Job description

Our client, established in 2016, is part of a global group with 6,000+ employees, including over 1,000 engineers and managers.
Specializing in intelligent manufacturing, they provide end-to-end solutions from design to mass production with a focus on automation, customization, and information integration. Backed by strong R&D, strict quality control, and partnerships with top universities, they serve global clients in consumer electronics and smart components with innovative and flexible manufacturing solutions.

Key Responsibilities:

1 Electronic Circuit & PCB Design

Design and develop analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits for consumer electronic products.

Create schematics, PCB layouts, and component selection using tools like Altium, OrCAD, or KiCad.

Optimize PCB design for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), thermal management, and reliability.

Perform signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI) analysis for high-speed designs.

2 Prototyping & Testing

Build and test electronic prototypes to validate circuit functionality, performance, and reliability.

Work with NPI and test engineers to define functional and in-circuit test (ICT) strategies.

Debug hardware issues using oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, and multimeters.

Develop and execute hardware validation plans (HVP) to ensure compliance with specifications.

3. DFM/DFT & Production Readiness

• Ensure Design for Manufacturability (DFM), Design for Testability (DFT), and Design for Assembly(DFA) principles are met.
  
• Work closely with process engineers, SMT teams, and suppliers to optimize component placementand PCB stack-ups.
• Collaborate with FA (Failure Analysis) and reliability teams to improve design robustness.
• Validate FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) and SAT (Site Acceptance Test) for new product designs.

4. Compliance & Regulatory Standards

• Ensure products comply with EMC, FCC, CE, UL, and RoHS/REACH standards.
• Perform environmental and stress testing (ESD, thermal cycling, vibration, etc.).
• Prepare and maintain design documentation, BOMs, test reports, and technical drawings.
• Research and implement new technologies, components, and materials to enhance productperformance and cost-effectiveness.
• Support cost reduction and yield improvement initiatives by optimizing PCB designs and materials.
• Stay updated with industry trends, emerging electronic components, and advanced manufacturingtechniques.

Key Requirements:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• 3-5 years in electronics hardware design, preferably in an EMS or consumer electronics industry.
• Knowledge of microcontrollers, power management circuits, and communication protocols (SPI, 12C, UART, USB, CAN, etc.).
• Experience with circuit simulation tools (SPICE, LTspice, MATLAB, etc.).
• Familiarity with firmware development (C, Python, or embedded systems) is a plus.
• Understanding of thermal management, EMI/EMC design, and safety regulations.
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills for debugging complex electronic circuits.
• Ability to work collaboratively with cross-functional teams (NPI, test, process, and quality engineers).
