Job Description

As a member of the electronics hardware team as Senior Hardware Design Engineer, you will be responsible for hands-on design and development, architecting, lab testing, and troubleshooting electronics circuits and systems. You will join a team dedicated to raising the standards for advanced electronics and contribute to their continuous improvement. You will help build robust electronics impervious to the hostility of various application environments.

Responsibilities

  • Design and development of digital and analog electronics for control of high power electronics systems, Charger DC to DC convertor and Motor controller application
  • Start to finish ownership of control boards and other electronics - from specification to design, prototype, and manufacturing
  • Collaborative work with mechanical, digital control, thermal design, and manufacturing test engineers
  • Product level electrical design including component selection, branch circuit design and insulation coordination

Requirements

  • 5+ years of demonstrated successful experience in electrical engineering within a product design and manufacturing environment
  • Automotive/Charger design know-how & familiarity with AIS Standards, Functional safety (ISO26262)
  • Experience with Altium Designer for Schematic & PCB layout design
  • Start to finish ownership of control boards and other electronics - from specification to design, prototype, and manufacturing
  • Experience with high current power semiconductor selection (IGBTs, MOSFET's, and Diodes), gate drive and protection circuit design
  • Familiar with schematic capture and power converter circuit simulation tools
  • Experience in the selection and use of DSPs, microcontrollers, and programmable logic devices and their peripheral circuitry (signal conditioning, board-level power supplies)
  • Experience in supervision of PCB layout for minimal stray inductance and capacitance, placement strategies for better manufacturability, power/signal plane definition, and EMC optimization
  • Knowledge in environmental, reliability, and safety requirements for Automotive, Industrial & Residential applications
  • Collaborate with BMS HW/FW engineering team to successfully to design, validate and deploy testing tools
  • Perform DFMEA, FMEDA, HARA, Worst Case Analysis (WCA), Component Stress Sheets
  • Product level electrical design including component selection, branch circuit design and insulation coordination
  • Experience in designing and supervising circuit design and PCB layout for EMI/EMC compliance independently with little to no supervision
  • Bachelor/Masters in ECE/EEE or relevant field. (edited)
