Job Title: Head of PCB Design and Layout Department

Location: Muscat/Oman

Job Type: Full-Time

Department: R&D

Reports To: Technical Director/General Manager

Company Description

Aphcarios Engineering Solutions is an innovative product development company focused on designing and developing electro-mechanical products. We are committed to our motto "Innovate for a better Tomorrow". We are continually expanding our product range and focusing on R&D for various industries including Oil & Gas.

Job Overview

We are seeking a highly skilled PCB Designer/Layout Engineer with a strong background in embedded software development and hardware engineering. The ideal candidate will be responsible for the end-to-end design of printed circuit boards (PCBs)—from schematic capture and layout through to manufacturing and testing. This role requires a deep understanding of design for manufacturability (DFM), component placement, signal integrity, and the full PCB lifecycle, including collaboration with contract manufacturers.

The successful candidate will have a proven track record of designing and delivering reliable, production-ready PCB assemblies and embedded systems for a variety of applications.

Key Responsibilities

· Design and layout of multi-layer PCBs, including high-speed digital, analog, and power circuits using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Altium Designer, KiCAD, Eagle).

· Team leadership, including oversight of junior designers and fresh graduates.

· Collaborate with hardware engineers to translate schematics and system-level requirements into optimized PCB layouts.

· Route complex signals, ensuring signal integrity, proper impedance matching, and minimal EMI/EMC.

· Optimize component placement and board layout for thermal management, testability, and manufacturability.

· Generate and review Gerber files, BOMs, and assembly documentation for fabrication and assembly.

· Work closely with contract manufacturers for DFM analysis, board bring-up, and troubleshooting.

· Develop and debug embedded firmware for microcontrollers and SoCs, interfacing with sensors, communication modules, and peripheral components.

· Assist in hardware prototyping, validation, and testing of board assemblies.

· Maintain comprehensive project documentation and version control of design files.

Provide input into the product development lifecycle from concept to mass production.

Requirements

· Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field. 10+ years of hands-on experience in PCB design, layout, and embedded firmware development.

· Strong proficiency with at least one major PCB design software (e.g., Altium, KiCAD, Solidworks PCB).

· Proficient in C/C++ or similar languages for embedded systems.

· Experience with common micro controller families (e.g., STM32, ESP32, ARM Cortex-M).

· Solid understanding of hardware design principles, including power management, noise reduction, and signal integrity.

· Familiarity with manufacturing processes, including PCB fabrication and assembly standards (IPC, DFM/DFT).

· Demonstrated experience working with contract manufacturers and managing the manufacturing pipeline from prototyping to mass production.

· Strong analytical and debugging skills, with hands-on experience in lab tools (oscilloscopes, multimeter, logic analyzers).

Who We’re Looking For:

· Passionate about engineering and innovation.

· An innovative thinker who can drive product development and problem-solving.

· Experienced leader with a background in design, prototyping, and fabrication teams.

· Entrepreneurial mindset, able to navigate a fast-paced startup environment.

· Strong communicator
