Project Engineer, Electronics (Hardware)

This role is responsible for designing and optimizing high-speed electronic circuit board layouts, ensuring performance, manufacturability, and compliance with industry standards.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities:

• Translate circuit designs from hardware engineers into PCB layouts
• Design and develop high-speed PCBs (mixed signal, microprocessor-based systems)
• Client out memory buses (DDR, etc.) and processor interfaces
• Manage signal integrity and controlled impedance requirements
• Troubleshoot timing issues and EMC/EMI failures
• Collaborate with manufacturing and quality teams on board production
• Document design decisions, testing results, and validation processes
• Iterate designs to meet performance, compliance, and certification standards
• Support component changes, obsolescence, and vendor coordination

• B.S. in Electrical Engineering (ABET accredited)
• 4 years of experience (or 2 years with Master's degree)
• Strong experience in high-speed circuit design and PCB layout
• Experience with controlled impedance and signal integrity
• Experience designing memory buses and microprocessor interfaces
• Knowledge of EMC/EMI optimization and testing
• Understanding of PCB manufacturing processes
• Familiarity with IPC-A-610 standards
• Strong debugging, testing, and validation skills
• Experience contributing to full product development lifecycle
• Detail-oriented with strong documentation and problem-solving skills

Nice-to-Haves:

• Experience with OrCAD (or similar CAD tools)
• Experience developing PCB design best practices
• Background in regulated or compliance-driven environments
