Senior Electrical Engineer

Responsibilities

As the lead electrical engineer on your projects, you'll work within multi-disciplinary teams to architect and develop electronic systems for customers across a wide variety of markets

You'll own the electrical scope from concept through delivery — making the architecture decisions, doing the design work yourself, and serving as the technical point of contact your customer talks to

You'll guide the other electrical engineers contributing to your projects, review their work, and mentor junior team members as they grow

You'll also support the sales team as we bid and quote incoming work, where your architecture concepts and estimates help us win the projects worth having

You'll spend most of your time designing electrical system architectures, block diagrams, power trees and budgets, electrical interface control documents, schematics, and PCB layouts

You'll get your hands dirty and own your designs from start to finish, involving other team members as appropriate to ensure that our designs are successful

That ownership runs through circuit design and capture, PCB layout, design reviews, prototype build, board bring-up and test, debug, integration, and verification, and it ends with the design documentation package

You'll lead technical design reviews on a regular basis, and you'll review other engineers' schematics and layouts with the same rigor you apply to your own

You'll also be your customer's technical point of contact — giving status and presenting designs

This will occasionally include travel to customer sites for kickoffs or deliveries
