Job Description

Senior Electrical Engineer

Metrology Systems

Location: Fremont, CA

ONSITE: Flexible schedule

Position Summary

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Electrical Engineer to develop metrology systems for semiconductor processing equipment. The work spans low-noise and mixed-signal electronics, industrial controls, power, motion and thermal control, optical instrumentation, safety circuits, and sensors. The ideal candidate has strong electrical engineering fundamentals, depth in one or more relevant domains, and the ability to independently solve problems across disciplines.

Responsibilities

  • Design low-noise analog, mixed-signal, and digital control electronics in compliance with applicable standards.
  • Develop custom PCBs from concept through schematic design, component selection, bring-up, validation, and release.
  • Integrate power supplies, motion and temperature controls, optical metrology instruments, safety circuits, and industrial sensors.
  • Define electrical architecture and produce schematics, wiring and cable drawings, panel drawings, bills of materials, and test documentation.
  • Build, test, and troubleshoot prototypes, fixtures, and production-intent systems.
  • Diagnose issues across electrical hardware, firmware, software, optics, motion, thermal control, and system interfaces.
  • Develop or modify firmware, HDL, scripts, drivers, and APIs for device control and testing.
  • Select components and suppliers based on performance, reliability, availability, manufacturability, and cost.
  • Own assigned systems from prototype through release, manufacturing support, and failure analysis.
  • Communicate technical risks, tradeoffs, and progress through design reviews and project execution.
  • Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering, manufacturing, applications, service, and supplier teams.
  • Provide technical guidance to junior engineers, technicians, and manufacturing personnel.

Required Qualifications

  • BSEE or a related field with 7 or more years of relevant experience; MSEE with 5 or more years; or equivalent education and experience.
  • Experience developing electrical hardware from prototype through integration, validation, and release.
  • Expertise in at least one relevant area, such as low-noise analog, mixed-signal electronics, embedded controls, precision instrumentation, industrial controls, motion, thermal control, or power systems.
  • Experience with board-level circuit design, PCB bring-up, laboratory testing, and hardware debugging.
  • Ability to troubleshoot complex electrical and electromechanical systems.
  • Ability to produce clear electrical drawings, design documentation, and test reports.
  • Ability to work independently and make sound technical decisions with limited direction.
  • Strong written, verbal, and cross-functional communication skills.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with SEMI standards, semiconductor equipment, metrology, precision automation, scientific instrumentation, or sensitive sensors.
  • Experience with grounding, shielding, filtering, isolation, signal integrity, and EMI mitigation.
  • Experience integrating optical instruments, motion systems, temperature controls, industrial sensors, or safety circuits.
  • Familiarity with embedded firmware, FPGAs, microcontrollers, programmable logic, and industrial communication protocols.
  • Experience with electrical panels, equipment wiring, regulatory compliance, design for manufacturing, and design for test.
  • Experience working with PCB, cable, panel, or equipment suppliers.

Attributes for Success

  • Prioritizes safety, quality, and compliance throughout the design lifecycle.
  • Broad technical curiosity and willingness to work outside a single specialty.
  • Strong engineering judgment and practical problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to bring structure to ambiguous or evolving requirements.
  • Comfort working at both circuit and system levels.
  • Collaborative approach with strong ownership and follow-through.

Physical Demands and Work Conditions

Work is performed in office, laboratory, manufacturing, and equipment-development environments.

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.
