About the role

Responsibilities

  • Specify, design, and implement electronic systems at both the board and full-system level, spanning analog, digital, and high-power circuits.
  • Own the architecture, design, and documentation of system wiring and harness solutions.
  • Drive cross-functional collaboration with mechanical, firmware, software, and systems engineers to define requirements, build prototypes to validate designs, develop production designs, and troubleshoot issues.
  • Define the strategy for building and maintaining test setups that the hardware and software teams use during development.
  • Lead and perform reviews of specifications, schematics, layouts, test plans, and results.
  • Create and maintain design documentation to support knowledge transfer across teams.
  • Define the strategy for manufacturing and end-of-line testing, lead execution, and ensure successful handoff to the manufacturing team.

Requirements

  • BS in Electrical Engineering or a related technical field.
  • 7+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience.
  • End-to-end PCBA design experience: specification, design, simulation, layout, prototyping, validation, and manufacturing.
  • Strong understanding of analog, digital, and power circuits.
  • Experience with microcontrollers and communication interfaces (USB, I2C, SPI, etc.).
  • Proficiency with test and debug techniques for troubleshooting at the circuit and system level using tools such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other bench equipment.

Preferred

  • Experience with Altium Designer.
  • Experience hand-building PCBAs and wiring harnesses for prototype systems.
  • Experience with in-circuit testing of PCBAs.
  • Experience with electromagnetic compliance (EMC) testing.
  • Experience with mechatronic electrical systems.
  • Track record of taking electromechanical products from concept to production.
  • Ability to work with the firmware team to implement low-level drivers for your boards.

Compensation

  • Compensation bracket: $137,600 - $273,600 per year.
  • Target hiring range: $172,000 - $228,000 (midpoint), adjusted for experience, work location, certifications, and skills.
  • Comprehensive total rewards package includes equity, benefits, and time off programs.
