Senior Test Engineer

At Medtronic you can begin a life-long career of exploration and innovation, while helping champion healthcare access and equity for all. You’ll lead with purpose, breaking down barriers to innovation in a more connected, compassionate world. A Day in the Life Medtronic At Medtronic, we value what makes you unique. Be part of a company that thinks differently to solve problems, make progress, and deliver meaningful innovations. Our Purpose The Physiological Sensing R&D team is dedicated to the end-to-end development, continuous advancement, and clinical validation of innovative monitoring technologies that measure, interpret, and leverage physiological signals to improve patient outcomes. Their expertise spans anaesthesia and depth of sedation monitoring, respiratory monitoring, pulse oximetry, regional oximetry, and the integration of predictive algorithms and clinical decision support solutions. By focusing on non-invasive, real-time technologies, they empower clinicians with actionable insights in surgery, critical care, and other high-risk settings. Come for a job, stay for a career! A Day in The Life Of: The Senior Test Engineer supports the design, implementation, and qualification of automated and semi-automated test systems and designs and executes test cases used to verify functional and performance requirements of physiologic monitoring devices and subsystems, such as pulse oximetry, regional oximetry, EEG based devices, and other sensing technologies. On a typical day, this role works closely with the Principal Test Automation Engineer and cross-functional partners. Translate system and subsystem requirements into detailed test cases, procedures, and automated scripts. Hands-on, developing, executing, and troubleshooting tests, analysing results, and ensuring thorough coverage across normal, boundary, and fault conditions. Assist in the design, implementation, and qualification of automated and semi-automated test systems for physiologic monitoring devices and subsystems. Develop, document, and maintain detailed test cases, procedures, and automated scripts aligned with system and subsystem requirements. Execute functional, performance, and system-level tests, including regression, exploratory, and fault-injection testing. Configure and operate test equipment, instrumentation, simulators, and data acquisition systems required for verification activities. Analyse test results, identify defects or anomalies, and clearly document findings, root cause hypotheses, and supporting data. Work cross-functionally with software, hardware, systems, and quality engineers to troubleshoot issues and verify fixes. Key Skills & Experience Requires a Bachelors degree and minimum of 4 years of relevant experience OR Master's degree with a minimum of 2 years relevant experience OR PhD with 0 years relevant experience. Hands-on experience developing and executing manual, automated, or semi-automated test cases for complex electromechanical or embedded systems. Proficiency with test automation tools, scripting, or programming languages commonly used in test environments (e.g., Python, LabVIEW, MATLAB, C/C, or similar). Experience working with test equipment and instrumentation such as oscilloscopes, logic analysers, signal generators, simulators, and data acquisition systems. Strong understanding of requirements-based testing, traceability, and test coverage for system and subsystem verification. Experience analysing test data, identifying defects and failure modes, and clearly documenting results and root cause hypotheses. Ability to troubleshoot complex issues across hardware, software, and system interfaces in collaboration with cross-functional teams. Familiarity with medical device development processes and quality systems, including verification and validation activities; experience with regulated environments preferred. Experience creating and maintaining test documentation, including test plans, protocol ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
