TL;DR · Electronics Product Development Engineer

As an Electronics Product Development Engineer, you will join a collaborative team to lead the design and development of next-generation electromechanical systems for cable preparation and installation platforms. You will be responsible for designing analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits, including sensor signal conditioning, power distribution, and motor-drive circuitry. Your daily work involves integrating embedded processors, managing industrial I/O like EtherCAT, and creating multilayer PCB layouts using tools such as Altium, OrCAD, or KiCad. You will build and debug prototypes using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers while ensuring compliance with EMC, CE, UL, and FCC standards. The role focuses on solving technical challenges in power delivery and automation by balancing performance, cost, and manufacturability to develop reliable hardware for global energy distribution systems.

What you'll do

  • Design analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits including sensor signal conditioning and data acquisition front ends.
  • Develop power electronics and distribution circuits such as motor drives, DC-DC converters, and protection circuitry.
  • Integrate embedded processors, microcontrollers, and industrial I/O like EtherCAT into board-level designs.
  • Create schematic designs and multilayer PCB layouts for control, power, sensor interface, and communication boards.
  • Build, bring up, and debug hardware prototypes using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other lab instrumentation.
  • Ensure products meet electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI) standards and regulatory requirements like CE, UL, and FCC.
  • Create technical documentation including schematics, bills of materials (BOMs), and fabrication packages for manufacturing.
  • Drive product architecture, feasibility studies, and engineering verification to move designs from concept to production.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
  • At least 3 years of experience designing electronic hardware from concept through prototype and production.
  • At least 3 years of experience with schematic capture and PCB layout tools like Altium, OrCAD/Cadence, or KiCad.
  • At least 3 years of experience with analog, digital, and power circuit design including hardware bring-up and debugging.
  • Experience with power electronics, motor-drive, servo-drive circuits, and mixed-signal designs.
  • Experience with high-speed digital design, signal integrity, power integrity, and EMC/EMI compliance.
  • Experience integrating embedded microcontrollers, processors, and industrial fieldbus I/O like EtherCAT.
