include the design of the device's electronic schemes, passing through the physical layout, the generation of production documentation, prototype debugging, control firmware development, and possibly simple test software. The complexity of the designed instruments requires the ability to personally intervene on the prototype to carry out wiring, adjustments, and measurements.

TASKS

• Definition of technical specifications starting from the project requirements.
• Design with CAD software and circuit simulation.
• Supervision of prototype creation.
• Analysis of experimental data.
• Collaboration in an interdisciplinary working group (optics, mechanics, electronics, and software).
• Technical exchange with the Japanese R&D office.
• Drafting of the technical project documentation in compliance with the reference standards.
• Management of relationships with suppliers.
• Risk assessment related to the use of an ophthalmic device according to ISO 15004-1.
• Research, experimentation, and evaluation of new technologies.

REQUIRED SKILLS

• At least three years of experience in the role, even if carried out in a field other than that of ophthalmic systems.
• Attitude for teamwork and knowledge sharing.
• Experience with CAD software (preferably ORCAD) and the SPICE simulator.
• Experience using microcontrollers (preferably Cortex-M).
• Basic skills in programming and data analysis (e.g. Python, MATLAB).
• Good analytical skills and awareness of problems related to experimental measurement.
• Experience using laboratory instruments.
• Good communication skills in English, both written and spoken (B2 level).

OPTIONAL SKILLS

• Professional experience in the integration of opto-electro-mechanical systems.
• Professional experience in the biomedical field.
