Engineering jobs in Oregon

About the role

As an Engineer at e184, you will design and implement the electrical systems that enable communication and control between experimental hardware and software platforms supporting ex utero gestation. Your work will focus on developing reliable electrical architectures that integrate sensors, actuators, imaging systems, perfusion hardware, and environmental controls into a unified, software-controlled system. Working closely with mechanical, software, and bioengineering teams, you will translate device requirements into robust electrical designs that support long-duration, continuously operating experiments. This is a highly hands-on role for an engineer who enjoys building and debugging real-world systems at the intersection of scientific instrumentation, medical devices, and automated control in a fast-moving startup environment.

What you'll bring

• MS in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field, or BS with 3+ years of relevant industry experience
• Experience designing and debugging electronic systems for hardware devices or instrumentation
• Strong understanding of analog and digital electronics, signal conditioning, and power distribution
• Experience interfacing sensors, motors, pumps, or control hardware with embedded or computer-based systems
• Familiarity with common communication protocols (e.g., I2C, SPI, UART, USB, or TCP/IP)
• Experience reading and creating schematics and PCB designs
• Strong hands-on troubleshooting skills in laboratory or device environments
• Ability to work independently while collaborating in interdisciplinary teams
• Comfort working in a fast-paced, iterative startup environment
• Experience developing electronics for laboratory automation, medical devices, or scientific instrumentation
• Experience integrating electrical systems with software control platforms or embedded systems
• Familiarity with data acquisition systems and real-time monitoring hardware
