Job Description
Are you an experienced hardware engineer with a passion for driving innovation in product development? We are seeking a Hardware Architect Engineer to lead and contribute to the creation of cutting-edge technology solutions. This role is essential for delivering highly competitive products in the industrial and electronics sectors, requiring expertise across a broad range of hardware design and development processes.
Key Responsibilities:
- Lead a team of 5-10+ engineers (hardware, firmware, mechanical, test) and work closely with suppliers and vendors to ensure seamless project execution.
- Oversee the entire hardware development lifecycle from concept through to production, including design, testing, and delivery.
- Expertise in mixed signal design (ADC, DAC, grounding concepts) and high-speed designs (memory interfaces, bus architectures, high-speed communication links).
- Proficiency in analog electronics requiring low power, high accuracy interfaces to field sensors and transducers.
- Work with industry standards for I/O (4-20mA, HART, DI/DO, Universal IOs) and industrial communication protocols (Ethernet/IP, EtherCAT, ModBus, CAN-FD, etc.).
- Design analog circuits with various sensing technologies, including voltage, current, and pressure.
- Optimize Bill of Materials (BOM) for cost-effective solutions without compromising quality.
- Design, simulate, and verify analog circuits such as operational amplifiers, data converters (ADC/DAC), voltage regulators, and filters.
- Ensure designs meet global compliance and safety standards, including EMI/EMC, IEC61000, UL, and wireless certification requirements.
- Perform design reviews for schematics, PCBs, and functional testing, ensuring designs are ready for certification and production.
- Use industry-standard tools for schematics and PCB design (e.g., Cadence, Allegro) and conduct detailed analyses such as thermal, signal integrity, EMC modeling, and reliability assessments.
Qualifications
- 10+ years of experience in hardware development and product design.
- Proven track record in leading hardware development teams and delivering successful projects.
- Deep knowledge in analog and mixed-signal hardware design.
- Experience with processor-based design (32/64-bit, preferably NXP processors) and microcontroller-based design (preferably STM).
- Exposure to memory devices (DDR, NAND, NOR) and reverse engineering analysis.
- Familiar with safety and compliance standards across global markets.
- Strong hands-on experience with hardware development tools and simulation software (SPICE, MATHWORKS).
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across multidisciplinary teams.
We offer
- Competitive salary package
- Flexible working hours
- Opportunity to work from home
- Training and mentoring programs
- Ability to advance your technology skills
