> Own end-to-end electrical hardware design for semiconductor fabrication machines, from clean-sheet PCBAs and circuit development through prototyping, testing, integration, and production. Requires autonomous experience with analog, digital, mixed-signal, and PCB design.

## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Own clean-sheet design of PCBAs and electrical systems for chip fabrication machines, including schematic capture, layout, bring-up, testing, integration, and documentation.
- Collaborate with software, mechanical, and process teams to gather system requirements and independently define targets when requirements are ambiguous.
- Investigate design approaches and perform detailed analysis and simulations, balancing off-the-shelf components with custom solutions.
- Break down complex hardware challenges into execution plans and drive projects from prototype through small-scale production.

## Requirements
- Experience owning electrical hardware design end-to-end, from initial concept through production.
- Proficiency in analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit design, including hands-on testing with multimeters and oscilloscopes.
- Experience with PCB design and simulation tools such as Altium, KiCad, and LTspice.
- Ability to take broad ownership of electrical systems, work autonomously, and adapt in a hands-on environment.

## Nice-to-haves
- High-speed digital design or low-noise analog front-end design.
- Experience with RF plasmas, pulsed lasers, or semiconductor processing equipment.
- Digitally controlled switching power supplies or novel power-supply architectures.
- Control theory, control-loop design, or stability analysis.
- Low-voltage DC inverter design.
- FPGA or firmware development.
- Advanced SMT precision rework abilities.

## Benefits
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance.
- Paid time off, including holidays and sick time.
- Visa sponsorship.
- Life and disability insurance.
