Job Details
Eikon Therapeutics is a new biopharmaceutical company employing
revolutionary technology at the intersection of chemistry,
engineering, computation, and biology to discover novel treatments
for life-threatening diseases. Eikon's discovery platform is built
on groundbreaking innovations from its founders (Nobel Prize,
2014), culminating in the creation of microscopes which enable real
time, molecular-resolution measurements of protein movement in
living cells, thereby unlocking otherwise intractable classes of
proteins as drug targets.
Position
The Senior Manager, Systems Engineering will have a key role in
defining and developing the instrument system that powers Eikon's
drug discovery pipeline. We seek a goal-oriented and collaborative
engineer with a background and expertise in opto-mechanical or
opto-electrical systems. As a key member of a dynamic,
multidisciplinary project team, the successful candidate will work
with multiple stakeholders to define and implement an instrument
that meets the required system performance.
About You
You are an adventurous, passionate, and creative engineer eager to
apply your talents to empower a new way of discovering medicines in
a highly interdisciplinary biopharmaceutical environment. You are
excited about the challenges of developing cutting-edge hardware
from the ground up to enable novel technologies and solve
real-world problems, and you will bring to these challenges
enthusiasm, high energy, intellectual curiosity, and technical
excellence.
What You'll Do
- Work with stakeholders (customers, other cross-functional
groups) to develop system-level requirements.
- Define specifications of system-level performance and
verification or production tests to assure quality.
- Implement system-level tests.
- Working with stakeholders to develop sub-system
requirements.
- Perform (or work with others to perform) system-level modeling
and simulation where necessary.
- Support system-level integration.
- Guide and contribute to cross-functional efforts that affect

integration.
- Drive system bring-up, including debug, validation and
system-level production tests.
- Manage optical/photon, power, thermal budgets for the
system.
- Define or support qualification testing of the system.
- Create and maintain design documentation where appropriate:
requirements documents, traceability or compliance matrices, test
plans, etc.
- Participate in or drive sub-system and system design
reviews.
- Support triage and debug of system issues in the field, after
production release. Qualifications
- B.S. or M.S. in systems design, electrical, optical, mechanical
or closely related field with 8+ years of industry experience or
Ph.D. with 5+ years of industry experience.
- 2+ years of experience directly managing people.
- Proven track of developing opto-mechanical or
electro-mechanical systems (for example, in camera, LiDAR,
metrology and instrumentation, drone, automotive
applications).
- Experience in requirements gathering and system
specification.
- Record of working cross-functionally.
- Familiarity with system design best practices, instrumentation,
measurement and diagnostic tools, design of experiments, and
statistical data analysis.
- Some scripting language or instrumentation software ability
(e.g., LabView or Python).
- Some proficiency in analysis (e.g., using Python or
MATLAB).
- Self-driven, and able to work with minimal supervision.
- Some experience with imaging, for example with cameras, sensors
or detectors.
- Some proficiency in design simulation software (e.g.,
Zemax).
- Experience designing products for volume production.
- Familiarity with the following applications:
- Single molecule or single particle detection and/or
tracking.
- Super-resolution microscopy.
- Light sheet microscopy.
- TIRF microscopy. At Eikon, employee compensation also includes
bonus and equity compensation, in addition to several generous
benefit programs, including:
- 401k plan with company matching
