Key Responsibilities
Lead the design and development of analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronic circuits for new and existing products.
Create detailed circuit schematics and perform simulations to validate performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
Own critical technical decisions related to architecture, component selection, and system-level design tradeoffs.
Oversee PCB layout activities with a focus on signal integrity, power distribution, EMC, thermal considerations, and manufacturability.
Review PCB designs for accuracy, completeness, and adherence to best practices.
Evaluate and select electronic components based on performance, availability, lifecycle, and cost considerations.
Lead prototype bring‑up, testing, and design verification activities.
Troubleshoot complex hardware issues and guide corrective actions across engineering teams.
Develop and execute robust verification and validation test plans.
Work closely with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and quality teams to ensure seamless integration of electronics into the full product architecture.
Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers and technicians.
Generate comprehensive design documentation including specifications, test plans, test reports, and ECOs.
Ensure compliance with industry safety and regulatory standards (e.g., UL, cUL, CE, EMC).
Required Qualifications
Bachelor’s degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
Minimum 7 years of experience in electronics design or product development.
Strong understanding of analog, digital, power, and mixed-signal design fundamentals.
Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB design tools (Altium preferred).
Hands-on experience with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab equipment.
Proven ability to troubleshoot complex hardware systems.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills for cross‑functional collaboration.
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with embedded hardware development and/or working alongside firmware teams.
Familiarity with SPICE-based simulation tools.
Experience with products that involve line-voltage or high-power electronics.
Scripting or automation experience (Python preferred).
Knowledge of UL/cUL/CE standards and certification processes.
Background supporting products through manufacturing, sustaining, or compliance phases.
What Success Looks Like in This Role
You independently lead complex electronics development efforts from concept through launch.
You provide technical leadership across engineering disciplines and raise the capability of junior team members.
Your designs consistently meet performance, cost, reliability, and compliance goals.
You enhance documentation, design review rigor, and engineering processes across the team.
