Hardware Design Engineer

Description

The primary function of this role will be as a Hardware designer on complex, digital and mixed signal systems including architecture, hardware design, hardware bring-up of PCB designs incorporating FPGA devices, exploration of technology, system performance and specification to design and test. The person will also be responsible for defining system requirements and integration, debug and bring-up of hardware in a lab environment. • Responsible for the electrical design of analog and digital circuits through all phases; from the requirements analysis and concept development to the end of hardware qualification. • Uses computer assisted engineering and design software and equipment to perform engineering and design tasks. • Determines component required to meet the performance and functional requirements • Creates Schematic and drives PCB Layout using Siemens Xpedition tools. • Work with Signal Integrity engineers to drive Pre and Post PCB routing constraints. • Prepares design documentation and bills of materials • Confirms accuracy of Bill of Material (BOM) and assembly data (CIM). • Confirms availability and facilitates acquisition of new components for builds. • Coordinates the building of prototype products and systems. • Generates and analyzes test data and reports to determine if design meets the performance and functional requirements • Responsible for determining root cause of product nonperformance utilizing appropriate test equipment. • Participate in Design Reviews • Work both independently and as part of a team • Other duties as assigned by management
