Senior Electrical Engineer

Core Responsibilities

• Identify system hardware and software components and evaluate inputs/outputs for sufficient performance of design as specified by the product requirements.
• Follow the NPI Process from the concept stage in developing design requirements by assessing architecture and system design options through product launch in defining verification and validation test procedures.
• Support the development of product design requirements, test plans, test procedures, and test reports.
• Develop and implement design modifications to support the launch of new product features, harden products, reduce cost, or improve manufacturability.
• Drive the resolution of technical issues and escalate significant issues to engineering leadership.
• Support new technology and product development plans (schedule, product cost, meeting design inputs).
• Conduct electrical simulations and analysis to evaluate system performance and identify potential areas for improvement.
• Oversee prototype testing, troubleshooting, and validation, making necessary design adjustments to meet functional, performance, and safety requirements.
• Create, design, and develop test specifications for new systems and firmware/software.
• Troubleshoot designs to the component level.
• Collaborate with other engineers, internal manufacturing partners, contract manufacturers, designers, and product specialists to optimize complex designs.
• Create and maintain Statements of Requirements (SOR), schematics, and BOMs.
• Mentor and teach less experienced engineers.
