Job description

We’re hiring: Manager, Hardware Engineering | Westminster, CO

I’m looking to connect with experienced Digital & Mixed-Signal Hardware Engineers who are ready to expand their impact through technical leadership and team development.

This is a highly technical, hands-on leadership opportunity focused on delivering advanced high-speed digital and mixed-signal electronics for space and aerospace applications.

You don’t necessarily need to already be an Engineering Manager. This could also be a great next step for a Senior, Staff, or Principal Engineer who has led technical teams and is ready to move into engineering management.

What you’ll be responsible for:

• Leading and scaling a high-performing digital & mixed-signal hardware team
• Maintaining technical excellence across complex hardware programs
• High-speed digital and mixed-signal board/system architecture
• Leading rigorous architecture and design reviews
• Establishing signal integrity, schematic, PCB layout, and hardware development standards
• Supporting complex debug involving high-speed interfaces, large FPGAs and processors
• Contributing hands-on to critical board-level designs when needed
• Driving DFM/DFT and successful transition from engineering into production
• Improving design reuse, modular architectures and platform commonality
• Mentoring engineers and developing technical career paths
• Supporting hiring, staffing, resource planning and engineering execution

What we’re looking for:

• 7+ years of digital or mixed-signal hardware engineering experience
• BS or higher in Electrical or Computer Engineering
• Deep expertise in high-speed digital and mixed-signal board design
• Strong understanding of signal integrity and timing
• Hands-on experience with Altium or similar schematic/PCB tools
• Experience with high-speed simulation tools such as Ansys SIwave or ADS SIPro
• Strong DFM/DFT and hardware production experience
• Experience conducting technical design reviews and mentoring engineers
• Ability to work effectively across RF, power, firmware, software and mechanical engineering
• Strong technical and non-technical communication skills
• Experience with software-defined radios (SDRs), FPGA toolchains such as Xilinx Vivado, aerospace/defense hardware, or previous technical leadership/engineering management would be particularly valuable.

This role is particularly suited to someone who still wants to be close to the hardware while building and leading the engineering team responsible for delivering it.

Due to U.S. space technology export regulations, candidates must meet the applicable U.S. export-control eligibility requirements for the position.

If you’re an Engineering Manager, Principal Engineer, Staff Engineer, or Technical Lead with deep digital/mixed-signal hardware expertise, I’d love to hear from you.
