The Arizona Center for Telemedicine and Digital Health invites applications for a Post‑Doctoral Fellow in Biomedical Internet of Things (IoT) and AI to design and develop IoT interfaces for biomedical sensors and embedded microcontrollers used with vital‑sign monitors. This is a hands‑on research and development role combining embedded firmware, sensor electronics, secure data pipelines, digital signal processing, AI, and clinical validation to accelerate next‑generation remote monitoring solutions.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and implement embedded firmware for microcontrollers (ARM Cortex‑M, ESP32, etc.) to acquire, preprocess, and transmit physiological signals.
- Integrate biomedical sensors (ECG, PPG, SpO₂, temperature, respiration, accelerometers) with analog front ends and ADCs.
- Develop low‑power IoT interfaces using BLE, Wi‑Fi, LoRa, and MQTT/HTTP for reliable, secure data transfer to cloud and edge systems.
- Prototype hardware and electronics including sensor interfacing, signal conditioning, and basic PCB bring‑up.
- Build end‑to‑end data pipelines: embedded → gateway → cloud; implement data serialization, buffering, and fault tolerance.
- Validate performance through bench testing and clinical pilot studies with vital‑sign monitors; collaborate with clinicians and clinical engineers.
- Ensure security and compliance: implement encryption, authentication, and HIPAA‑aware data handling practices.
- Document and disseminate results via technical reports, peer‑reviewed publications, and presentations.
- Mentor students and collaborate across multidisciplinary teams (clinicians, software engineers, regulatory specialists).
Required Qualifications
- PhD in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or related field completed within the last 5 years.
- Strong embedded systems experience: C/C++, RTOS, device drivers, low‑level peripheral control (ADC, DMA, I2C, SPI, UART).
- Hands‑on experience with microcontrollers (ARM Cortex‑M family, ESP32, nRF52, or similar).
- Proven sensor integration skills: analog front‑end design, signal conditioning, sampling theory, and noise mitigation.
- Wireless and IoT protocols: BLE, Wi‑Fi, LoRa, MQTT, HTTP, and experience with gateway/cloud integration.
- Data processing and scripting: proficiency in Python or MATLAB for signal processing, analysis, and visualization.
- Experience with medical device or clinical research environments or demonstrated ability to work with clinical partners.
- Strong written and verbal communication and a record of technical publications or demonstrable project deliverables.
Preferred Qualifications
- Prior work with vital‑sign monitors or physiological signal acquisition systems.
- Experience with secure data architectures and familiarity with HIPAA, GDPR, or equivalent privacy frameworks.
- PCB layout and hardware debugging experience.
- Familiarity with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP) and containerized services.
- Machine learning or advanced signal processing applied to physiological data.
- Experience mentoring students or leading small engineering teams.
Appointment Details and Benefits
- Position type: Full‑time post‑doctoral fellowship.
- Duration: 1–3 years, renewable based on performance and funding.
- Location: on‑site presence required for hardware prototyping and clinical testing.
- Compensation: Competitive salary commensurate with experience and institutional postdoc scales; benefits include health insurance, retirement plan, and professional development support.
- Start date: Flexible; preferred start within 1–2 months of offer.
