Quick overview
Job description
We are hiring a Senior Hardware Electrical Engineer to own the design of electrical systems and PCBAs for mass-produced consumer devices. You will design complex mixed-signal circuits for tight spaces, dense layouts, low power use, and good thermal performance. You will work closely with industrial designers, mechanical engineers, RF specialists, and battery teams.
This is a hands-on role for someone who designs boards, debugs them at the bench, and takes them through production. You take responsibility for the outcome, make decisions with limited information, and make sure the product ships.
Your mission
What you will own
-
PCBA development. Own complete PCBA and electrical system development from architecture through mass production.
-
Schematic and layout. Design schematic capture and high-density PCB layouts in Altium Designer. Optimize minimal space and thermal efficiency.
-
Power architecture. Develop the power architecture, run power analysis, and reduce power consumption in resource-constrained devices.
-
Circuit analysis. Analyze signal integrity, EMI/EMC, and thermal behavior using SPICE and CAD tools.
-
Component selection. Choose parts for performance, power efficiency, reliability, and cost at mass production volume.
-
Test and verification. Develop test strategies. Run design verification, qualification, and production tests.
-
Cross-functional integration. Lead design reviews. Work with product, mechanical, industrial design, RF, and battery teams on system integration.
-
Bring-up and debug. Debug PCBA signals, power, and bring-up issues. Feed findings back into design iterations quickly.
-
Manufacturing support. Support cost reduction, yield improvement, and efficient mass production.
-
Measurable results. Own clear, tracked targets for each board. Improve first-pass yield and reduce rework. Meet power budgets and battery life targets. Pass EMC and qualification tests on the first attempt where possible. Reduce bill-of-materials cost per unit
What you bring
-
Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, physics, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
-
Experience designing consumer electronics products.
-
Hands-on experience with PCB design, schematic capture, and board bring-up in Altium Designer.
-
Strong expertise in power management, low-power design, and thermal analysis.
-
Experience with circuit simulation (SPICE) and mixed-signal design, both analog and digital.
-
Proficiency with electrical test equipment and test planning for product validation.
-
Experience working with industrial designers and mechanical engineers on form factor integration.
-
Strong structured problem-solving skills, including root-cause analysis of board-level failures.
