Jobbeschreibung

We design and build VPX-style embedded computing cards for high reliability control systems. We are seeking a Principal Electrical Engineer with deep, hands‑on board design experience to lead the digital and mixed‑signal design of our embedded products from concept through production. The successful candidate is a seasoned board designer with strong track record of solving complex technical challenges across schematic capture, PCB Layout, signal integrity, and manufacturing transition. This is a senior individual-contributor role for an engineer who can independently own designs, mentor others, provide thorough feedback during reviews and partner closely with mechanical engineering, internal program teams as well as outside vendors

Location

Farmingdale, NY

RESPONSIBILITIES

Digital & Embedded Circuit Design

• Translate product-level requirements into implementable digital circuits and complete schematic designs
• Design mixed‑signal and digital circuits for embedded systems, including interfacing of Processors/DSP, FPGA/CPLD, Flash, RAM and related memory and logic devices
• Capture schematics and create symbol designs from manufacturer part data sheets: build and maintain the component databook/library

PCB/PWB Layout & Routing

• Lead PWB Design and layout, creating part types and PCB decals from part data sheets
• Create board outlines from industry specifications including PCI, VME and VPX form factors.
• Define routing instructions in collaboration with the design and development team for high‑speed signals and differential pairs, including Ethernet and Serial RapidIO (SRIO), with attention to controlled impedance, stack‑up and isolation.
• Generate STP files and interface with mechanical engineering for PWB form, fit, thermal and mounting considerations.
• Provide PWA input for views and part lists for design and development (D&D)
• Create specification & source control drawings (SCD)
• Write detailed customer reports and technical deliverables

Build, Test & Production Transition

• Work collaboratively with hardware engineering to build and execute test plans that measure system performance, validate design performance and support product qualification.
• Transition designs to manufacturing by providing complete design packages that enable production build
• Coordinate and communicate with management regarding schedule, milestones and technical status.

What You Bring

• BS in Electrical Engineering (or similar) required, with 10+ years of relevant experience in circuit board design
• US Citizen and must be able to obtain and maintain a DOD security clearance
• Experience designing digital and mixed‑signal circuits for embedded system in high‑reliability environments.
• Proficiency with design software for schematic capture, PWB layout and routing.
• Hands‑on experience interfacing DSP, FPGA, Flash and RAM with a solid understanding of communication protocols.
• Ability to perform low‑level PCB troubleshooting and debug, and to write and develop test cases

Nice to have

• Master’s Degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or similar) preferred
• Experience with MIL‑DTL‑23200 requirements
• Experience with AS9100 requirements and process flow
• Experience with schematic capture with PADS Design, PADS layout with PADS Layout and routing with PADS Router.
• Experience with writing VHDL code, simulation, debugging capability and FPGA design for high assurance products
• Experience with the Agile Development Process and the Atlassian Tool Suite
• Experience with ANSI/VITA VPX Standards related to Circuit Card and Backplane Design
