Jobbeschreibung

7RD is building the Counter Drone Swarm Stack, powered by our core product: an EdgeAI Module for drones, a neural chip based "brain" that runs autonomous mission planning, target tracking, and navigation entirely on the edge, with no cloud or GPS dependency.

Job Description

Embedded Hardware Engineer

PCB Design and Development

Employment Type

Full-time

Experience Level

2-4 Years

Department

Engineering / Electronics Hardware

Role Purpose

The engineer will translate product and electronics requirements into manufacturable, testable, and reliable hardware. The position requires sound engineering judgment across electrical performance, PCB constraints, component availability, electromagnetic compatibility, thermal behavior, safety, and production readiness. The engineer will work closely with firmware, mechanical, testing, manufacturing, and sourcing teams throughout the development cycle.

Key Responsibilities

• PCB development: Develop multilayer PCBs from requirements through schematic capture, layout, design review, fabrication outputs, assembly support, and final release.
• Circuit design: Design and review analog, digital, mixed-signal, power, RF, and processor-based circuits using appropriate analysis, simulation, and engineering calculations.
• Power electronics: Design power input stages, DC-DC converters, linear regulators, battery interfaces, protection circuits, filtering, grounding, current sensing, and power distribution networks.
• RF communication: Develop PCB sections for wireless communication, including impedance-controlled routing, RF component placement, antenna interfaces, matching networks, filtering, grounding, isolation, and connector selection.
• High-speed design: Route high-speed buses and interfaces using controlled impedance, differential pairs, length matching, return-path management, stack-up planning, termination, and signal-integrity principles.
• Microprocessor routing: Design processor and microcontroller boards with reliable routing for clocks, memory, high-speed peripherals, power rails, reset, boot, debug, programming, and decoupling networks.
• Component libraries: Create and maintain schematic symbols, PCB footprints, 3D associations, pin mappings, courtyard and assembly details, and land patterns for custom or non-standard components.
• Engineering documentation: Prepare and maintain design calculations, schematics, bill of materials, fabrication and assembly drawings, stack-up requirements, test procedures, design-review records, and revision history.
• Prototype validation: Support board bring-up, debug hardware faults, conduct functional and electrical testing, verify interfaces and power rails, and document corrective actions.
• Production support: Work with PCB fabricators, assembly partners, suppliers, and internal teams to resolve manufacturability, assembly, component, and field issues.

Core Technical Areas

Power integrity

Power-tree design, rail sequencing, decoupling, transient response, grounding, protection, efficiency, current capacity, voltage drop, ripple, and thermal performance.

Signal integrity

Trace impedance, differential routing, timing and skew, return paths, crosstalk control, via transitions, termination, and stack-up coordination.

Transmission-line behavior, RF layouts, matching networks, antenna connections, shielding, filtering, isolation, and practical RF measurement awareness.

Processor systems

Microcontrollers or microprocessors, memory, oscillators, reset and boot circuits, peripheral buses, debug interfaces, and high-density escape routing.

Datasheet interpretation, derating, tolerances, lifecycle and availability checks, approved alternatives, package verification, and library quality control.

Design for manufacture

Fabrication and assembly constraints, panel and test considerations, clearances, drill and via selection, solderability, inspection, and production test access.

Compliance awareness

EMI and EMC design practices, ESD and surge protection, electrical safety, environmental constraints, and applicable product requirements.

Requirements

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or diploma in Electronics, Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Communication, Embedded Systems, or a closely related discipline.
• Demonstrated experience in schematic design and multilayer PCB layout for embedded electronic products.
• Strong understanding of analog and digital electronics, semiconductor devices, power supplies, interfaces, sensors, communication circuits, and practical board-level design.
• Ability to read component datasheets, reference designs, standards, application notes, fabrication specifications, and assembly requirements accurately.
• Hands-on ability to use laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, logic analyzers, programmable power supplies, electronic loads, and relevant RF test equipment.
• Working knowledge of a professional electronic design automation tool and disciplined library, version, and release-management practices.
• Ability to investigate faults systematically and communicate technical findings through clear documentation and design reviews.

Preferred Experience

• PCB development for defence, aerospace, industrial, automotive, robotics, communication, or other reliability-sensitive electronic products.
• Simulation or analysis of power integrity, signal integrity, thermal performance, or RF behavior.
• Hardware validation for EMI and EMC, environmental testing, reliability testing, and design qualification.
• Collaboration with contract manufacturers and PCB fabrication vendors during new-product introduction and volume production.
• Designing compact, high-density boards and custom footprints for unusual packages, connectors, sensors, modules, or mechanical constraints.
