We are seeking a skilled PCB Designer with strong proficiency in Altium Designer (KiCad knowledge is a plus) to join our hardware engineering team. The role involves designing complex multi-layer PCBs, performing reverse engineering, and preparing com-plete documentation for manufacturing and assembly.
Key Responsibilities
• Design and develop multi-layer PCBs (up to 6 layers) with optimized stack-up and routing strategies.
• Perform component placement and PCB routing ensuring signal integrity, EMI/EMC compliance, and manufacturability.
• Create and validate footprints & symbols for new components.
• Conduct ERC (Electrical Rule Check) and DRC (Design Rule Check) to ensure compliance with design standards.
• Generate and review Gerber files, ODB++ files, drill files, pick & place files, BOMs, and assembly drawings for fabrication and assembly.
• Work with QFN packages, D-Sub connectors, and other complex footprints.
• Collaborate with hardware engineers to optimize designs for performance, cost, and reliability.
• Perform reverse engineering of existing PCBs for redesign, improvement,
or repli-cation.
• Support prototyping, testing, and debugging of PCB assemblies.
• Maintain accurate documentation and manage design libraries.
Required Skills
• Proficiency in Altium Designer (KiCad knowledge is a plus).
• Strong knowledge of PCB stack-up design and high-speed routing techniques.
• Experience with signal integrity, EMI/EMC considerations, and thermal manage-ment.
• Familiarity with manufacturing processes and ability to generate complete produc-tion files.
• Hands-on experience with reverse engineering PCBs.
• Attention to detail and ability to work in a fast-paced, cooperative environment.
Qualifications
• Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering or related field.
• 2+ years of experience in PCB design and layout.
• Experience with complex connectors, fine-pitch packages, and high-density boards.
• Knowledge of industry standards (IPC, ISO).
