We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Senior PCB Design Engineer to join our hardware development team. In this role, you will be responsible for the end-to-end design, layout, and optimization of complex printed circuit boards for advanced electronics. The ideal candidate brings a strong background in high-speed, multi-layer designs within sectors like telecom or data storage, coupled with a forward-thinking approach to integrating AI tools into engineering workflows. You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and manage relationships with global manufacturing partners to bring cutting-edge hardware from concept to production.
Key Responsibilities
• Take ownership of the full PCB layout cycle, from component placement and routing to generating final manufacturing files (Gerber, ODB++, etc.)
• Design high-speed, multi-layer boards (6+ layers) ensuring optimal performance, minimal noise, and strict adherence to layout best practices
• Interact directly with domestic and international fabrication and assembly vendors to ensure seamless manufacturing and resolve technical queries
• Plan, estimate, and manage project timelines to ensure hardware deliverables meet tight production schedules
• Leverage advanced AI tools and agents (e.g., Gemini, Claude) to streamline research, optimize design workflows, and troubleshoot engineering challenges
• Bridge the gap between schematic design and physical layout by applying a solid understanding of control, power, and signal dynamics Requirements Essential
Requirements:
• 4 to 5 years of hands-on experience designing PCBs in an electronics company, specifically within sectors such as telecommunications, data storage, or similar high-tech industries
• Proven expertise in designing multi-layer, high-speed boards featuring 6 or more layers, with a strict adherence to layout best practices
• High proficiency in industry-standard PCB design and EDA tools, including Cadence OrCAD, Cadence Allegro, Siemens Xpedition, and/or KiCAD
• Strong foundational understanding of the PCB manufacturing process (DFM/DFA) to ensure designs are optimized for reliable fabrication
• Solid grasp of diverse electrical circuit aspects, including Control, Power, Signal routing, and Noise mitigation
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, with a demonstrated ability to effectively manage and collaborate with both domestic and international vendors
• Strong capability in project planning, scope assessment, and accurately estimating development timelines
• Practical knowledge of modern AI tools (including Claude, Gemini, AI prompting, and AI Agents) and
how to apply
them to improve daily productivity and engineering outputs Desirable
Requirements:
• A foundational understanding of, and past exposure to, Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis
• Previous experience designing Radio Frequency (RF) PCBs
• Active or past IPC Certification (e.g., CID/CID+) is highly preferred
• Prior hands-on experience with the testing, debugging, and initial bring-up of newly fabricated PCBs Perks At Astrome we provide our employees with perks like Gratuity and Health Insurance.
