Job Overview We are seeking an Electrical Hardware Engineer to join our hardware team and work closely with the Lead Hardware Engineer, Digital & Embedded Systems to develop, bring up, debug, and validate electronic systems that control our optical switching platform.
This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys hands‑on hardware development and lab work: someone who can move between schematic design, PCB layout, board bring‑up, debugging, and system testing.
You will play a key role in bringing new hardware designs to life, helping integrate electronic systems with MEMS and photonics technology.
Key Responsibilities Hardware Bring‑Up & Debugging
Perform initial bring‑up of new circuit boards and hardware prototypes
Debug and troubleshoot electrical issues using lab equipment
Diagnose problems related to power systems, digital interfaces, and mixed‑signal circuits
Work closely with firmware and FPGA engineers to validate hardware functionality
Hardware Testing & Validation
Develop and execute test plans for prototype hardware
Build test setups and validation environments for electronic systems
Characterize hardware performance and identify root causes of failures
Support system‑level testing and integration
Hardware Design Support
Assist with schematic capture and PCB design using Altium Designer
Contribute to the design and implementation of mixed‑signal electronic systems
Work with the hardware lead to implement subsystem designs and revisions
Support component selection and board revisions as designs evolve
Assist in defining electrical hardware standards, processes and libraries for nEye designs
System Integration
Integrate control electronics with optical switching hardware
Collaborate with photonics, firmware, and FPGA teams
Participate in design reviews and hardware validation activities
Required Qualifications & Skills
BS or MS in Electrical Engineering
5–10 years of experience designing and debugging electronic hardware
Strong PCB design experience using Altium Designer
Hands‑on experience with board bring‑up, debugging, and hardware validation
Strong lab skills using equipment such as: oscilloscopes, multimeters, electronic loads, logic analyzers
Strong soldering skills, including ability to work with small components (down to 0402 size)
Experience with digital and mixed‑signal circuit design
Strong troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis skills
Preferred Experience
Experience working with FPGA‑based systems (including knowledge of Verilog/VHDL)
Embedded firmware experience (C/C++)
Familiarity with high‑speed interfaces (PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, LVDS, etc.)
Experience building prototype hardware systems
Experience working in early‑stage hardware development environments
$150,000 - $200,000 a year
Starting salary and title will depend on, and be commensurate with, relevant experience, skills, training, education, market demands, and the ultimate job duties and requirements.
