Description
Job Title Advanced System Engineer Job Description Job Responsibilities: 1. Design for Reliability (DfR) · Participate in system architecture reviews for new CT products. Lead the allocation and decomposition of reliability metrics (MTBF, MTTF, availability, etc.). · Apply FMEA for high‑risk components (rotating anode, detector modules, slip ring transmission, etc.) to assess and mitigate risks, tracking closure of actions. · Conduct FTA and FMECA to identify single‑point failures and hardware‑software interaction failure modes. · Define quality target for new prodcut. 2. Reliability Growth & Verification · Design and execute ALT / HALT to validate life boundaries of critical parts (tube filament, HV tank insulation, bearing mechanical fatigue, etc.). · Plan environmental reliability tests (temperature, humidity, vibration, transportation) simulating mobile medical vehicle or diverse hospital environments. · Organize Reliability Qualification Tests (RQT) based on clinical usage profiles (e.g., scan protocol distribution, cooling cycles) to verify that system design meets targets. 3. Failure Analysis & Improvement · Lead root‑cause analysis for reliability issues found during development and prototype testing (e.g., dead pixels, rotating vibration, image‑artifact‑related downtime). Drive hardware, software, and mechanical engineers to implement ECR/ECN. · Build a CT failure database and physical failure models; accumulate knowledge on key issues like tube arcing and detector temperature drift. 4. Lifecycle Data Closure · Use statistical tools such as to process failure data from NPI and early clinical validation; predict return rates and support warranty strategy development. · Extend DFMEA results to production and service teams, ensuring that design rules are effectively transferred to manufacturing and field support. Minimum Education: · Bachelor’s degree or above in engineering (Mechanical, Electrical, Reliability, Biomedical Engineering, or related). Master’s / PhD preferred. · Minimum 5 years of reliability engineering experience in high‑end equipment, medical devices, or automotive electronics. Minimum Experience: · Must have hands‑on reliability experience during the development phase of large electromechanical systems (e.g., CT, MRI, PET‑CT, avionics, semiconductor equipment). Preferred Skills: · Strong systems thinking and logical reasoning; ability to extract root causes from complex image artifacts. · Excellent cross‑functional collaboration (frequent interaction with electrical, mechanical, software, system engineers, and clinical experts). Able to independently write reliability test plans, reports, and failure analysis reports. · Knowledge of environmental & reliability test standards (GB/T 2423, IEC 60068‑2, YY/T 0291 for medical imaging equipment). How we work together We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations. Indicate if this role is an office/field/onsite role.
