  • Collaborate with firmware and mechanical teams to ensure clean signal routing, system-level timing alignment, and successful EMI/EMC compliance.
  • Execute DFMEA and component derating reviews for single fault tolerant designs to meet product lifetime requirements.
  • Own full lifecycle development of PCBAs, including specifications, schematics, BOM, prototyping, testing, and release to production.
  • Maintain detailed documentation of requirements and release notes for traceability and compliance.

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of experience designing and integrating low-voltage hardware for high-reliability or high-voltage systems
  • Proficiency with PCB CAD and simulation tools (preferably Altium Designer, *SPICE and/or PLECS)
  • Proficiency in designing mixed-signal and power interface circuits with strong knowledge of component selection and derating for harsh environments.
  • Hands-on experience implementing industrial communication protocols (CAN, RS-485, Modbus, Ethernet).
  • Familiarity with EMI/EMC best practices and debugging techniques at the hardware level.
  • Strong board bring up, debugging, and lab testing skills
  • Excellent written and verbal communications in English
  • Willingness and ability to travel up to 10% including internationally
