SummaryWe are looking for an experienced Electrical Engineer to help develop high voltage/power electronics for X-ray imaging applications. Specifically, we are creating a new X-ray source platform that requires a unique high voltage generator. An experienced engineer with experience in the automation of equipment testing and performance checks is required. Any exposure to designing HV circuitry and interfacing with firmware and software for controlling embedded systems, communication, and controls would be an additional asset for this role.
