We are looking for a skilled and motivated Hardware Design Engineer to join our engineering team. The ideal candidate will have experience in designing analog, digital, mixed-signal, and high-speed electronic hardware for embedded systems. The role involves hardware architecture, schematic design, power supply design, PCB development, SI/PI analysis, board bring-up, and product validation.

Key Responsibilities

- Design and develop electronic hardware from concept to production.
- Develop hardware architecture based on system requirements.
- Create schematics, perform component selection, and support PCB layout activities.
- Design STM32 or similar microcontroller-based embedded hardware platforms.
- Design FPGA-based hardware platforms (AMD/Xilinx, Intel/Altera, Lattice, or equivalent).
- Design power supply circuits, including DC-DC converters, LDOs, PMICs, and power sequencing.
- Design and review high-speed interfaces such as DDR, PCIe, USB, Ethernet, LVDS, and other serial communication interfaces.
- Analyze and optimize PCB layouts for Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI).
- Perform board bring-up, debugging, hardware validation, and root cause analysis.
- Conduct circuit simulations and hardware verification using industry-standard tools.
- Collaborate with firmware, PCB layout, mechanical, manufacturing, and system engineering teams.
- Prepare technical documentation including schematics, BOMs, design reports, test plans, and validation reports.

Required Qualifications

- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Electrical, Electronics & Communication Engineering, or a related field.
- 2-10 years of experience in hardware design and development.

Essential Skills

- Strong knowledge of analog,



digital, mixed-signal, and power electronics design.
