Sr Hardware Engineer Lead
- .
- Skills: list: "Hardware, Project management, Hardware design, Hardware test, Python". Also "Top Skills Details Hardware,Project management,Hardware design,Hardware test,Python". So we can list these.
- Qualifications: includes Additional Skills & Qualifications bullet list: Bachelor's degree required, Master's preferred, 3–7 years experience, proven experience taking products from concept through production and sustaining engineering, experience supporting manufacturing, production, supply chain, field technical support, experience working in cross-functional product development teams. Then Technical Skills list: Strong knowledge of analog, digital, mixed-signal circuit design. Experience with microcontroller-based embedded systems and common communication interfaces (SPI, I²C, UART, CAN, USB, Ethernet). Experience designing power supplies, sensor interfaces, and battery-powered products. Proficiency with schematic capture, PCB design, and PCB layout review using tools such as PADS, Altium Designer, or OrCAD. Familiarity with signal integrity, EMC/EMI mitigation, Design for Manufacturability (DFM), and Design for Testability (DFT). Experience using laboratory equipment, including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, digital multimeters, and power supplies. Ability to troubleshoot complex hardware issues and perform root cause analysis. Experience with product validation, environmental testing, and regulatory compliance (FCC, CE, UL, EMC, HazLoc preferred). Working knowledge of Engineering Change Notice (ECN) processes, configuration management, and engineering documentation. Familiarity with embedded firmware development and debugging is preferred. Software/middleware expertise – knowledge of python, c, c++, linux systems.
- Experience Level: Expert Level (maybe part of Qualifications? Could be separate but we can include under Qualifications or maybe a separate section "Experience". But we have no explicit "Experience" heading; we could put under Qualifications.
- Job Type & Location: "This is a Permanent position based out of Jacksonville, FL." Also "Workplace Type This is a fully onsite position in Jacksonville,FL." So location and workplace type.
- Pay And Benefits: "The pay range for this position is $140000.00 - $165000.00/yr. Individual compensation offered for this position within this range will depend on many factors, including qualifications, skills, relevant experience, job knowledge, geographic location, internal equity, and other pertinent job-related factors. Salary and Benefits Compensation commensurate with experience Medical, Dental, Vision, Life and Disability insurance Retirement plan with company match Paid time off (PTO)". So we have Pay and Benefits.
- Application Deadline: "This position is anticipated to close on Sep 30, 2026." This is metadata; we can include maybe in a short paragraph but not as heading. The instruction: do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Application deadline is minor metadata; we can include in a paragraph maybe under a generic "Details" but better to drop? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Application deadline is substantive? It's a date; but it's not a heading. We can include it in a paragraph maybe under a heading like "Details" but we don't have a heading for that. Could just include as a
after other sections. - About TEKsystems etc: that's boilerplate about company, equal opportunity, etc. Should be removed as per instruction: Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we should strip all that. Thus final HTML will have sections: About the role (maybe using heading "About the role" or "Position Summary"? The instruction: use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should use those exact headings if content exists. For "About the role" we have Position Summary. So we will use
About the role
and thenwith the summary. Responsibilities:
Responsibilities
then- each duty.
Requirements: maybe we can combine Qualifications and Requirements? The instruction lists Requirements as a possible heading. We have qualifications list; we could put under Requirements. But we also have Qualifications heading. We need to decide: we should not create thin sections; prefer few substantive sections. We have both Requirements and Qualifications content; we could merge them into one section called "Requirements" or "Qualifications". Which is more appropriate? The posting has "Qualifications Additional Skills & Qualifications". So we can use
Qualifications
and include all the bullet points (education, experience, technical skills). That seems fine. Skills: we have a list of skills; we can put underSkills
. Benefits: we have benefits list; we can put underBenefits
. Pay: we have pay range; we can put underPay
. Schedule: we have workplace type (fully onsite) and location; maybe we can put underSchedule
but schedule usually refers to work schedule (full-time, part-time, shift). We have location and workplace type; not exactly schedule. The instruction says include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. So if we don't have schedule specifics (like full-time, hours), we should not create Schedule section. Instead we could include location and workplace type under a generic "Details" but we don't have a heading for that. Perhaps we can put location under "About the role" or as a paragraph after responsibilities. But we need to preserve all substantive info. Location is substantive. We could add aafter the sections: "Location: Jacksonville, FL (fully onsite)." Or we could incorporate into Qualifications? Not ideal. Maybe we can create a section "Job Details" but not in allowed headings. The instruction says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive? It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. So we need to fit location into one of those. Perhaps we can put location under "About the role" as part of the summary. Or we could add a short paragraph after the sections not under a heading? The instruction: Output ONLY the HTML fragment — no /, no markdown code fences. It didn't forbid extra paragraphs outside headings. So we can add a
for location after the sections. But we also have "Job Type & Location" and "Workplace Type". So we can combine: "This is a Permanent position based out of Jacksonville, FL. This is a fully onsite position in Jacksonville,FL." We can deduplicate. Thus final HTML:
