Senior Electronics Hardware Engineering Lead

Key Responsibilities

• Architect, design, and validate analog, mixed‑signal, and digital circuits for new products and internal platforms.
• Own the full hardware development cycle: requirements → schematic design → simulation → PCB layout guidance → bring‑up → test → release.
• Perform detailed component selection, derating analysis, and design reviews for power, signal integrity, and reliability.
• Develop and maintain schematics, BOMs, and design documentation using industry‑standard CAD tools (PADS, etc.).
• Collaborate closely with PCB layout engineers to ensure proper stack‑up, routing, grounding, impedance control, and EMI/EMC compliance.
• Execute hardware bring‑up, debugging, and validation using oscilloscopes, and other lab equipment.
• Support DFM/DFT, work with contract manufacturers, and resolve issues during prototype and production builds.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of hardware design practices, test methods, and internal standards.

Required Qualifications

• 10-20 years of professional experience in electronics hardware design.
• Strong proficiency in analog circuit design, including op‑amps, filters, power stages, sensors, and signal‑conditioning circuits.
• Solid experience with digital interfaces (SPI, I²C, UART, USB, LVDS, etc.).
• Hands‑on experience with PCB design and layout constraints, including high‑speed routing, controlled impedance, and noise‑sensitive analog sections.
• Proficiency with schematic capture and simulation tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD, LTspice, PSpice).
• Strong debugging skills and experience with lab instrumentation.
• Ability to read datasheets deeply and make informed component‑level decisions.
• Experience taking hardware through prototype, validation, and production.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with sensor electronics, DC‑DC converters, or low‑noise analog design.
• Knowledge of EMI/EMC mitigation, grounding strategies, and regulatory compliance.
• Familiarity with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and firmware‑hardware integration.
• Experience with DFM/DFT, manufacturing processes, and working with CM partners.
• Ability to write clear documentation, test plans, and validation reports.

Soft Skills

• Strong ownership mindset and ability to drive designs from concept to production.
• Excellent communication and cross‑functional collaboration skills.
• Commitment to best practices, documentation, contributing to technical reviews.
• Detail‑oriented, methodical, and committed to high‑quality engineering.
