• Determine appropriate design approaches and technical parameters.
• Establish operating data, conduct experimental testing, and evaluate results against defined requirements.
• Select components and equipment based on technical specifications, performance, availability, and reliability.
• Coordinate the fabrication and assembly of printed circuit board assemblies and other electrical subassemblies for conceptual models and prototypes.
• Debug electronic hardware and firmware and provide technical direction to assigned team members as needed.
• Prepare and maintain controlled engineering documentation, including specifications, schematics, PCB design inputs, bills of materials, analyses, and test records.
• Lead and participate in design reviews, technical feasibility assessments, and evaluations of new technologies, components, and processes.
• Collaborate with suppliers and internal stakeholders to resolve product issues and assess vendor capabilities in support of product development.
• Support design verification and validation activities.
• Support product safety, electromagnetic interference, electromagnetic compatibility, and other regulatory compliance activities.
• Support design transfer to manufacturing, including design for manufacturability and design for test.
• Create, document, and manage cable routing, cable harnesses, and cable-management standards.
• Identify and resolve complex technical problems with minimal supervision while maintaining strong organization and attention to detail.
