Senior Electrical Engineer

Job Description: We are seeking an experienced Senior Electrical Engineer to lead hardware development across complex embedded and power-electronics systems. You will serve as a technical authority on circuit design, PCB architecture, and hardware validation — mentoring junior engineers, driving design decisions, and owning hardware deliverables from concept through production transfer. Responsibilities Lead end-to-end hardware design of complex analog, digital, and mixed signal circuits including power management architectures, high-speed interfaces, and RF front-ends Own PCB architecture decisions — stackup definition, signal integrity analysis, controlled-impedance routing, EMC mitigation strategies, and DFM/DFT compliance Drive hardware bring-up, root-cause analysis, and debug of prototype and production assemblies; define acceptance criteria for DVT and PVT builds Author, review, and approve hardware design documentation: specifications, schematics, BOMs, assembly drawings, test plans, and failure analysis reports Define hardware/firmware interface contracts; collaborate with firmware and software teams on embedded driver development, register maps, and system-level integration Lead technical engagement with EMS/CM partners, component vendors, and test labs from NPI through mass production ramp Develop DFT strategies and oversee functional test fixture design and ATE implementation Chair design reviews (PDR, CDR, peer reviews); identify cross-functional risks and drive closure of action items Mentor and provide technical guidance to Electrical Engineer I/II team members; review their work and support their professional growth Drive component selection, second-source qualification, and BOM cost reduction initiatives across the portfolio Contribute to hardware roadmap planning and early-stage feasibility assessments for new programs Required Qualifications B.S. in Electrical Engineering or closely related field; M.S. a plus 5–9 years of hands-on hardware design experience in an industry setting, with demonstrated ownership of full product cycles Expert proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (Altium Designer strongly preferred) Deep experience with bench lab equipment and advanced debug techniques: oscilloscopes, logic/ protocol analyzers, VNAs, spectrum analyzers, and signal generators Strong command of power electronics: switching regulators (buck, boost, SEPIC, flyback), battery management systems, and multi-rail power sequencing Proven experience with highspeed digital interfaces: USB x, PCIe, MIPI, LVDS, Ethernet Experience leading or co-leading PCB bring-up and NPI cycles with EMS/CM partners Solid understanding of EMC design principles and experience supporting precompliance and regulatory testing (FCC, CE, UL) Demonstrated ability to independently resolve complex, ambiguous hardware failures under schedule pressure Track record of mentoring junior engineers and contributing to team technical development Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to present technical findings to cross-functional and executive audiences Preferred Qualifications Experience designing hardware for wireless connectivity: Bluetooth LE, Wi-Fi 6/6E, cellular (LTE/5G), or satellite Background with flex, rigid-flex, and HDI PCB design; familiarity with viain-pad, ENIG/ENEPIG, and advanced stackup configurations Hands-on experience with wearable, implantable, or body-worn device hardware including low-power design and biopotential sensing Proficiency in scripting and simulation tools: Python, MATLAB, SPICE (LTspice or equivalent), or SI/PI analysis tools (HyperLynx, Sigrity) Exposure to DO-160, IEC 60601, or other industry-specific hardware compliance standards Experience contributing to or leading hardware architecture reviews at the system level About the Role Reports to: Hardware Engineering Manager or Director of Engineering Works closely with: Firmware Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, Operations/Supply Chain, and Program Management Expected to operate with a high degree of autonomy; sets technical direction within their domain and influences broader hardware strategy Recruiter: Joe Pitino Phone: View phone number on click.appcast.io
