  • Technical Support & Design Guidance: Provide hardware design support and technical guidance throughout the product lifecycle. Assist with schematic and PCB layout reviews, component selection, and reference board bring-up. Help create and maintain customer-facing technical documentation guiding board design, including design guides, application notes, and layout recommendations.
  • Hands-on Lab Testing & Troubleshooting: Perform hands-on board bring-up, debugging, and functional testing in the lab. Utilize standard lab test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies) to diagnose and resolve hardware issues. Assist with basic board rework and electrical characterization.

Qualifications & Requirements

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (BSEE), Computer Engineering (BSCE), or related engineering field.
  • Experience: 2–6 years of experience in hardware engineering, applications support, board design, or hardware validation.
  • Core Requirements: Solid understanding of general electrical engineering and PCB design fundamentals. Hands-on experience working in a hardware lab with standard test and measurement equipment (oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies). Basic understanding of power management, thermal principles, and board-level interconnects. Ability to create clear, customer-facing technical documentation and design guidance. Strong communication and collaborative problem-solving skills.

Preferred / Nice-to-Have Qualifications

  • Master’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering.
  • Familiarity with high-speed serial interfaces (such as SerDes) and signal integrity fundamentals.
  • Experience evaluating DC-DC power converters or power delivery networks (PDN).
  • Familiarity with AI-coding tools (Claude/Codex)
  • Experience with high-speed PCB stack-up and impedance control design rules.

Compensation and Benefits

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
