Responsibilities:
- Work within a multi-functional engineering team to bring new products to market.
- Focus on design efficiencies, risk mitigation, cost reduction and overall product quality.
- High speed digital design (microcontrollers and FPGAs) and ability to assess PCB layout fidelity.
- Analog circuit design (power conversion, low noise signal amplification and conversion, circuit impedance control, motor control).
- Apply electrical safety test instruments to perform validation testing and root cause analysis of issues on small form factor PCB designs.
- Provide ownership of projects and tasks and take initiative in addressing technical challenges.
- Assist in the improvements and implementation of product design processes.
- Act as mentor to junior staff and give guidance and leadership.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering w/ 10+ years practical experience
- Project or product design team leader with strong communication and organization skills.
- Deep understanding of microcontroller/FPGA based circuit design and communication bus architectures.
- Proven background in analog design in several areas (precision signal measurement, power conversion, motor control, antenna design, PCB layout/stack-up, other).
- Proficiency with schematic design and PCB layout tools (Cadence and/or Altium preferred).
- Strong background in high speed PCB design requirements (stack-up definition, impedance control, grounding, materials).
- Detailed understanding of DFM/DFA constraints and component layout (IPC standards).
- Foundational understanding of design for EMC and Safety compliance (IEC 61010 / IEC 60601 / CISPR 11 / EN 61000).
