Senior Engineer- Hardware
What you'll do:
-Lead the end-to-end design of embedded electronic circuits and microcontroller-based systems for power distribution, monitoring, protection, and control applications.
-Architect robust hardware solutions that meet functional, reliability, environmental, EMI/EMC, safety, and compliance requirements (UL, IEC, NEC, and other relevant standards).
-Own schematic creation, PCB layout guidance/review, component selection, derating analysis, circuit simulations, and design documentation.
-Conduct prototyping, bring-up, debugging, and iterative refinement to ensure design robustness.
-Drive the integration of analog, digital, and power electronics elements into cohesive, production-ready hardware systems.
-Perform and review circuit-level simulations using tools such as PSpice, LTSpice, Ansys, MATLAB, MathCAD, and other analysis tools.
-Apply strong analytical skills to assess component stresses, thermal performance, fatigue life, signal integrity, and system reliability.
-Utilize FEA/CAE tools as required for thermal, structural, and electromagnetic analysis supporting design decisions.
-Demonstrate leadership in delivering at least two medium-to-high complexity hardware programs from concept through commercialization, including PoC development, design validation, compliance testing, and certification.
-Ensure designs meet global regulatory, safety, and performance standards relevant to power distribution, switching, and protection products.
-Support DVT/EVT phases, test plan creation, root-cause analysis, and corrective action implementation.
