Job Title: Electrical Design Engineer (Altium / SOM & SBC Design)

Location: Cedarburg, WI - Onsite Only


About the Role

We are Looking for highly skilled Electrical Design Engineer experienced in developing complex embedded hardware platforms based on NXP i.MX System-on-Modules (SOMs) and Single-Board Computers (SBCs). The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience in Altium Designer, from schematic capture through layout, routing, and board bring-up.

You will play a key role in designing, routing, and validating next-generation IoT and wireless embedded solutions, collaborating closely with firmware and mechanical teams to ensure production-ready, high-performance designs.


Key Responsibilities

  • Perform full-lifecycle PCB design schematic capture, layout, and routing using Altium Designer.

  • Design and route high-speed digital interfaces including DDR, eMMC, HDMI, USB, Ethernet, LVDS, SDIO, SPI, and I C.

  • Develop and validate power distribution networks, ensuring signal integrity and EMC compliance.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with firmware, mechanical, and test engineers for hardware bring-up and verification.

  • Create and maintain BOMs, design documentation, and fabrication/assembly packages.

  • Participate in DFM/DFT reviews and contribute to design and peer review processes.

  • Troubleshoot and debug hardware during prototype and validation phases.



Required Qualifications

  • Bachelor s or master s degree in electrical or computer engineering.

  • Expert-level proficiency in Altium Designer (schematic capture and PCB layout).

  • Proven experience designing NXP i.MX, TI Sitara, or similar SOM/SBC hardware.

  • Strong understanding of high-speed signal design, impedance control, power regulation, and EMC considerations.

  • In-depth knowledge of standard communication interfaces USB, Ethernet, SPI, I C, LVDS, SDIO, etc.

  • Ability to work onsite in Cedarburg, WI (preferred).

  • Excellent documentation, analytical, and communication skills.



Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with IoT or wireless product design.

  • Hands-on experience with board bring-up and debugging tools (oscilloscope, logic analyzer, etc.).

  • Familiarity with compliance, validation, and certification processes.
