This is a remote volunteer opportunity with Right to Live Canada, a virtual-office based Canadian non-profit start-up.

------ THE MISSION
Right to Live Canada exists to realize the right to live as a practical, supported, executable choice.
We were founded in response to systemic poverty-driven euthanasia amongst Canadians with disabilities: cases where Canadians choose MAiD because they cannot access the essentials required to continue living. This is a specific form of economic euthanasia: euthanasia where a preferable living future existed, but was not achieved.
That crisis remains our founding application point. It is not the boundary of our work.

The Electronics Lead owns all electrical and electronic systems within the machine. This includes sensors, wiring, power distribution, connectors, battery backup, emergency stop systems, signal reliability, and electronics layout. 
Working closely with the Software Lead and Hardware Lead, the Electronics Lead develops reliable instrumentation capable of supporting repeatable testing and data acquisition throughout the project.
