Responsibilities:
Capture schematics and create multilayer PCB layouts that balance performance, manufacturability, cost, and reliability.
Apply best-practice design rules for signal integrity, power integrity, high-speed digital, analog, and mixed-signal circuits.
Select components based on electrical, mechanical, thermal, lifecycle, and cost considerations while maintaining high-quality CAD libraries.
Perform stack-up, impedance, and basic signal-integrity analyses; run comprehensive DRC/DFM checks to achieve first-time-right designs.
Generate manufacturing files (Gerbers/ODB++, pick-and-place, BOMs) with clear build notes, and document design decisions, test results, and revision history.
Collaborate closely with electronics, firmware, mechanical, and manufacturing teams to define requirements, review designs, and integr...
