Position Description:

This position is for a highly motivated individual to work as part of a research and development team to design PCB hardware for Power converter ( AC drive / UPS / Charger ) , High Speed Digital board , Mixed signal Board . The candidate should have good written and verbal communication skills and be able to work in a team effectively. This position requires support for new products as well as legacy products.

Job Duties:

- Design and document complex printed circuit boards conforming to IPC and industry standards from schematics, parts lists, and functional requirements supplied by electrical and mechanical design team.

- Interpret requirements for product electrical functionality, manufacturability, and regulatory agency compliance into PCB design implementations.

- Generate all documentation required for release and production of PCB designs and provide subsequent Manufacturing support and revision through ECO process.

- Provide expertise to optimize PCB designs and to resolve PCB design technical issues at PCB fabricators and contract manufacturers.

- Maintain CAD library, including symbol, footprint generation, and database administration.

- Establish PCB design standards, procedures, and guidelines, and assist with file maintenance and configuration control.

- Participate in structured product development programs in a collaborative team environment, working within constraints of program schedules and cost.
