About the role

Careers that change lives start here. Medtronic is a global leader in healthcare technology with a Mission to alleviate pain, restore health, and extend life. Our 95,000 employees work across more than 150 countries to put patients first — developing innovative medical technologies that improve the lives of 72+ million patients each year. Your unique talents will help shape the future of healthcare while building a career grounded in purpose, growth, and impact. A Day in the Life We are pioneering the future of medical diagnostics with our innovative capsule endoscopy solutions. Imagine a world where diagnosing gastrointestinal conditions is as simple as swallowing a pill which captures with imagers and different sensors the digestive system and transmit it in real time. Our cutting-edge technology not only makes this possible but also revolutionizes the patient experience, providing a non-invasive, accurate, and efficient diagnostic tool. We are seeking a dynamic and visionary Analog and RF engineer to join our dedicated team, driving the development and integration of our next-generation capsule endoscopy devices. As a Senior Analog & RF Engineer specializing in capsule endoscopy development, you will play a key role in the design, development, and integration of the critical analog and RF communication path between the capsule, located inside the patient’s digestive system, and the external recorder worn by the patient. You will be responsible for developing high-performance, low-power analog and RF solutions that enable reliable wireless communication, contributing directly to the performance and advancement of our next-generation medical devices. In this critical role, you will collaborate closely with System Engineers, PCB design and Layout, Firmware Developers, Modem Algorithm Engineers, and Mechanical Design teams to develop and integrate advanced solutions across the system. You will work in a highly collaborative, open-minded environment that encourages new ideas, creativity, and innovation, contributing to cutting-edge medical technology that enhances patient care. Primary responsibilities: • Own and drive the Analog & RF communication path from architecture definition through detailed design. • Work closely with leading semiconductor suppliers and technology partners on a system on Chip definition, development, and integration of custom IC/ASIC solutions, contributing to system architectural decisions and ensuring alignment with system-level requirements. • Research, evaluate, and define communication receiver and transmitter architectures, including Zero-IF, Low-IF/NZ-IF, Superheterodyne, and other relevant architectures, based on system requirements and product constraints. • Perform system-level RF and Analog analysis, including noise budget, link budget, dynamic range, sensitivity, linearity, distortion, interference, and overall communication-channel performance. • Develop simulation models and methodologies to evaluate communication-channel performance and validate architectural and design decisions prior to hardware implementation. • Design and specify the Analog transmitter and receiver signal paths, including filtering, amplification, gain stages, matching networks. • Analyse and optimize antenna design and RF performance, including antenna matching, efficiency, radiation characteristics, impedance, and interaction with the capsule and surrounding biological environment. • Drive a system on chip designs from proof-of-concept and laboratory prototypes into production-ready medical devices. Required qualifications: • BSc \ MSc in Electrical Engineering. • 7+ years of hands-on experience in very Low power Analog and RF engineering, preferably in wireless communication systems, RFICs, or mixed-signal
