Senior Electrical Engineer – Hybrid/Remote, FPGA & RF

Knowmadics; United States; Hybride; USD 110 000 - 160 000; Plein temps

Résumé du poste

Knowmadics is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to advance AI-enabled hardware and sensor platforms for cUAS and multi-sensor systems. You will design high-speed digital and RF-supporting electronics, integrate embedded processors, transceivers, clocks, and power systems, and guide hardware from concept to prototype and field validation.

You will work closely with FPGA, embedded software, RF, DSP, mechanical, and application software engineers in a fast-moving R&D environment, solving

Qualifications

• B.S. in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years in high-speed digital, mixed-signal, or RF hardware design.
• Schematic capture and PCB layout experience; Altium preferred.
• Ability to design for FPGA/SoC integration and PCIe interfaces.
• Strong debugging, bring-up, and test-methodology skills.
• DoD clearance eligibility or active clearance preferred.

Responsabilités

• Design high-speed digital and mixed-domain PCBs for RF and multi-sensor platforms.
• Architect hardware around FPGAs/SoCs, RF transceivers, ADCs/DACs, memory, clocks, and interconnects.
• Create schematics, BOMs, layout constraints, and release packages (Altium).
• Support PCIe, USB, Ethernet, SFP/QSFP28, JESD204, I2C, RS-422 interfaces.
• Develop clocking, reset, and power sequencing for coherent sensors and data paths.
• Collaborate with FPGA and embedded software teams to define clean interfaces and bring-up paths.
• Collaborate with RF engineers on mixed-domain partitioning, layout, and EMI/EMC concerns.
• Bring up new boards using oscilloscope, spectrum analyzer, VNA, and other lab tools.
• Troubleshoot hardware, firmware, and system-level issues through prototypes to field testing.
• Iterate designs based on test results, manufacturing feedback, and field observations.
• Support design reviews, DFM/DFT, vendor coordination, and transition to reusable platforms.
• Maintain clear schematics, layouts, test plans, and validation results.
