Position Summary

We are seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer (EE III or above) with 5+ years of hands-on hardware experience to lead initial board bring-up activities for new carrier card integrations. This role is highly technical and execution-focused, requiring deep expertise in power integrity, systematic hardware debug, and component-level troubleshooting to ensure boards are fully validated and ready for firmware integration.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead initial board bring-up for new carrier card and hardware integrations
• Verify proper power sequencing, voltage rail integrity, and signal paths
• Perform detailed hardware debug using systematic, measurement-driven methodologies
• Analyze and troubleshoot power integrity, signal integrity, clocking, and thermal issues
• Interpret schematics, PCB layouts, and design documentation to validate hardware behavior
• Use laboratory test equipment effectively, including:
• Oscilloscopes
• Multimeters
• Power supplies
• Logic analyzers
• Apply best-practice measurement techniques to avoid noise injection, loading effects, or inaccurate readings
• Evaluate component substitutions and design trade-offs during debug and validation
• Collaborate closely with firmware developers, test engineers, and cross-functional teams
• Document bring-up procedures, findings, root causes, and corrective actions clearly and thoroughly
• Ensure hardware is properly characterized and stable prior to firmware integration

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of hands-on electrical engineering experience
• Strong expertise in:
• Power integrity and power supply design
• Hardware debug and root-cause analysis
• Signal integrity and clock distribution
• Component-level troubleshooting
• Proficiency reading and interpreting:
• Schematics
• PCB layouts
• Design documentation
• Experience leading or owning board bring-up activities
• Strong technical documentation and communication skills

Education

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (required)

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience as the original board designer, with the ability to leverage design intent during bring-up
• Advanced knowledge of thermal management considerations
• Experience working closely with firmware and validation teams in early hardware phases

Additional Information

This is a hands-on engineering role focused on technical execution and problem-solving. Candidates must be comfortable working at the bench and owning hardware validation through resolution.
