Electrical Engineer

JOB DESCRIPTION

The Electrical Engineer will be responsible for the electrical design and development of high‑speed, high‑precision semiconductor assembly equipment, specifically Die Bonders. This role requires close collaboration with cross‑functional engineering teams—including process, mechanical, software, and systems engineering—to define subsystem specifications, design electronic circuits and interconnections, and perform debugging at both module and system levels. The position will also involve system integration of designs developed internally as well as by external vendors.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design, develop, integrate, and debug electrical systems for industrial semiconductor equipment.
• Work with power, analog, and digital circuitry, including systems utilizing brushless servo motors, stepper motors, and DC motors.
• Design and implement analog circuits incorporating A/D and D/A converters, signal gain and filtering stages, sensor and encoder feedback, and power amplification.
• Develop and debug industrial control systems using motor controllers, I/O controllers, solenoids, switches, and sensors.
• Integrate systems using standard communication protocols such as Ethernet, EtherCAT, I²C, and USB.
• Create and maintain wiring diagrams and electrical interconnections aligned with existing system architectures; modify or develop new architectures to meet evolving design requirements.
• Design cabling and interconnection solutions between electronic modules, including connector selection and cable gauge definition.
• Collaborate effectively with external vendors and contractors on outsourced design and integration activities.
• Work closely with cross‑functional teams to resolve complex technical challenges.
• Develop technically sound and cost‑effective electrical design solutions.

COMPENSATION:

$40-60/hr.

Exact compensation may vary based on several factors, including skills, experience, and education.

Benefit packages for this role will start on the 1st day of employment and include medical, dental, and vision insurance, as well as HSA, FSA, and DCFSA account options, and 401k retirement account access with employer matching. Employees in this role are also entitled to paid sick leave and/or other paid time off as provided by applicable law.

REQUIRED SKILLS + EXPERIENCE

• Minimum of 2 years of hands‑on experience in electrical engineering in power, analog, and digital circuit design within the United States or supporting the US Military abroad.
• Strong understanding of motor control systems, including servo, stepper, and DC motor
• Proven experience in industrial control system design and system‑level debugging.
• Demonstrated ability to work in a multidisciplinary engineering environment.
• Experience designing cost‑effective, manufacturable solutions.
• Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or other relevant area of study.
• Willing and able to reliably commute to/work onsite in Fort Washington/Upper Dublin PA 5 days per week on a 9 month contract (possible extensions).

NICE TO HAVE SKILLS

Experience with the following tools or equivalent systems is highly desirable:

• Altium Designer (schematic capture and PCB layout)
• Zuken E3 (cables)
• MS Visio (Wiring Diagrams) Teamcenter or any Product Data Management (PDM) system
