Job Type: Full-time

As an Electronics Hardware Assistant Manager, you will lead a team of hardware engineers responsible for developing reliable, high-performance electronic systems for demanding applications. You will be involved throughout the product lifecycle, from understanding hardware requirements and defining system architecture to design, component selection, validation, certification, and production readiness.

The role requires close collaboration with software, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and customers to ensure successful product development and timely program execution. You will provide technical direction, participate in design reviews, resolve complex engineering challenges, and ensure hardware solutions meet performance, reliability, manufacturability, and regulatory requirements.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

- Lead and mentor the electronics hardware engineering team, providing technical guidance and supporting professional development.
- Own hardware design and development activities across architecture, circuit design, PCB development, validation, and product integration.
- Define high-speed digital architectures using microcontrollers, microprocessors, and FPGA-based systems.
- Design and review systems incorporating Xilinx, Altera, or Actel FPGAs, associated tools, IPs, and supporting interfaces.
- Work with components including DACs, ADCs, FPGAs, buffers, transceivers, LDOs, point-of-load regulators, 1553 devices, microprocessors, and microcontrollers.




- Develop and review mixed-signal hardware architectures and ensure appropriate signal integrity and system performance.
- Work with communication and interface protocols including USB, Gigabit Ethernet, PCIe, RS232, and MIL-STD-1553.
- Drive hardware architecture decisions while ensuring compliance with applicable industry standards and regulatory requirements.
- Review and validate component selection, tolerances, performance, reliability, availability, and manufacturability.
- Conduct design reviews, technical risk assessments, failure analysis, and design verification activities.
- Coordinate with manufacturing and suppliers to resolve component, production, and hardware-related issues.
- Support EMC, ESS, certification, qualification, and product testing activities.
- Manage hardware development schedules, resources, risks, and technical deliverables to support on-time program execution.
- Collaborate with software, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and systems teams for seamless product integration.
- Engage with customers and technical stakeholders on hardware requirements, design decisions, technical issues, and program progress.
- Stay current with emerging electronics technologies, components, design methodologies, and industry best practices.
