Expert-level proficiency in electronics design tools such as Altium.
Extensive lab experience for bring-up and verification of new hardware.
Excellent written and spoken communication skills.

Own end-to-end design of complex electronics modules and small systems, from concept and architecture through schematic, layout, test, and production.
This role focuses on digital and mixed-signal hardware development for space applications.
Lead small teams of hardware engineers to develop new products with multiple electronics modules.
Develop hardware architecture and write hardware requirements for systems of moderate complexity.
Perform detailed and complete schematic design for complex boards, ranging from key components to supporting passives.
Perform detailed PCB layout in Altium Designer for complex boards, often working with a PCB Designer.
Complete board-level and box-level analysis such as worst-case circuit analysis, signal integrity analysis, and power integrity analysis, and guide interpretation of results.
Develop bring-up plans and design verification plans for new hardware and systems.
Perform bring-up and key verification testing of modules and small integrated systems, often working with a technician to complete validation.
Release modules and assemblies to production, working with the Manufacturing and Test Engineering teams.
Mentor junior and senior engineers to build technical understanding and professional development.
Use working knowledge of adjacent fields, such as software and mechanical, to streamline development of electronics modules and systems.

8+ years of professional electronics design experience.
Experience leading small teams of hardware engineers to develop multi-module assemblies, including hardware architecture, requirements, make/buy decisions, and interconnects.
Expertise in high-speed digital electronics (e.g. 10+ Gbps SerDes), including signal integrity simulation and lab verification, SerDes optimization (e.g. emphasis and drive level), and high-speed interconnect solutions.
Expertise in software-defined radio (SDR) applications.
