  • Experience: 5+ years of professional experience in ECAD library management or PCB design.
  • Education: Associate or Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Technology, or a related technical field.
  • Expert-level proficiency in at least one major ECAD tool suite (e.g., Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, Altium Designer, or Siemens Xpedition).
  • Strong familiarity with IPC-7351 (Generic Requirements for Surface Mount Design and Land Pattern Standards).
  • Attention to Detail: Proven ability to interpret complex datasheets and translate them into precise digital models.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Knowledge of AI models and scripting (Python or SKILL) to automate library tasks.
  • Experience working in a high-speed networking or telecommunications hardware environment (e.g., Cisco-style hardware development)
  • Familiarity with Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) requirements as they relate to component footprints

Soft Skills
