Electrical Engineer IV

ACV Auctions

Who we are looking for:A Engineer IV, Electrical to drive the design, validation, and production-grade deployment of our next-generation hardware platforms. In this role, you will bridge the gap between experimental R&D prototypes and scalable, mass-producible systems designed for rugged, real-world environments. You are a highly technical, hands-on engineer with a passion for end-to-end hardware development—from conceptual design, schematic capture, and high-speed PCB layout to laboratory testing, firmware integration, and manufacturing scale-up. You will work cross-functionally with systems, mechanical, firmware, and safety teams to deliver robust, high-performance, and secure hardware architectures.What you will do:Lead the hardware lifecycle from concept, schematic capture, and PCB layout/routing to high-volume manufacturing hand-off.Decompose system-level product requirements into testable component and subsystem specifications covering compute, sensing, communication, and power distribution.Optimize and ruggedize early-stage prototypes, ensuring experimental hardware is redesigned for manufacturability (DFM), assembly (DFA), reliability, and cost-efficiency.Build out test frameworks, write test plans, and lead bring-up, debugging, and validation campaigns using multimeters, oscilloscopes, and logic analyzers.Partner closely with Mechanical Engineers on packaging, thermal management, and ingress protection (IP) for high-vibration and extreme-temperature environments. Coordinate with Firmware and Software teams to align on timing budgets, register maps, and peripheral interfaces.Package and integrate high-performance edge compute modules (e.g., NVIDIA Jetson) with multiple sensing modalities (cameras, LiDAR, radar, IMUs).Lead root-cause analysis for cross-domain hardware failures surfaced during bring-up, environmental testing, or field operation, and feed findings back into the design loop.Oversee manufacturing partners, direct the fabrication of prototypes, and troubleshoot assembly line issues to ensure high-quality yield.What you will need:Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechatronics, or equivalent technical field.8+ years of professional experience in hardware engineering, taking complex electronic systems from concept through mass-production (EVT, DVT, PVT, SOP).Extensive experience with industry-standard EDA tools (such as Altium Designer or Cadence Allegro) for multi-layer PCB design, high-speed routing, and signal integrity.Strong understanding of power distribution, low-noise analog circuitry, high-speed digital design, and protection circuitry.Hands-on experience with serial and network communication buses, including I2C, SPI, UART, CAN/CAN FD, RS232/RS485, USB, PCIe, Ethernet and automotive ethernet.Experience working with high-speed serial interfaces (e.g., GMSL, FPD-Link) and integrating modern sensing technologies (cameras, LiDAR, radar, and GNSS).Competency in scripting and low-level programming (Python, C/C++, or Bash) to write custom firmware verification tools, automate test equipment, and analyze raw sensor data.Deep familiarity with modern microcontroller architectures (such as STM32, NXP, TI, ARM Cortex chipsets) and secure boot/hardware security concepts.Familiarity with hardware testing and deployment standards for high reliability systems, such as IEC 60068, AEC or automotive functional safety standards (ISO 26262).Experience in leveraging AI tools to accelerate Mechanical Engineering workflowAbility to read, write, speak, and understand English.#LI-AM3JobFamilyProduct & TechnologyJobFunctionR&DPayTypeSalaryHiringMinRate127000HiringMaxRate159000
