Electronics Jobs in Alberta (NOW HIRING)

Electronics Design Manager

PulseMedica is looking for a hands-on technical leader ready to influence the next generation of vision technology from Edmonton, Alberta - a growing hub of Canadian innovation. This role is an exceptional opportunity for an experienced engineer who wants to build, lead, and contribute to medical device advancements with global reach. Candidates across Canada may be considered for a hybrid arrangement that includes regular travel to our Edmonton headquarters.

In this role, you'll report directly to the CTO and lead a skilled team of electronics engineers while applying your own expertise in
analog/mixedsignal and FPGA design. It's a true playercoach position: you'll manage the Electronics Design team, guide technical execution, and stay actively involved in handson development.

We welcome applicants from Canada and abroad. For Canadian-based candidates, we offer a hybrid work model with consistent onsite collaboration in Edmonton. For the right individual, we also provide relocation support, immigration assistance, and the opportunity to join a company reshaping ophthalmic care on a global scale.
