It took me a while to figure out that Biomedical Engineering degree tracks were made in response to a need for grad students in this area and not a need in the industry. Industry asks, why hire a biomed when I can hire a mechanical engineer and a electrical engineer. Separate those two parts of the project and have a manager that understands the biology of the problem. The hope for one of these engineers is to get past the usual resume screens and convince the people hiring that they are as good at electrical as the EE and/or as good at mechanics as the ME. Luckily for any engineer, entrepreneurship is also an option.
