• Solid understanding of electrical engineering principles, circuit design, and PCB layout best practices.
• Experience with embedded microcontrollers, including MSP430, ARM7, and STM32 families.
• Experience using development environments such as IAR and KEIL for embedded software development.
• Proficiency in C and assembly language programming for embedded systems.
• Ability to develop and execute electrical verification and validation test plans and interpret test results.
• Experience conducting root cause analysis and failure investigations for production and field issues.
• Proficiency in using laboratory and development instruments such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, SPI bus analyzers, packet sniffers, emulators, JTAG debugging interfaces, logic analyzers, and function generators.
• Experience with PCB design and test for products incorporating wireless technologies such as Wi‑Fi, cellular, and Bluetooth.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

• Experience with wearable consumer electronic products or similar compact, high-reliability devices.
• Experience in research and development (R&D) environments, particularly for digital and analog electronics.
• Familiarity with product lifecycle management and sustaining engineering for existing products.
• Experience creating detailed technical documentation, including test procedures, engineering reports, specifications, and manufacturing support documents.
• Ability to work effectively in cross-functional teams, including hardware, software, quality, and manufacturing.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a focus on design optimization and continuous improvement.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills for documenting findings and presenting recommendations.

Work Environment
