- Architect and design analog and digital circuits: signal conditioning, gate drive, current sensing, protection, and power supply sections
- Perform detailed hardware analysis: derating, SI/PI, thermal, lightning, and stability/sensitivity (per aerospace standards like DO-254/DO-160)
- Integrate and validate sensor feedback loops (Hall, resolver / encoder, LVDT) for closed-loop control
- Prepare detailed schematics, BOM, and test plans; coordinate with PCB and manufacturing teams for board realization
- Drive EMI/EMC compliance, environmental testing, and documentation for aerospace qualification




- Collaborate with systems, avionics, and actuation teams to define and verify interface requirements
- Own board bring-up, functional testing, HIL validation, and support system integration Minimum Requirements
- Strong background in servo drive design and control electronics for DC servo motors
- Proficient in analog, digital, and mixed-signal design, embedded control, and gate drive circuits
- Experience in power electronics, MOSFET/IGBT/IGP selection, and motor speed/current control
- Tools: LTspice, MATLAB/Simulink, Altium/KiCAD, Zuken, Signal Integrity tools, Ansys/Cadence (for analysis)
- Knowledge of DO-254, DO-160, and aerospace hardware V&V; practices
- Exposure to CAN, RS-422, SPI, UART, RS485, Ethernet /TSN and deterministic communication for actuation
- Strong grasp of EMI/EMC, power supply design (SMPS, flyback), and certification testing
- Well versed in embedded hardware development for aerospace or safety-critical systems
- Hands-on with hardware testing tools: oscilloscope, logic analyzer, current probes, etc.

Desired Skills And Qualifications

- Master’s or Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering.
- 4–5 years of experience in servo drive electronics design for DC servo motor-based actuation systems.
- Proficiency analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit design, including:
- Signal conditioning
