The engineer will work closely with Product Engineering, FPGA, Digital IC, Mechanical, Software, and Systems Engineering teams to design, develop, integrate, and validate camera electronics from concept through production.\nThe ideal candidate has extensive experience designing complex multilayer PCBs with high-speed digital interfaces, precision analog circuitry, image sensors, FPGAs, power electronics, and EMI/EMC best practices.\nKey Responsibilities:\nDesign multilayer PCBs for high-performance imaging systems and camera electronics.\nDevelop PCB layouts from schematics through manufacturing release.\nCollaborate with electrical engineers to optimize component placement and routing.\nDesign boards incorporating FPGAs, DDR3/DDR4/LPDDR memory, CMOS image sensors, ADCs/DACs, ARM processors, power supplies, and precision analog front ends.\nPerform high-speed signal integrity layout for interfaces including DDR, USB 3.x, PCI Express, Gigabit Ethernet, Camera Link, CoaXPress, MIPI CSI-2, and LVDS.\nDevelop camera hardware platforms, including schematic capture and PCB layout for sensor interfaces, power regulation, timing control, and data transmission.\nDevelop controlled-impedance stack-ups with PCB fabricators.\nEnsure compliance with EMI/EMC, thermal, manufacturability, and reliability requirements.\nBring up and debug new hardware using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and protocol analyzers.\nDocument designs and interface specifications and support hardware validation and production.\nRequired Qualifications:\nB.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.\n5+ years of camera PCB design experience.\nExpert knowledge of PCB CAD tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or OrCAD PCB Designer.\nExperience designing complex multilayer boards (8-20+ layers).\nStrong understanding of controlled-impedance routing, differential pairs, high-speed timing constraints, return-current paths, and crosstalk reduction.\nDesired Qualifications:\nExperience interfacing with visible and IR image sensors.\nUnderstanding of power regulation, analog/digital separation, and signal integrity.\nExperience with multilayer PCB layout, high-speed digital and mixed-signal design, controlled-impedance routing, differential-pair matching, power integrity, signal integrity, EMI/EMC mitigation, and thermal analysis.\nSuccess Metrics:\nDeliver PCB layouts on schedule with minimal design revisions.\nAchieve first-pass fabrication success and reduce board re-spins through robust design practices and reviews.\nMeet signal integrity, EMI/EMC, thermal, and reliability targets.\nSuccessfully support prototype bring-up and transition to production.\nDevelop and maintain standardized PCB libraries and layout guidelines.\nImprove design efficiency through reusable practices and documentation.\nEnsure designs support manufacturability (DFM), assembly (DFA), and testability (DFT).","description_format":"text","description_chars":3156,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":5,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"bachelor","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":[],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Electrical
