TL;DR · Senior Electronics Design Engineer

Senior Electronics Design Engineer The Senior Electronics Design Engineer joins the Hardware Engineering team to support the development of MANET radios and advanced R&D projects focused on mission-critical communications. This role involves performing component selection, schematic capture, and PCB design for electrical systems based on FPGA SoCs with integrated memory, transceivers, and power management circuitry. The engineer will design high-fidelity mixed-signal audio circuits, define PCB stack-ups, and perform hardware bring-up and root cause analysis using tools like oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and spectrum analyzers. Key technical requirements include experience with HDI routing, audio codecs, power supply trees, and communication peripherals such as USB 3.0 and 10Gb Ethernet. The role requires proficiency in Altium Designer, Vivado, and potentially MATLAB or Python to solve complex hardware challenges within high-EMI environments for defense and public safety applications.

What you'll do

  • Perform component selection, schematic capture, and PCB design for systems based on FPGA SoCs and memory devices.
  • Design high-fidelity mixed-signal audio circuitry with robust noise immunity.
  • Define PCB stack-up, materials, and design rules to meet performance and manufacturing requirements.
  • Conduct hardware bring-up, testing, and root cause analysis using standard laboratory equipment.
  • Ensure all designs are isolated from and resistant to high EMI environments.
  • Implement digital communication peripherals such as USB 3.0, 10Gb Ethernet, I2C, and RS232 at the hardware level.
  • Design high-efficiency, low-noise power supply trees for complex electronic systems.

What we're looking for

  • Must have a Bachelor of Science Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
  • Must be a U.S. Person (U.S. Citizen or U.S. Permanent Resident).
  • Minimum six years of experience in mixed signal circuit design involving audio and SoCs.
  • Demonstrated expertise with complex mixed signal PCB design and HDI routing.
  • Experience with audio codecs, power amplifiers, and designing high-efficiency, low-noise power supply trees.
  • Experience implementing hardware-level digital communication peripherals such as USB 3.0, 10Gb Ethernet, I2C, and RS232.
  • Strong familiarity with test equipment including DMMs, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and spectrum analyzers.
  • Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or closely related field.
