Job Summary The Senior Electronic Design Engineer is responsible for designing and developing advanced electronic systems, including system architecture, component selection, circuit design, and integration of complex subsystems.

This role requires expertise in both analog and digital design, PCB layout, and systems-level engineering. Lead the development of innovative electronic products, optimize existing systems, and mentor junior engineers. Manage projects from initial concept through to production, ensuring that designs meet performance, quality, and cost objectives while complying with regulatory standards. Duties/Responsibilities

• Advanced Circuit Design and System Architecture:
  • Lead the design and development of analog and digital circuits, power systems, and signal processing subsystems for complex products.
  • Define system-level architecture and component selection for electronic systems, ensuring performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
  • Develop and validate circuit designs, from initial concept through simulation, prototyping, testing, and integration.
  • Design and implement complex control systems, including microcontrollers, DSPs (digital signal processors), and FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays), as required for product functionality.

• PCB Design and Layout Oversight:
  • Lead and mentor the PCB design process, ensuring that layouts are optimized for signal integrity, manufacturability, and thermal management.
  • Review and approve PCB designs, ensuring compliance with industry standards (e.g., IPC-2221) and internal design guidelines.
  • Oversee the entire PCB development lifecycle, including schematic capture, layout, review, and prototyping.
  • Perform simulations (e.g., thermal, electromagnetic, signal integrity) to validate PCB design before mass production.

• Prototyping and Integration:
  • Oversee the prototyping and testing of new designs, ensuring that the systems perform as intended in real-world conditions.
  • Lead the integration of new electronic components and subsystems into larger, complex systems.
  • Develop test plans, protocols, and procedures for hardware validation, performance testing, and debugging of prototypes.
  • Work closely with mechanical, software, and firmware teams to ensure seamless integration of hardware with other system components.

• Mentorship and Team Leadership:
  • Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior and mid-level engineers, helping them grow in their roles and develop strong design skills.
  • Lead design reviews and technical discussions, ensuring that all engineering solutions meet design objectives and are of the highest quality.
  • Foster a collaborative and innovative work environment, encouraging the team to explore creative solutions and continuous improvements in design processes.
  • Lead cross-functional teams to address design challenges and ensure the successful execution of complex engineering projects.

• Project Management and Technical Leadership:
  • Take ownership of major design projects, from initial planning and concept through to final implementation and production.
  • Coordinate with project managers and other departments (e.g., manufacturing, quality, and supply chain) to ensure timely delivery of design solutions.
  • Develop and maintain project timelines, resource plans, and risk management…
