Employment Type: Full time
Job Function: Hardware, Embedded & Systems Engineering
Seniority: Mid level

Key Responsibilities

  • •Design SoMs, baseboards, and test boards for compute platforms.
  • •Deliver high-speed digital designs around application processors, managing layout constraints and signal integrity.
  • •Create and verify power trees, sequencing, and conversion topologies, including power-up and power-down behavior.
  • •Prepare and lead design reviews through milestones up to release for fabrication.
  • •Define verification test plans, troubleshoot boards, and run thermal, vibration, EMC, and ESD qualification with cross-functional partners.

Key Requirements

  • •MSc in electrical, computer, or a related engineering field; PhD is a plus.
  • •5+ years in embedded hardware design, taking boards from specification through bring-up, qualification, and into production.
  • •Expertise in high-speed design, including layout constraints, signal integrity, and validation for systems using external memory (DDR, Flash).
  • •Experience designing power trees, sequencing, and conversion topologies, with verified power-up and power-down behavior.
  • •In-depth knowledge of electronic CAD tools (e.g., Altium) and experience planning thermal, vibration, EMC, and ESD qualification.
