Description

Client is seeking an experienced Hardware Engineer or Electrical Engineer with 5+ years of hands-on experience to lead initial board bring-up activities for new carrier card integrations.

The ideal candidate will have the following 3 skill sets and experience...

1) Skilled at electronic circuit design and schematic capture (Cadence Concept DEHDL or equivalent).

2) Experience designing complex embedded digital hardware products utilizing microprocessors, FPGAs, or network switches from concept to completion.

3) Experience with component and system level troubleshooting for digital, analog, and power circuits.


The candidate should possess deep expertise in power integrity analysis, systematic debug methodologies, and hardware troubleshooting at the component level. This role requires proficiency with laboratory test equipment including oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, and logic analyzers, along with the ability to interpret schematics, PCB layouts, and design documentation to verify proper power sequencing, voltage rail integrity, and signal paths. 

 

The successful candidate will demonstrate strong measurement techniques that avoid introducing noise or loading effects and apply rigorous problem-solving approaches to isolate and resolve hardware issues efficiently. Knowledge of power supply design, clock distribution, signal integrity, thermal management, and component substitution trade-offs is essential. This position demands excellent documentation practices, clear communication with cross-functional teams including test engineers and firmware developers, and a methodical approach to hardware validation that ensures boards are properly characterized and ready for firmware integration. 

 

Requirements:

*A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field is required.

*5+ years of hands-on experience to lead initial board bring-up activities for new carrier card integrations.

*Skilled at electronic circuit design and schematic capture (Cadence Concept DEHDL or equivalent).

*Preference given to candidates who have experience as original board designers and can leverage design intent knowledge during bring-up activities.

*U.S. Citizens or Green Cards only
