PCB Designer

Hardware Design Engineer or PCB Engineer The Role The team designs advanced phased-array antenna electronics for satellite communication systems, utilizing large, high-density multilayer PCBs with thousands of components, custom silicon devices, and high-speed digital interfaces operating at multi-gigabit data rates. Boards are being fabricated at a pace that exceeds the design team's validation capacity, creating an opportunity for experienced hardware engineers to own board development and laboratory validation activities. Key Responsibilities Lead bring-up of newly fabricated boards, including power-on testing, subsystem checkout, debugging, and root-cause analysis. Plan and execute design verification and validation activities, including high-speed digital testing, power characterization, and functional verification, while documenting results to engineering standards. Collaborate closely with design engineers to identify issues and implement improvements in future board revisions. Contribute to schematic capture and PCB layout activities for next-generation hardware designs. Support downstream integration and testing teams by delivering validated hardware and assisting with measurement and debug activities. What We're Looking For 8+ years of board-level electrical design experience, including schematic capture, complex multilayer PCB design, power distribution, and sequencing. Strong hands-on laboratory skills with expertise in board bring-up, debugging, validation, and use of oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and high-speed test equipment. Experience with high-speed digital interfaces and multi-gigabit serial communications (e.g., PCIe, Ethernet, DDR, JESD204) along with signal integrity and power integrity considerations. Full product lifecycle experience from design and manufacturing through bring-up, validation, and production support. Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, or equivalent industry experience. Nice to Have Experience in satellite, aerospace, or other high-reliability electronic systems. Exposure to phased-array, RF, or radar hardware. Experience working with custom ASICs, SoCs, FPGAs, and embedded hardware platforms. Familiarity with Python-based test automation and laboratory scripting. #J-18808-Ljbffr
