Take the lead in defining and driving Quality and Reliability targets for IGT Systems’ medical software, ensuring our solutions meet stringent performance standards and deliver consistent, high-impact outcomes in clinical environments.

Beyond setting targets, you’ll serve as a technical coach, providing hands-on guidance to project teams and ensuring compliance with regulatory and internal quality standards. Your role will be pivotal in translating system-level requirements into actionable quality strategies, identifying risk early, and embedding reliability into every stage of development.

Your role:

  • Ensuring that appropriate Quality plans include all stages of the product’s lifecycle and support Quality Plan design for Software
  • Validating key design inputs like usability, reliability, performance, supportability, manufacturability, localizability, safety, security, privacy serviceability, sustainability and costs
  • Providing effective oversight on the execution of the Software Quality Plan, risk management activities and all design related activities during the lifecycle
  • Leading quality problem solving
  • Drive Design for Reliability and Design for Six Sigma
  • Acting as a single point of contact in project teams for End2End Design Software Quality
  • Ensure the voice of the customer is represented in project teams
  • Using post-market data for analytics and statistics to report on the product’s performance in the market (provide feedback to manufacturing, suppliers, or design teams) and initiate field actions when required
  • Ensuring the product’s design quality related requirements/criteria are complete and meet the Quality standards for every project milestone
  • Making substantial contribution to integrate reliability engineering activities with the medical device development activities

You're the right fit if:

  • Master’s degree or Bachelor's degree in engineering, science or a technical field.
  • Minimum 7 years of experience in software engineering, software design or software development
  • Prior experience in quality engineering or a demonstrated interest in quality-related disciplines is strongly preferred
  • Certification in Design for Six Sigma (DfSS) at Green Belt or Black Belt level is advantageous
