Job description

What You’ll Do:

• Own bounded electrical engineering deliverables such as design changes, alternate component selection, validation activities, troubleshooting efforts, and supporting documentation.
• Support products through manufacturing and production, including onsite investigation of electrical, assembly, test, and quality issues.
• Create or update schematics, component selections, bills of material, engineering change orders, test records, and release documentation using established processes.
• Set up and run design verification, validation, troubleshooting, and reliability tests using appropriate laboratory equipment and approved methods.
• Analyze results, identify anomalies, document evidence and conclusions, and follow assigned technical issues through closure.
• Coordinate with the Atlanta engineering team through regular written and verbal updates, remote reviews, shared test evidence, and timely escalation of questions or risks.
• Partner locally with Operations, Quality, and Supply Chain to clarify technical requirements, support builds, and resolve routine production concerns.
• Work with local and regional suppliers to communicate technical requirements, review samples or corrective actions, and support component, process, or sourcing changes within assigned scope.
• Contribute technical input during design reviews, manufacturing-readiness reviews, supplier discussions, and requirements clarification.
• Apply established design, safety, quality, regulatory, and product-lifecycle practices; raise conflicting requirements or uncertainty early.

What You Bring:

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related engineering discipline.
• Three to five years of relevant electrical engineering experience, including independent completion of well-defined technical work.
• Professional fluency in both English and Spanish, with the ability to communicate technical information clearly in writing and conversation.
• Hands‑on experience using laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, electronic loads, and related debug tools.
• Experience executing electrical tests, troubleshooting hardware, documenting results, and supporting technical issue closure.
• Ability to work independently onsite while collaborating effectively with a remote engineering team.
• Willingness to ask timely questions, communicate uncertainty, and escalate technical or schedule risks before they affect the work.
• Working knowledge of schematic capture, bills of material, engineering change control, and controlled product documentation.
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office and remote collaboration tools.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience supporting manufacturing, pilot builds, production troubleshooting, or quality investigations.
• Experience working directly with local or regional component, fabrication, or contract‑manufacturing suppliers.
• Experience with OrCAD Capture, OrCAD PCB Editor, Allegro, Altium, or similar ECAD tools.
• Familiarity with digital and analog embedded hardware, wireless products, power circuitry, or high‑speed interfaces.
• Ability to write or modify simple C, Python, or other test scripts used for engineering verification.
• Familiarity with design for manufacturability, assembly, and test, and with regulatory or certification testing such as FCC, PTCRB, UL, or comparable requirements.

Why Join Us:

• Work directly with products, manufacturing processes, test equipment, and local suppliers.
• Build broad experience across product development, validation, operations support, quality, and supply chain.
• Collaborate with experienced engineers and cross‑functional partners in Mexico and the United States.
• Develop greater ownership of electrical designs, investigations, and manufacturing support within a growing engineering organization.
• Contribute to #CareForTomorrow by helping deliver reliable products, disciplined engineering evidence, and practical improvements that reduce waste and recurring issues.

What We’re Looking For:

This role is suited for an engineer who:

• Completes defined engineering work independently and follows through on commitments.
• Is comfortable working as the local engineering contact while the manager and most engineering teammates are based in Atlanta.
• Asks questions early, shares incomplete or unexpected findings honestly, and seeks another perspective when a decision exceeds the assigned scope.
• Uses test evidence and structured troubleshooting to move issues toward closure.
• Builds constructive working relationships with Operations, Quality, Supply Chain, and suppliers across languages and locations.
• Maintains clear, traceable records so remote teammates can understand, review, and act on the work.
