RESPONSIBILITIES

Circuit & PCB Design

• Create and update schematics and printed circuit boards for embedded digital control systems.
• Select components, manage constraints, and drive design for manufacture (DFM) and design for test (DFT) practices.
• Lead peer reviews for schematics, PCB layout, and design outputs.

Digital Interfaces & Embedded Systems

• Design microcontroller I/O, logic‑level signal conditioning, and serial communication buses (SPI, I²C, UART).
• Collaborate with firmware engineers to define interfaces, timing, and board bring‑up.

Manufacturing & Cross Functional Support

• Plan and execute board‑level validation, functional tests, and environmental/EMC evaluations.
• Analyze test results, troubleshoot issues, and implement corrective actions to meet third‑party requirements.
• Partner with manufacturing to resolve build issues and implement engineering changes.
• Support release to production, including first article review and sustaining improvements.

Continuous Improvement

• Produce clear, production‑ready documentation: BOMs, cost estimates, interface specifications.
• Maintain accurate revision control and change documentation throughout the product lifecycle.
• Stay current with tools, components, and standards in digital hardware design and champion continuous improvement.

QUALIFICATIONS

• BS/MS in Electrical, Electronic, or Computer Engineering.
• 10+ years of electrical engineering experience with a focus on digital circuits.
• Familiarity with analog circuits and power electronics preferred.

Technical Proficiency

• Digital logic, embedded microcontrollers, and internal serial communications (SPI, I²C).
• External communications such as Ethernet, RS‑232, RS‑485 and protection in harsh environments.
• Integrated design tools such as Altium for schematic and PCB layout.
• Knowledge of circuit simulation tools such as Plexim, Simulink, LTspice preferred.
• Knowledge of FPGA/CPLD development and HDL such as VHDL, Verilog preferred.
• Knowledge of IPC‑610, UL/CSA, and related compliance standards preferred.
