The ideal candidate will have strong experience in embedded systems, digital and discrete circuit design, and hands-on development of electronic systems from concept through production. This role involves collaboration across multiple departments, design documentation, testing, and participation in full product lifecycle development.

Key Responsibilities

• Design, develop, and evaluate embedded electronic systems utilizing microprocessors.
• Perform discrete analog and digital circuit design, including FET and BJT-based circuits.
• Conduct ESD analysis, testing, and system-level evaluation.
• Use common lab and diagnostic equipment such as oscilloscopes, DVMs, power supplies, and function generators.
• Develop and maintain design documentation including schematics, specifications, test plans, and design notes.
• Participate in system-level design, project cost estimates, scheduling, and project management activities.
• Work cross-functionally with Sales & Marketing, Senior Management, Manufacturing, Purchasing, Quality, and customer evaluation organizations (e.g., DOT).
• Support LED-based product development including luminance testing, LED evaluation, qualifying drivers, and optics design.
• Utilize PCB design tools (preferred: DipTrace) and prepare fabrication specifications including copper weight, trace width requirements, and material selection.
• Assist in interpreting and implementing customer specifications for final product deliverables.
• Employ simulation tools and mechanical drawing software to support design accuracy and communication.
• Use Python and AI-assisted tools (including large language models) to support development, documentation, automation, and analysis tasks.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (BSEE).
• 3–5 years of professional engineering experience.
• Embedded systems experience with microprocessor-based designs.
• Proficiency with digital and discrete component design (FETs, BJTs).
• Familiarity with C programming for embedded environments.
• Strong working knowledge of standard test equipment (oscilloscopes, DVMs, etc.).
• Experience with ESD testing and mitigation.
• Project management capability, including schedule and task management.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience creating and maintaining engineering design documentation.
• Ability to develop specification sheets, cost analyses, and project schedules.
• Background working with cross-functional teams throughout an organization.
• Experience with PCB layout tools (DipTrace preferred) and PCB fabrication processes.
• LED system design experience, including luminance measurement, driver qualification, and optical system considerations.
• Familiarity with design simulation software.
• Experience with mechanical drawing software.
• Working knowledge of Python programming.
• Experience utilizing AI tools or large language models in engineering workflows.
