Stryker is seeking a Staff Software Design Quality Engineer to support our Smart Care division's growing portfolio of digital, connected, cloud-based, and software-enabled healthcare solutions. This role sits at the intersection of software development, quality systems, risk management, and regulatory compliance, partnering closely with software engineering teams to ensure quality is integrated throughout the software development lifecycle.

  • Guide product development teams through software development lifecycle requirements, quality system processes, and design control documentation.
  • Conduct risk assessments, software Failure Modes and Effects Analyses (FMEA), security risk reviews, and change-impact assessments throughout product development and sustaining activities.
  • Review quality deliverables, design documentation, and release readiness packages to ensure compliance with applicable quality and regulatory requirements.
  • Develop and improve quality procedures, work instructions, templates, and governance frameworks that support scalable software development practices.
  • Support audit and inspection readiness activities, including evidence collection, gap assessments, corrective actions, and compliance monitoring.
  • Integrate quality and risk management practices into Agile, DevOps, and continuous integration/continuous deployment environments.
  • Partner with engineering, cybersecurity, regulatory, privacy, information technology, and operations teams to drive quality-focused decision-making and process improvement initiatives.

  • Experience with software risk management, software Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), security risk assessments, defect management, software verification, and software validation activities.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in Computer Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
  • Experience supporting regulated software products, including Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), software-enabled medical systems, digital health, or telehealth solutions.
  • Experience with medical device quality and regulatory standards, including FDA regulations, IEC 62304, IEC 82304, or related frameworks.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
