Join an innovative team through Aquent, a leading partner in connecting top talent with groundbreaking opportunities. Our client is at the forefront of designing advanced electronic hardware for the most demanding applications, pushing the boundaries of what?s possible in a dynamic and fast-paced environment. This is your chance to contribute to cutting-edge technology that impacts millions, shaping the future of next-generation products.
Are you a passionate and bench-strong Electrical Engineer ready to make a significant impact? This is a unique opportunity to own the complete lifecycle of complex digital board designs, driving a digital subsystem from a blank schematic to a fully validated board. As a Senior Electrical Design Engineer, you will be instrumental in bringing cutting-edge hardware to life, contributing directly to the success of our client?s next-generation products. If you thrive on debugging hardware, chasing root causes, and delivering robust solutions, this role offers unparalleled influence and growth, requiring you to be comfortable owning ambiguity and rigorously documenting and clearly communicating with cross-functional teams. Your expertise will be critical in developing robust, high-performance hardware that underpins groundbreaking innovations.
What You?ll Do
- Design complex multi-layer digital PCBs: schematic capture, component selection, and design reviews for processor/FPGA/SoC-based boards.
- Define and constrain high-speed digital interfaces, including pin planning and interface budgeting.
- Own clocking, resets, boot/configuration, and general-purpose I/O for the digital subsystem.
- Perform signal-integrity analysis (pre- and post-layout) and translate results into routing and impedance constraints with layout.
- Partner with layout on routing of dense, high-pin-count devices.
- Own digital bring-up: power-on hand-off, clocking, interface initialization, and link validation.
- Debug in the lab using appropriate high-speed instrumentation and a structured methodology.
- Write and execute functional and interface test plans across operating conditions; document results and drive root-cause of failures.
- Support hardware/firmware/software integration and debug.
- Contribute to manufacturing readiness: design-for-manufacturability/test, bring-up procedures, and documentation.
Must-Have Qualifications
- 5+ years of relevant experience.
- Bachelor?s degree in Electrical Engineering (or equivalent) and hands-on digital hardware design experience.
- Demonstrated ownership of a complex digital board from schematic through bring-up and validation.
- Strong high-speed digital design fundamentals.
- Experience with high-speed memory and/or high-speed serial interfaces.
- Proficiency with industry-standard schematic capture and PCB (EDM) design tools.
- Hands-on lab proficiency with high-speed test equipment and a structured debug methodology.
- Ability to read datasheets, reference manuals, and user guides and turn them into correct design decisions.
Nice-to-Have Qualifications
- Experience with processor/FPGA/SoC-based hardware design and associated toolchains.
- High-speed memory or serial-interface design and bring-up experience.
- Signal-integrity simulation experience.
- Experience bringing up embedded processors/SoCs and working alongside firmware/software.
- High-reliability or harsh-environment design experience.
- Scripting for test automation and data analysis.
- Experience with Siemens Xpeditions tool chain.
