Position Description:Design products utilizing engineering principles. Apply best practices, lessons learned and innovative design techniques to achieve a reliable product at a competitive cost.
Job Responsibilities:- Design circuits schematic and PCB layout implementation using industry standard tools.
- Strive to simplify the design, make it easy to manufacture, mistake proof, attempt to anticipate areas of large variation and attempt to maximize design robustness.
- Perform tolerance stack up/worst case circuit analyses (Extreme Value, RMS or Monte Carlo as required).
- Capture and codify WCCA lessons learned.
- Perform power integrity (PDN, IRdrop) and signal integrity analysis as required.
- Generate professional reports and make changes as necessary based on findings.
- Confer with other engineering teams and cross-functional team members on a frequent basis to ensure all aspects of the design are coming together seamlessly.
- Participate in technical design reviews to ensure compliance with design requirements.
- Generate, check and approve necessary engineering documentation required for material procurement and quality assurance of products designed (drawings - assembly and component, schematics, Bill(s) of Materials, specifications etc.).
- Participate in the building and construction of assemblies in early prototype stages.
- Define stress test routines required to validate functional sections.
- Document failure modes and feedback to improve design requirements.
- Lead the resolution of functional abnormalities observed in module designs.
- Ensure OEM and industry lessons learned are documented in the associated quality history.
Skills Required:Hardware Experience, Simulations, Product Design, Analogue Electronics, Electrical
Experience Required:- Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field of study
