Apply now!Responsibilities

• Design and develop analog and digital hardware for embedded motion control, including power stages, DC/DC converters, gate drivers, and sensor interfaces.
• Execute complete PCB schematic and layout development using tools like Altium Designer, considering signal integrity, EMC, thermal constraints, and manufacturability.
• Ensure designs are optimized for cost-effective manufacturing by considering assembly processes, component availability, and reliability, while integrating Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles.
• Collaborate with PCB fabrication and assembly partners to validate Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Testability (DFT) aspects, ensuring the production process adheres to quality standards and optimizing build efficiency.
• Ensure hardware design compliance with IPC standards such as IPC-A-600, IPC-6012, and IPC-A-610.
• Perform circuit simulations using SPICE-based tools and validate hardware performance through hands-on lab testing and debugging.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (firmware, mechanical, and systems engineering) to ensure seamless integration and alignment on specifications.
• Support safety and reliability engineering activities, including FMEA, FMEDA, and Fault Tree Analysis, ensuring compliance with applicable functional safety standards such as ISO 26262, ISO 13849, and IEC 61508, with a focus on systems involving motion control and power electronics.
• Contribute to design reviews, technical documentation, and mentorship of junior engineers as part of a collaborative product development environment.

Requirements:

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or related field.
• 5+ years of experience in embedded hardware design, preferably in motion control or power electronics.
• Strong knowledge of analog/power/mixed-signal circuit design.
• Proficiency in ECAD tools (preferably Altium) and SPICE simulation tools.
• Hands-on experience with PCB layout, signal and power integrity considerations, and hardware bring-up.
• Solid understanding of EMC design practices, thermal management, and rugged embedded systems.
• Experience with IPC standards and working knowledge of manufacturing processes for PCB fabrication and assembly.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Strong communication and documentation skills in cross-functional engineering teams.
• Proficiency in laboratory work and instrumentation, including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and power analyzers.
• Experience with ECAD tools, especially Altium Designer, and familiarity with other engineering design and automation software.
• Solid understanding of Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) principles and best practices.
• Knowledge of design for manufacturability (DFM) and design for testability (DFT) in electronic production environments.
• Experience with electric motor control systems, including BLDC, PMSM, and gear motors.
• Familiarity with functional safety standards such as ISO 26262, ISO 13849, or IEC 61508.
• Exposure to agile development methodologies and iterative hardware development cycles.
• Awareness of hardware lifecycle management and integration with firmware and system design.
