Rugged IoT PCB Design Engineer (Low-Power & RF)

Qareeb; On; Presencial; EUR 65.000 - 90.000; Jornada completa

Descripción de la vacante

Qareeb is seeking a PCB Design & Hardware Engineer to design and validate custom electronic boards for low-power IoT and edge systems. You will own end-to-end PCB development from schematic capture to prototyping and manufacturing support, with emphasis on rugged, battery-powered devices suited for harsh environments.

The role requires hands-on experience with Altium Designer, KiCad or Eagle, RF and power electronics, and collaboration with embedded teams to ensure reliable hardware/software

Formación

• 3+ years of PCB design for low-power embedded and IoT systems.
• Proficiency in Altium Designer, KiCad, or Eagle.
• Strong background in analog/digital circuit design, RF design principles, power electronics.
• Experience with battery charging/discharging, BMS, solar charging circuits (MPPT, DC/DC converters).
• Experience designing hardware interfaces for UART, SPI, I2C, ADC/DAC, GPIO.
• Knowledge of IP67/IP68 standards for dust-proof, water-resistant, and high-temperature boards.
• Familiarity with PCB production processes, assembly constraints, and DFM best practices.
• Ability to run SPICE, thermal simulations, and signal integrity checks.

Responsabilidades

• Design and develop 2–6 layer PCBs for IoT devices, focusing on low-power, rugged, and reliable operation.
• Create schematics and layouts using Altium Designer, KiCad, or Eagle.
• Design and optimize analog/digital circuits, RF layouts, and PCB grounding strategies.
• Ensure EMI/EMC compliance in board layouts.
• Design and validate battery management circuits (Li-Ion, Li-Po, LiFePO4) and solar charging solutions (MPPT, boost/buck converters).
• Implement reliable sensor/actuator interfaces using UART, SPI, I2C, ADC/DAC, GPIO.
• Develop PCBs with IP67/IP68 ruggedness for operation under heat, dust, and humidity.
• Collaborate with embedded engineers to ensure seamless hardware/software integration.
• Work with manufacturing partners to ensure DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and smooth production.
• Use simulation tools (SPICE, thermal analysis) to validate design choices.
• Support board bring-up, testing, and debugging in lab and field conditions.
