TL;DR · Module Design Engineer

As a Module Design Engineer, you will collaborate cross-functionally with hardware and software teams to define prototype hardware for evaluating new technologies and features. Your daily responsibilities include designing and capturing schematics for digital and analog electrical circuits, leading and reviewing printed circuit board layouts, and building, debugging, and supporting proof-of-concept prototypes. You will execute plans to bring up and validate designs for performance while managing contract manufacturer interactions during system builds. The role requires expertise in ECAD tools like Allegro or Altium, as well as experience with high-speed, embedded digital, analog, and power electronic circuits involving microcontrollers and FPGAs. You will utilize communication protocols such as SPI, I2C, UART, and LVDS while performing signal and power integrity simulations. Technical tasks include failure analysis, root cause investigation, and using oscilloscopes or logic analyzers to solve complex hardware issues.

What you'll do

  • Define prototype hardware to evaluate new technologies and features with cross-functional teams.
  • Design and capture schematics for digital and analog electrical circuits and systems.
  • Lead and review Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layouts using ECAD tools like Allegro or Altium.
  • Build, debug, and support proof-of-concept prototype hardware.
  • Execute plans to bring up and validate designs for function and performance.
  • Manage Contract Manufacturer interactions and support testing during system builds.
  • Perform failure analysis and root cause analysis to solve complex technical issues.
  • Author functional, electrical, and test specification documents.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree or foreign equivalent in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • 3 years of experience in the job offered or a related occupation.
  • Experience using schematic capture and PCB layout ECAD tools such as Allegro or Altium.
  • Experience designing high speed, embedded digital, analog, and power electronic circuits and systems.
  • Experience with system integration for hardware technologies including microcontrollers and FPGA.
  • Proficiency in digital interface communications such as SPI, I2C, UART, and LVDS.
  • Ability to verify and validate power integrity and signal integrity via simulations and board level testing.
  • Experience performing failure analysis, root cause analysis, and hardware debug using lab equipment like oscilloscopes and spectrum analyzers.
