Printed Circuit Board Design Engineer

Affinex Innovation; Bayan Lepas; On-site; MYR 72,000 - 108,000; Full time

Job summary

Jora Malaysia is seeking a PCB designer to design, layout, and optimize printed circuit boards (PCBs) to ensure reliable hardware functionality, manufacturing efficiency, and performance.

You will translate schematics into production-ready layouts, manage footprints and symbols, run design rule checks, and document Gerber files, BOMs, and assembly drawings to support the full prototyping-to-manufacturing workflow.

Qualifications

• Proven hands-on PCB design, schematic capture, and multi-layer board layout experience.
• Proficiency in EDA software (Altium Designer), strong understanding of signal integrity, trace impedance, and thermal management.
• Diploma in Electrical/Electronic Engineering (graduate by 2027) or related technical discipline.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, meticulous attention to detail, and ability to collaborate in a cross-functional engineering team.

Responsibilities

• Design, layout, and route high-density PCBs using advanced EDA tools while adhering to signal and power integrity standards.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers and manufacturing teams to review schematics, define board constraints, and resolve DFM issues prior to production.
• Create, manage, and verify component footprints and schematic symbols to maintain an accurate and reliable internal component library.
• Perform design rule checks (DRC) and layout simulations to identify and mitigate potential electrical, thermal, or mechanical bottlenecks.
• Document and maintain comprehensive manufacturing packages, including Gerber files, BOM, and assembly drawings.
