As a fast-growing space-tech startup, our mission is to revolutionize the way we gather, process, and deliver geospatial intelligence. Join us to become a part of an agile, high-impact team working at the forefront of space innovation.

PCB Design Engineer | 3+ years experience

Role Responsibilities

Component Placement Optimization: Strategy-driven placement of components considering signal flow, thermal dissipation, mechanical constraints (keepouts, height restrictions), and ease of rework.

Multilayer Stackup Design: Configuring layer stackups (typically 4 to 8+ layers), selecting dielectric materials, and determining appropriate plane splits for power and ground returns.

Routing Implementation: Executing controlled impedance routing for high-speed interfaces (e.g., USB 3.0, DDR3/4, PCIe, Ethernet), differential pairs, and heavy-current power paths.

Constraint Management: Setting up and managing advanced design rules (clearances, trace widths, length matching, differential pair routing rules) within the ECAD workplace.

DFM / DFA / DFT Compliance:



Standardizing designs to meet manufacturer capabilities. This includes checking for minimum trace/space, aspect ratios, annular ring sizes, component spacing for pick-and-place machines, and placing test points for ICT (In-Circuit Testing).

Footprint Library Management: Creating, validating, and maintaining standard-compliant (IPC-7351) schematic symbols and PCB footprints, ensuring correct pad sizes, pin pitches, and 3D models.

Fabrication Output Generation: Generating and verifying comprehensive manufacturing packages, including Gerber files (or ODB++), Excellon drill files, Bill of Materials (BOM), Pick-and-Place data, and assembly drawings.

Tools: Proficiency in at least one major ECAD suite (Altium Designer, KiCad, Cadence Allegro, or Mentor Expedition).

Standards: Good working knowledge of IPC standards (IPC-2221 for generic design, IPC-7351 for footprints, etc.).

Fabrication Knowledge: Understanding of PCB manufacturing processes (HASL vs ENIG finishes, via plugging/tenting, blind/buried vias).
