Systems Engineer
The Systems Engineer joins a multi-institutional team to support the ARIES program, an advanced medical technology initiative integrating robotics, imaging, AI, and autonomous control systems for neurovascular applications. This role involves translating architectural concepts into detailed system specifications, defining state machines, and documenting interface behaviors under nominal and fault conditions. You will collaborate with architects and engineers to manage requirements, create verification test cases, and execute tests across simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and real hardware environments. The position requires expertise in systems engineering for complex cyber-physical systems, including experience with medical device development and safety-critical software. Key technical competencies include behavior modeling, requirement decomposition, and proficiency with tools such as Helix ALM, Polarion, Jira, and Git to ensure seamless integration between internal components and external consortium partners within a regulated healthcare environment.
What does a Systems Engineer earn?
Median $154958 from 226 postings across 34 companies.
Translate architectural concepts into clear system requirements, specifications, and engineering documentation.
Define and maintain interface specifications for data exchange, command flows, and error handling between components.
Specify system behavior for nominal workflows, degraded modes, fault conditions, and safe-state transitions.
Create and maintain state machines including allowed states, triggers, guards, and expected behaviors.
Develop and manage verification test cases to ensure systems meet defined technical specifications.
Execute test cases in simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, and real hardware environments to verify system behavior.
Coordinate interface and behavior specifications with external consortium partners to ensure component compatibility.
What we're looking for
Bachelor's degree in Robotics, Engineering, Computer Science, Biomedical Engineering, or a related technical field.
Master's degree in Robotics, Autonomous Systems, Control Engineering, or a related technical field (preferred).
Demonstrated experience in systems engineering for complex technical systems, preferably involving robotics, distributed software, real-time control, medical technology, or safety-critical environments.
Experience creating technical documentation, system specifications, interface descriptions, requirements, and verification artifacts.
Experience defining system behavior across interfaces, including command flows, status reporting, fault handling, and safe-state behavior.
Practical experience with state machines, workflow logic, and behavior modeling for interconnected hardware and software components.
Experience developing and executing test cases in simulation, hardware-in-the-loop, or real hardware setups to verify requirements and system behavior.
