RESPONSIBILITIES:
Kforce has a client that is seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer in Bellevue, WA.

Overview:
The Principal Electrical Engineer plays a key role in a small cross-functional team designing the next generation of technology solutions for automotive, industrial and consumer applications. You will define system level requirements and functions, then translate these requirements to hardware design in collaboration with others. The Principal Electrical Engineer will be responsible for analog, mixed signal, and high-speed digital circuit design and simulation, schematic capture, printed circuit board layout, component selection, prototype bring-up, design validation and design documentation. You will think creatively and operate within a flexible, fast-paced program dedicated to advancing product development.

Responsibilities:
* Principal Electrical Engineer will be responsible for all aspects of electrical designs to deliver product features, system performance and quality for low-cost high-volume 3D sensing applications
* Independently develop transmitter, receiver, and compute boards to produce differentiated products based on Company's core technologies
* Responsible for the selection and evaluation of electrical components and subsystems
* Responsible for electrical test and prototyping process, infrastructure, and equipment
* Responsible for planning, execution, and reporting for design validation, electrical performance, and compliance with industry standards
* Responsible for board build and bring up, including working with domestic and overseas contractors and suppliers
* As a Principal Electrical Engineer, you will work closely with FPGA engineers, mechanical engineers, optical engineers, system engineers, and related cross-functional engineering team members to meet technology, performance, and schedule objectives in delivering product features and requirements

REQUIREMENTS:
* Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering; Advanced degree preferred
* Minimum 10 years of industry experience or 7 years with advanced degree
* Experience and expertise in analog, mixed signal, and high-speed digital circuit design
* Experience designing multi-layer, high-density and complex PCB
* Experience in DFX and best practices for power integrity and signal integrity
* Experience and proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout design tool, Altium Designer preferred
* Experience with high-speed differential data interfaces: MIPI CSI 2, LVDS, USB, Ethernet; and serial peripheral interfaces: SPI, I2C, UART
* Experience in 3D sensing related technologies (e.g., LiDAR, Radar) desired

The pay range is the lowest to highest compensation we reasonably in good faith believe we would pay at posting for this role. We may ultimately pay more or less than this range. Employee pay is based on factors like relevant education, qualifications, certifications, experience, skills, seniority, location, performance, union contract and business needs.
