Overview:
Under minimal supervision, the Electrical Engineer will perform combined analog and digital circuit design to develop multi-layer PCBAs for control of proprietary energy systems. The responsibilities include designing analog and digital electronics for interfacing microcontrollers to peripheral devices such as pumps, fans, relays, thermocouples, pressure transducers, power converters etc.
In addition, the ideal candidate will coordinate with project leaders and colleagues to determine the need for and design / implement electrical components and subsystems systems that satisfy the industry’s safety and performance standards. Along wing design, this position includes significant hands on support and trouble shooting of wiring systems and sensors. Prototyping / breadboarding skills with discrete components and microprocessors are considered a plus. This position will involve working with high energy electrical devices such as batteries or utility connections.
Responsibilities:
• Design analog and digital electronics for interfacing microcontrollers to peripheral
devices such as pumps, fans, relays, thermocouples, pressure transducers, power
converters etc
• Prepare prototypes and component assemblies and systems that meet established
specifications
• Design and build component test fixtures and test plans
• Conduct and report on experiments and tests
• Assist in developing and implementing test stands for prototype systems and
component testing
• Provide first line of engineering support for manufacturing assembly and field
service
• Troubleshoot and repair circuit boards to the component level
• Support and interface with agency testing
• Design and layout simple PCBA’s
Required Qualifications:
• Electrical Engineer with 5+ years of combined analog and digital circuit design to
develop multi-layer PCBAs for control of power systems
• Possess the ability to design test fixtures and develop test procedures for board
qualification
• Hands on experience using oscilloscopes, multimeters, current clamps and
other test equipment as well as familiarity with fine pitch rework is required
• Must be comfortable working around high voltage/high current systems
• Experience designing high volume low cost printed circuit boards is a plus
• Experience in product development
• Ability to trouble-shoot analog and digital electronics
• Experience with light programming in C or assembly
• Knowledge of proper electrical manufacturing techniques (soldering, wire layout,
terminations, etc)
• Familiarity with various communication protocols such as CAN, RS-232, SPI and I2C
is desirable.
• High level of competence in working with PC’s in an engineering environment
• Upon hire, must meet requirement of a negative alcohol/drug screen
Desired Qualifications:
• Experience with EMC concepts and measurement techniques
• Power Supply Design
• ESD Handling Methods
• New Product Introduction
