Full Job Description

Hardware Design Engineer

Wasatch Photonics is seeking a highly proficient Hardware Design Engineer to serve as an integral part of an innovative, close-knit product development group creating our next-generation Raman, spectroscopy and Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) solutions.

As a company, we work with leading researchers developing new scientific techniques to revolutionize healthcare, security, food security, environmental monitoring, and materials development & processing. As a Hardware Design Engineer with us, you will help Wasatch Photonics develop new PCBAs for control of electro-optical sensors, lasers, batteries and other components common to benchtop and handheld spectroscopic instruments.

Wasatch Photonics has long been known for its superior opto-mechanical designs for spectroscopy and OCT, drawing upon our own high efficiency holographic gratings. In this role, you will be responsible for creating and maintaining circuits and schematics for boards integrating microcontrollers, FPGAs, CCD and CMOS image sensors, low-noise analog front-ends, power supplies, mixed-signal communications, battery controllers, laser diode drivers and similar components using low-power designs appropriate to battery-powered mobile products.

We offer a fast-paced development environment, a variety of interesting & overlapping projects, and a positive collaborative atmosphere where you will learn about the physics, optics and chemistry underlying our spectroscopy and optical coherence tomography technology. We are here to build upon one another’s talents and succeed as a team.

If this sounds like the kind of challenge and environment that brings out the best in you, then the best of us would like to meet you!

Location: The position is on-site and located in Morrisville, North Carolina (Raleigh/Durham’s Research Triangle). Occasional domestic and international travel may be required.

What We Offer

We know that the best people look for more than just a job. We aim to inspire you with common goals, shared vision, and an environment where you can grow and lead a balanced life – long term. Here’s a few of the benefits that make us different:

Work with and learn from celebrated scientists in the fields of Raman, spectroscopy, and OCT
Specify and use the tools and resources you require to get the job done
Flexibility and compassion in your schedule when you need it
Share in the profits of the business
‘Small company culture’: very little red tape to impede positive action
Planned career development opportunities
Stability of ownership by a large multinational instrumentation company with a focus on innovation

Primary Job Responsibilities

Use Altium to design and maintain PCB schematics and generate orderable packages
Use SPICE and other simulation tools to validate circuit performance before spins
Lead internal multi-disciplinary reviews to identify and resolve potential electro-mechanical issues with interference, grounding, cable harnessing and the like
Lead bring-up of new boards including power and timing validation
Analyze signal timing and waveforms using oscilloscopes and other lab instruments
Keep a sense of humor and positive perspective that transcends setbacks

Additional Responsibilities

Work with firmware and FPGA engineers on pin assignment and configuration, selection of appropriate memory components, control and communication interfaces between ICs, etc
Work with PCB layout engineers through initial component placement and routing review
Support regulatory testing including IEC 61326 EMC and emissions, 61010 electrical safety, 47 CFR FCC Part 15/18 emissions and other appropriate standards
Recommend components and connectors to meet operational product requirements
Work with manufacturing to analyze electrical issues arising in product assembly and customer RMAs
Contribute to other aspects of company development as needed

Required Experience/Skills

At least five years with Altium or comparable PCB design tool
Experience with digital and mixed-signal circuit design
Experience with oscilloscopes, network analyzers and similar laboratory tools
Experience with revision-control systems such as Git, BitBucket and Allspice
Familiarity with soldering, board inspection and rework is welcome
Familiarity with firmware or scripting tools such as Python is welcome
Good written and oral communication skills

Education

BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering or similar discipline
