Position Summary
This position is responsible for completing electrical engineering tasks critical to new product development and maintenance of our existing products. The individual will be a key participant in the Product Realization Process and contribute in a dynamic team environment. The individual is expected to perform functions independently with technical guidance from senior team members.

Principal Responsibilities
1. Lead development of advanced designs for power supplies, analog circuitry and high speed digital circuits
2. Complete FPGA/Programmable logic design including writing VHDL code and test benches, simulating, and synthesizing FPGA designs with timing constraints.
3. Develop hardware prototypes and analytical simulations for design concept validation.
4. Support System Architects and Product Managers in the development of building blocks and product roadmaps through technical input and feasibility analysis.
5. Provide guidance and assistance to hardware test group during approbation and validation testing.
6. Support task manager in development of project scoping and work list creation.
7. Lead DFSS initiatives to improve product performance and reliability through design reviews, FMEA’s, DFA’s and developing hardware test plans.
8. Support PQIM through evaluation of supplier capability studies of new processes.
9. Provide engineering support to resolve customer complaints and production product issues.
10. Support BOM creation and release of product documentation.
11. Coordinate tasks and provide guidance for technologists.
Education
Required: Bachelor of Science Degree in a technical discipline (BSEE, etc)
Preferred: Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent
Experience
Minimum: 5-10 Years of experience in the field of electrical engineering is required.

Special Skills
Experience with VHDL for FPGA programming is required. Experience developing circuit block diagrams, schematics and high-speed (100s of MHz) PCB layouts optimized for EMC performance is required. Familiarity with stepper or brushless DC motor control algorithms and slip ring technology is desired. Familiarity with UL & CE safety agency approvals is desired. Experience with analog and digital video is desired. Must be able to communicate effectively with other business disciplines. Strong communication, interpersonal and PC skills are required. Position requires a self-motivated individual able to work in a team environment.
