Jobbeschreibung

Senior Hardware Design Engineer

Huntsville, AL

The Company

Join a global leader in rugged embedded computing solutions serving some of the world's most demanding defense, aerospace, industrial, and commercial applications. With a strong reputation for high-performance, open-architecture computing, the organization develops advanced electronics designed to operate reliably in mission-critical environments.

The Huntsville engineering organization works on sophisticated embedded computing platforms used across air, land, and sea defense programs, as well as high-reliability industrial applications.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

• Work on advanced Single Board Computers (SBCs), FPGA/DSP carrier boards, sensor processing modules, and I/O products
• Design next-generation hardware using Intel and ARM processors, DDR4/DDR5, FPGAs, MPSoCs, and RFSoCs
• Develop high-speed digital architectures involving PCIe and multi-Gigabit Ethernet
• Take technical ownership of complex hardware programs from architecture and design through board bring-up, validation, and production release
• Collaborate with experienced hardware, FPGA, software, systems, product management, manufacturing, and program teams
• Have the opportunity to influence product architecture, engineering processes, emerging technologies, and best practices
• Join a Huntsville engineering organization working on technology where performance, reliability, and ruggedization are critical

They Value and Appreciate Their Employees

This is an opportunity to join an engineering-driven organization where senior engineers are trusted with significant technical ownership and are encouraged to bring forward new ideas and approaches.

Your Role with the Company

As a Senior Hardware Design Engineer, you will serve as a senior technical contributor and design authority for complex embedded hardware programs. You will design, develop, test, debug, and support advanced electronic systems while working with a high degree of independence. You will design digital hardware incorporating Intel and ARM-based processors, DDR memory, FPGAs, MPSoCs, and RFSoCs, along with high-speed interfaces such as DDR4/DDR5, PCIe, and multi-Gigabit Ethernet.

Community Information

Huntsville, Alabama, known as Rocket City, is one of the country's leading engineering and technology communities. The city has a strong concentration of aerospace, defense, advanced manufacturing, and technology employers, creating an environment with a deep technical talent base.

Background Profile

Must Have

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline.
• 7+ years of relevant experience in electrical engineering, embedded hardware design, or electronic product development, consistent with the original role profile.
• Strong understanding of PC architecture, processor-based embedded systems, and hardware interconnects.
• Demonstrated PCB design capability, including schematic capture, component selection, and hands-on PCB placement and routing.
• Strong understanding of high-speed PCB design considerations, including differential signaling and practical effects such as transmission-line loss and crosstalk.
• Hands-on experience with hardware bring-up, troubleshooting, root-cause debug, and product verification/validation.
• Ability to develop test and verification plans and validate hardware against product requirements.
• Self-starting approach to problem-solving and ability to work independently through complex technical issues.
• Willingness and ability to contribute across the complete product development lifecycle, from requirements and concept through design, bring-up/debug, verification/validation, production release, and sustainment.

Desired

• Experience with Mentor Expedition Dx or comparable schematic/layout tools
• Familiarity with ARM processors is good. In-depth knowledge of support processors like network processors, GPUs, FPGAs, etc. is a value-add for this position.
• Experience with signal integrity analysis
