About The Role
You will design, validate, and industrialize electronics for robust wireless control products—covering schematic design, component selection, board bring-up, DFM/DFS, and compliance readiness. You’ll partner closely with embedded, RF, mechanical, compliance, and manufacturing teams to move concepts to dependable products used in demanding environments.
What You’ll Do
- Create mixed-signal schematics (MCUs, power, sensors, comms, HMI); guide PCB layout for signal integrity, thermal, and EMC.
- Drive prototype bring-up and verification; define test methods and fixtures; collaborate with software for board enablement and diagnostics.
- Engineer interfaces and system integration with receivers/transmitters, actuators, and safety-relevant I/O; collaborate on harnessing and enclosure considerations.
- Prepare design documentation (BOMs, specs, test reports); support EMC/EMI, environmental, and regulatory testing with compliance engineering.
- Participate in gated product development, design reviews, DFMEA inputs, change control, and release to manufacturing
- Integrate functional safety principles into design, verification, and documentation.
Minimum Qualifications
- Bachelor’s in Electrical/Electronics Engineering (or equivalent experience).
- 3+ years in board-level design and validation for embedded products (analog/digital/power).
- Proficiency with ECAD tools (e.g., Altium/OrCAD), lab instrumentation, and practical debugging.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience with industrial comms (CAN/J1939), isolation strategies, and robust power design for mobile/heavy-equipment use.
- Awareness of functional safety concepts and product compliance pathways (FCC/RED/UL/NEC, ATEX/IECEx exposure a plus).
- Hands-on collaboration with firmware teams on bootloaders, drivers, and board diagnostics; familiarity with secure design and lifecycle controls.
