Full Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled Hardware Engineer with expertise in analog/mixed-signal circuit design, PCB development, and test systems for rugged, industrial-grade products. This senior role involves designing and validating hardware from concept through production, developing custom test jigs, ensuring regulatory compliance, and supporting manufacturing handoff. Some embedded C and Python programming is required for test automation and custom test fixture development.

To apply, please submit a cover letter that explains your qualifications for this position, highlights your relevant experience, and demonstrates how your skills align with the role, along with your resume.

Requirements1. Technical Skills

Proficiency in analog and mixed-signal circuit design (op-amps, ADCs/DACs, signal conditioning, power management)
Experience with schematic capture and PCB layout in KiCad
Experience designing hardware around MCU platforms such as Microchip PIC, STM32, ESP32, NXP, or similar
Hands-on experience designing custom test jigs and automated test fixtures
Knowledge of cable and wiring harness design for rugged/industrial environments
Familiarity with SPI, I2C, UART, CAN, USB, and other embedded communication interfaces
Moderate programming skills in C and Python for test automation, data acquisition, and interfacing with test equipment
Proficiency with bench test equipment: oscilloscopes, DMMs, signal generators, power analyzers, and automated test systems
Experience with wireless communication modules (BLE, 900MHz, Wi-Fi, or cellular) and their hardware integration
Familiarity with version control for hardware — managing KiCad projects, BOMs, and scripts in Git

2. Experience

5+ years of experience in hardware engineering, including analog design, PCB layout, and product validation
Proven track record of taking hardware designs from prototype through production release
Experience designing hardware around 8, 16, and 32-bit microcontrollers (Microchip PIC, STM32, ESP32, NXP, or similar)
Experience writing Python scripts for automated test systems and C for microcontroller-based test fixtures
Hands-on experience with DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFT (Design for Testability) practices
Experience managing or supporting regulatory certification processes (UL, CE, FCC, or similar)
Familiarity with contract manufacturer (CM) relationships and production support
Comfortable with hands-on lab work: soldering, rework, prototype assembly, and board-level troubleshooting
Experience integrating wireless modules (BLE, 900MHz, Wi-Fi, or cellular) including antenna placement and RF layout considerations
Experience using Git for hardware version control — schematics, PCB files, BOMs, and test scripts

3. Soft Skills

Strong problem-solving and root-cause analysis skills
Effective communication and technical documentation abilities
Collaborative and proactive approach in cross-functional teams (firmware, mechanical, operations)
Flexible and able to pivot between design, lab work, and production support
Self-motivated with the ability to own projects end-to-end

4. Educational Background

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field

Collaborate with contract manufacturers to ensure designs are producible and testable at volume
Define and document test coverage requirements; create production test procedures
Provide engineering support during production bring-up and address manufacturing nonconformances

8. Documentation & Collaboration

Maintain accurate schematics, PCB layouts, BOMs, and test documentation in version control
Write clear engineering reports covering design decisions, test results, and failure analyses
Work across firmware, mechanical, and operations teams to meet project milestones

9. Hands-On Prototyping & Troubleshooting

Assemble and rework prototype PCBs, including fine-pitch SMD soldering and through-hole components
Perform board-level troubleshooting using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and DMMs to diagnose hardware faults
Iterate quickly on prototype hardware, document findings, and drive design revisions based on lab results
Support bring-up of new hardware revisions and assist the firmware team with hardware debugging

10. Product Maintenance & Obsolescence

Identify and qualify alternative components when parts become obsolete or unavailable
Redesign circuits as needed to maintain compliance and product functionality
Coordinate with procurement to address component availability and long-term sourcing
