Principal Embedded Cybersecurity Systems Engineer

Job Description As a Principal Embedded Cybersecurity Systems Engineer, you will play a critical role in designing, developing, and securing embedded software for regulated medical devices, MDDS systems, and supporting mobile applications. This role is hands-on and highly technical, with accountability across the full product lifecycle—from requirements and architecture through development, verification, release, and post-market support. You will integrate cybersecurity best practices into real-time embedded systems, perform threat modeling and vulnerability mitigation, and ensure compliance with FDA, ISO, UL, and IEC standards. Working closely with cross‑functional teams across Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Operations, you will help translate product requirements into technical specifications, contribute to project planning and execution, conduct code and design reviews, and generate test procedures to validate performance and security requirements. As a senior technical leader, you will also mentor engineers on embedded cybersecurity concepts, support audits and change control processes, and help enforce company policies, quality systems, and secure development practices. We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
