TL;DR · PMU Hardware Electrical Design Engineer

The PMU Hardware Electrical Design Engineer joins a small team focused on developing custom mixed-signal integrated circuits for various product lines. This role involves designing and developing lab validation systems using components such as LDO, Buck, ADC, DAC, Op-AMP, and FPGA, alongside control interfaces like I2C, SPI, and SPMI. The engineer will perform circuit design, schematic analysis, layout review in a PCB environment, and hardware bring-up and debug. Key technical requirements include experience with signal and power integrity, CAD tools like Cadence Allegro or Altium, and proficiency with oscilloscopes, analyzers, and function generators. Additionally, the role involves Python coding for automation and addresses complex challenges regarding power quality and high-speed signal integrity to support silicon development efforts and create state-of-the-art power supply test systems.

What you'll do

  • Design and develop lab validation systems using circuits like LDO, Buck, ADC, DAC, and Op-AMPs.
  • Create schematics, perform analysis, and manage PCB layouts for complex hardware designs.
  • Conduct hands-on hardware bring-up and debugging in a laboratory environment.
  • Perform signal and power integrity (PDN) analysis for high-speed circuits.
  • Select components and guide high-quality PCB layouts through fabrication and assembly.
  • Resolve engineering issues by troubleshooting hardware problems with cross-functional teams.
  • Program and integrate microcontrollers, FPGAs, and logic designs into systems.
  • Utilize lab equipment like oscilloscopes, analyzers, and function generators for testing.

What we're looking for

  • BS degree and at least 3 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Experience with circuit design, schematic analysis, layout, and review in a PCB environment.
  • Hands-on lab experience with hardware bring-up and debug.
  • Experience with PCB manufacturing and assembly.
  • Experience with hardware development from specification to bring up and downstream support (preferred).
  • Skilled at component selection for schematics, high-quality PCB layout guidance, and using CAD tools like Cadence Allegro or Altium (preferred).
  • Familiarity with signal/power integrity, FPGA/microcontroller design, lab equipment, and Python automation (preferred).
