• Proficiency in ECAD tools for schematic capture and PCB layout.
• Experience with low-power MCUs, wireless protocols (BLE/Wi‑Fi), PMICs, and sensor conditioning.
• Proficiency with EE lab equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, multimeters, soldering stations).
• Understanding IPC standards, DFM/DFT, EMI/EMC compliance.

Responsibilities

• Drive end-to-end electrical design and PCB development for wearable components and low-power sensor interfaces.
• Design schematics, select components, and implement multi-layer PCB/FPC layouts with signal integrity focus.
• Develop test plans to validate electrical systems, power regulation, and sensor interfaces.
• Build, bring up, and characterize prototype hardware; diagnose with scopes and analyzers.
• Create and maintain schematics, layout files, BOMs, test plans/reports.
• Apply EMI/EMC techniques and root-cause analysis to fix issues.
• Manage deliverables across concurrent programs and meet deadlines.
• Collaborate with product, mechanical, firmware, and external partners for integration.
• Assist with DFM/DFT and work with manufacturing toward volume production.
