TL;DR · Electrical Design Engineer

Electrical Design Engineer The Electrical Design Engineer joins the development team to focus on PCB development for medical equipment. This role involves designing schematics featuring FPGAs, SoCs, memories, communication devices, analog components, ADCs, DACs, motion control systems, and power supplies. The engineer collaborates with cross-functional teams including mechanical, software, and verification members to drive products from concept to manufacturing. Key responsibilities include assisting layout designers with placement, routing, and stackup while ensuring signal integrity, EMC compliance, and manufacturability. Candidates must utilize tools such as PSpice, LTSpice, and Hyperlynx for circuit simulation. The role requires hands-on experience in a lab environment using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers to test and troubleshoot PCBAs. Essential skills include high-speed circuit design, electrical safety, and DFM principles to solve complex hardware challenges within the medical technology domain.

What you'll do

  • Develop schematics for FPGAs, SoCs, memory, communication devices, and power systems.
  • Guide layout designers on placement, routing, stackup, signal quality, and manufacturability.
  • Simulate circuits using tools such as PSpice, LTSpice, and Hyperlynx.
  • Apply high-speed design principles, signal integrity analysis, and EMC standards to circuit designs.
  • Test, characterize, and troubleshoot PCBAs to ensure optimal performance.
  • Define and develop test procedures for design verification.
  • Use oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab equipment to validate hardware.

What we're looking for

  • BS/MS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
  • At least 7 years of experience designing complex PCBs with high-speed digital, analog, and power electronics.
  • Ability to demonstrate a solid understanding of analog, digital, power, communication, and mixed-signal circuits.
  • Experience designing circuits using common signal integrity techniques.
  • Experience taking multiple complex boards through the layout process by providing detailed constraints to designers.
  • Ability to define and develop test procedures and perform design verification in a lab environment with standard test equipment.
  • Good written and verbal communication skills.
  • Export Control: “A successful candidate.
