Senior Systems Engineer in Bülach

pbWe are looking for a hands-on senior engineer to own the electronics and system architecture of our sensing platform and lead technical development projects from concept through industrialization. /b /ppbStart Date: /b01/01/2027 /pWho We Are What We Are DoingpWe’re building the first wearable sensor that continuously and non-invasively measures lactate in saliva. This hasn’t been technically possible until now. We believe it unlocks a new class of insight into exercise control and recovery, turning lactate into a real-time signal instead of a lab artifact. /ppOur wearable sensor has the potential to transform sports performance optimization, enabling athletes to achieve peak performance in every session will result in more successful competitions and medals won. We have developed a functional prototype, and we are currently building our first commercial product. /ppThe company is growing fast and we are looking for several people to join our incredible team in Zürich. /pResponsibilitiesulliOwn and evolve the end-to-end system architecture, requirements and interfaces across sensing, electronics, firmware, mechanics and data. /liliLead product development projects from concept through industrialization, balancing scope, timelines, budget, quality, risks and technical trade-offs. /liliDrive alignment across internal specialists, external development partners, suppliers and pilot customers. /liliDefine and execute a risk-based verification and validation strategy to ensure product performance, reliability and quality. /liliMaintain clear and pragmatic design, test and change documentation throughout the development lifecycle. /liliLead technical reviews, resolve cross-functional challenges, drive critical engineering decisions and help establish a strong, hands‑on engineering culture. /li /ulPreferred BackgroundulliA degree in electronics engineering, mechatronics or a related field, or equivalent practical experience. /liliYou have successfully led multidisciplinary product development projects and owned the electronics and system architecture of complex sensing, wearable, health-tech or laboratory products from prototype through production. /liliExperience in regulated MedTech environments and insights into quality management and documentation challenges is a strong plus. /liliExperience driving complex technical projects, keeping cross-functional teams, suppliers and stakeholders aligned while turning decisions into action. /li /ulMust HavesulliSystems engineering judgement: turning user needs into testable requirements, managing interfaces and closing technical risks. /liliYou have experience with uncertainty quantification and quality control. /liliYou get things done; br / br / you execute fast and with high standards. /liliYou’re persistent and unblock yourself. /liliYou communicate clearly and directly. /liliYou challenge ideas to get to the right answer. /liliYou operate independently and make informed decisions autonomously. /liliValid Swiss work permit or Swiss citizenship /liliBig plus if you’re an endurance athlete or actively care about performance measurement and self-quantification. /li /ulpYou’ll work from our office in the center of Zürich, alongside a small, dynamic, interdisciplinary team that moves fast and argues constructively.
