Zusammenfassung

Castelion Corporation in Rio Rancho, NM, seeks a seasoned PCB Layout Engineer to own the layout and release of complex avionics PCBs for hypersonic missile systems. You will partner with electrical, mechanical and manufacturing teams to deliver flight-worthy hardware on aggressive schedules.

This role requires strong technical judgment and the ability to drive layout decisions across analog, digital, RF and power domains, while mentoring junior designers and upholding Castelion's PCB design

Qualifikationen

• 5–8+ years of PCB layout and electronics hardware development experience.
• Proficiency with Altium or equivalent PCB layout tool.
• Experience using NX or SolidWorks for ECAD–MCAD coordination.
• Proven track record taking complex PCBs from concept through production release.
• Experience designing high-density multi-layer PCBs (10–20+ layers).
• Strong understanding of signal integrity, power distribution, grounding, EMI/EMC, and thermal considerations.
• Experience designing to IPC Class 3 / 3A requirements.
• Familiarity with PCB fabrication processes, materials, and manufacturing constraints.
• Experience working directly with PCB fabrication and assembly vendors.
• Ability to mentor junior engineers and lead cross-functional teams.

Aufgaben

• Own PCB layout from initial placement through fabrication and assembly release for complex avionics hardware.
• Translate schematic intent and system requirements into robust, manufacturable PCB layouts.
• Drive component placement, stack-up definition, routing strategy, and constraint management across analog, digital, RF, and power domains.
• Lead PCB DFM/DFA reviews with fabrication and assembly vendors; resolve manufacturing issues.
• Develop and maintain PCB fabrication and assembly packages (Gerber/ODB++, BOMs, drawings).
• Interface with board houses to select materials, stack-ups, impedance targets, and DFX rules.
• Ensure designs meet IPC Class 3/3A and Castelion internal design standards.
• Maintain and expand PCB component library; contribute to layout standards and best practices.
• Support signal integrity, power integrity, and EMI-focused layout trade studies.
• Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, systems, and software engineers through integration, test, and qualification.
• Support rapid iteration cycles and hardware re-spins in fast-paced development env.
• Provide technical guidance to junior PCB designers and review peer layouts.
• Communicate clearly across disciplines and sites to keep hardware on schedule.
