Micropolis is seeking a highly skilled High Speed Electronic Hardware Engineer
, to support the design, implementation, and manufacturing of high-speed electronic hardware
. This role is responsible for end-to-end hardware development, including schematic design, high-speed PCB layout, and close coordination with fabrication and assembly partners to ensure signal integrity, reliability, and manufacturability
.

The ideal candidate has strong hands-on experience with high-speed digital design and is comfortable supporting products from concept through prototype bring-up and production.

High-Speed Schematic Design

• Define high-speed system architecture and signal topology.
• Design schematics for high-speed interfaces (clocks, differential pairs, data buses).
• Select components with appropriate electrical, timing, and SI characteristics.
• Define termination strategies, impedance targets, and reference plane requirements.
• Add clear schematic constraints for layout (impedance, length matching, no stubs).

High-Speed PCB Layout

• Plan and define PCB stack-up with controlled impedance and symmetry.
• Route high-speed signals following SI best practices:
  • Length matching and critical length control
  • Differential pair routing
  • Crosstalk mitigation and clearance rules
  • Proper via usage, teardrops, and serpentine routing
• Ensure continuous return paths using solid GND planes and polygons.
• Minimize EMI through careful routing, shielding, and grounding strategies.

Manufacturing & DFM Support

• Apply DFM, DFA, and DFT rules during design.
• Generate fabrication and assembly files (Gerber, drill, pick-and-place, BOM).
• Review and resolve PCB manufacturer feedback.
• Support impedance control, stack-up validation, and test coupon requirements.
• Assist during prototype bring-up, debug, and production ramp.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field.
• 5+ years of hands-on experience in high-speed electronic hardware design (experience level flexible based on role seniority).
• Strong experience with high-speed schematic design and PCB layout for complex digital systems.
• Solid understanding of signal integrity, power integrity, and high-speed interface requirements.
• Proven ability to design controlled-impedance PCBs and define stack-ups for high-speed applications.
• Experience with differential pair routing, length matching, crosstalk mitigation, and EMI/EMC best practices.
• Proficiency with industry-standard EDA tools (such as Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, or equivalent).
• Experience working with PCB fabrication and assembly vendors, including DFM/DFA/DFT reviews.
• Ability to generate and review manufacturing documentation (Gerbers, BOMs, pick-and-place files).
• Experience supporting board bring-up, debugging, and production ramp.
• Strong problem-solving skills and attention to detail.
• Good communication skills with the ability to collaborate across hardware, manufacturing, and cross-functional teams.
