Senior Web/Mobile Medical Device Engineer 🔗
Location: Remote (U.S. only)
Job Type: Full-time
About Us 🔗
Innolitics LLC is a remote-first company specializing in medical device software development and FDA regulatory consulting. Since 2012, we’ve partnered with medical device companies to bring innovative technologies to market. Our team of engineers, consultants, and domain experts works at the intersection of software engineering and regulatory compliance to deliver high-quality solutions.
Agentic AI tools like Claude Code and Codex are changing the day-to-day experience of software engineering. We see this as an opportunity, not a threat. We are a growing, collaborative team that is actively learning how to use these tools to produce robust, traceable, high-quality systems where correctness, safety, and documentation matter.
As an engineer here, you will not only write production code, but also develop expertise in medical device regulations, quality systems, verification and validation, and the realities of FDA-facing software.
If you’re excited by the intersection of technology, medicine, and regulation—and enjoy organizing and clarifying complex information—you’ll feel at home here.
About the Role 🔗
As a Senior Web/Mobile Medical Device Software Engineer at Innolitics, you will play a cross-functional role in both software development and regulatory projects. You will help develop new medical device software, pulling from a strong technical foundation in web technologies and mobile development, and you will produce technical documentation to support regulatory clearance. Additionally, you will help clients with existing software devices who need to remediate or entirely build out their technical design history file, leveraging deep technical expertise and client communication skills to produce a thorough, accurate representation of the software for regulatory submission— in collaboration with our team of regulatory experts.
Your Responsibilities Will Include: 🔗
-
Software Development: You’ll participate in the design and development of new medical device software. You'll write clean, efficient code and ensure it meets both functional requirements and regulatory standards. Your work will involve constructing software systems, drafting software unit and system tests, and implementing robust testing methodologies.
-
Cybersecurity: With support from cybersecurity experts on our team, you’ll guide clients through cybersecurity threat modeling and security risk analysis, ensuring that their systems are secure and comply with FDA requirements. You'll suggest ways to improve compliance with cybersecurity controls throughout the software development lifecycle.
-
Regulatory Compliance: Collaborate with regulatory professionals to write technical documents, such as software requirements specifications, software risk assessments, and software design specifications, in language that the FDA understands. You'll ensure that all software documentation complies with FDA guidance.
-
System Understanding: Engage in detailed information gathering by interviewing client engineers, reviewing technical documents, and examining source code. You'll develop a comprehensive understanding of our client’s medical device systems and help validate that they’re safe and document their functioning.
-
Configuration and Lifecycle Management: Advise clients on best practices for configuration management, AI/ML data controls, and other software development processes required by the FDA. You’ll work closely with engineering teams to implement these processes efficiently.
-
Project Collaboration: Communicate effectively with both software engineers and regulatory professionals, acting as a bridge between technical and compliance teams. You’ll also be involved in planning project timelines, creating detailed meeting agendas, and keeping careful notes to ensure that all regulatory and development milestones are met.
At Innolitics, you’ll be part of a team that is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in medical device software. Your work will not only meet regulatory standards but also make a real difference in patient care.
