Sr. Electrical Engineer

Job#: 2057314

Job Description:
Located in North Scottsdale, AZ - Long Term - Hybrid Role
Manager notes:
LOW LATENCY, HIGH SPEED DESIGN (not robotics)
Fleet 3 Vehicle Cameras
Robotic arm is in conceptual phase. Will work heavily with mechanical and firmware engineering to make sure first prototype comes quickly and then adjust as needed. Schematics and layouts to come later in Q1.
Manager Notes:
This position focuses on high-speed hardware and circuit design, such as with interfaces like Ethernet and USB3, as well as integrating high speed processors or SOCs - among other electrical engineering hardware design and integration aspects.
Low latency high speed design

• High speed design experience - multiple facets/interfaces but essentially, they are doing robotic arm for vehicle with camera and other aspects.
• Design USB/ethernet for high-speed interfaces and high speed chip set (likely QualComm)
• QualComm Process Integrator would be a plus, but not required
• RF Integration - work with RF team to integrate, just past RF experience
• Will work with external or FTE engineer for layouts
• High speed memory
• Previous collaboration with firmware
• Power supply and design
• Motor controls (nice to have)
• Senior and hands on - designing, testing, interacting with internal and external global teams
• Experience with integrating DDR. What do they look for when doing a layout inspection for DDR integration?
• High speed with different interfaces?
• Cadence/OrCAD/Allegro

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or similar engineering discipline
• 9+ years of industry leading electronics design experience with a major focus on designing high-speed, high-density, automotive embedded electronics.
• Well versed in engineering processes and expectations in all engineering design phases, able to lead hardware design and development from concept to mass production release.
• Skilled with high speed circuit design and verification testing, such as Gigabit Ethernet, USB3.x, MIPI CSI-2, high speed processors, etc.
• Proficient with high speed, low latency circuit design necessary to minimize data acquisition and processing delays in agile systems.
• Demonstrated expertise and ownership of electronics architecture/design/integration and verification testing in several of the following areas: microcontroller and/or high-speed applications processor, image sensors or image sensor modules, memory subsystems, motor controls, power delivery networks, RF subsystem integration, high- and low-speed wired interfaces (Ethernet, USB3.x, I2C, SPI, UART), complex sensor systems,
• Proficient with schematic integration, layout integration, and verification of high speed memory subsystems, such as LPDDR4X
• Skilled with point of load power supply design (Switch mode, linear regulators), power tree development, and power consumption analysis and optimization
• Collaborates effectively with firmware engineering to develop and debug Linux-based electronic systems.
• Experienced with Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuit design and verification testing.
• Collaborates effectively with RF engineering to integrate and test RF subsystems like LTE, Bluetooth, GNSS
• Exceptional hands-on proficiency with electronics bring-up, characterization, and debug using laboratory tools: Oscilloscope, power supplies, multimeters, custom jigs, etc
• Strong schematic design skills using industry leading design tools, including BOM development. Experience with Cadence/OrCAD is desired
• Skilled directing and collaborating with PCB engineers to realize PCB layout: Rigid, Flex, Rigid-flex. Experience with Allegro Viewer a plus.
• Experience designing and debugging products to pass regulatory standards (FCC, CE, IEC, etc).
• Experience collaborating with and managing design partners and vendors.
• Independent contributor capable of developing products within cross-functional and geographically diverse engineering teams
• Solid skills with documentation, analysis, and presentations tools, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint

Preferred Qualifications

• Proficient with motor/actuator selection, control techniques for motion and position sensing, and related circuit design and verification for implementations in automation or robotics applications (Stepper, Servo, etc)
