Position Summary

• The Senior Electronics Component Engineer / Altium Library Manager is a blended role combining electronic component engineering ownership with hands-on Altium component library management.
• The position is responsible for electronic component data quality, prototype BOM readiness, electronic component risk review, and the accuracy, completeness, and standards compliance of Altium component library content.
• This role partners with engineering, PCB layout, procurement, suppliers, and contract manufacturers to improve electronic component selection, lifecycle awareness, compliance, Altium component library governance, and prototype build execution.

Key Responsibilities
Component Engineering:

• Lead BOM reviews for cost, availability, lifecycle risk, manufacturability, compliance, and electronic component alternates.
• Maintain access to the contract manufacturer's offsite component database and approved part documentation.
• Create new part numbers or submit applicable alternates using the contract manufacturer's systems and processes.
• Identify electronic component supply chain risks and recommend early mitigation options.
• Verify RoHS and REACH compliance for selected electronic components.

Altium Library Management:

• Oversee Altium component library content for new and existing electronic components, including schematic symbols, PCB footprints, and 3D models.
• Coordinate maintenance of electronic component parameters and Altium component library data quality to support accurate BOM generation, board layout, and mechanical design workflows.
• Define, document, implement, and maintain version-controlled Altium component library standards and imports.

Prototype Build and Sourcing Support:

• Coordinate prototype build handoffs with procurement, engineering, approved partners, and internal service teams.
• Clarify board fabrication, purchasing, and kitting workflows for prototype builds.
• Track prototype build support needs and escalate gaps in sourcing, kitting, or assembly readiness.

Required Qualifications:  

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related technical field; equivalent hands-on experience considered.
• Hands-on experience with Altium Designer and Altium component library management, including symbols, footprints, parameters, managed components, database libraries, or comparable enterprise ECAD library systems.
• Strong electronic component engineering knowledge, including component selection, lifecycle status, alternates, part numbering, PCB assembly considerations, and selection tradeoffs.
• Experience reviewing BOMs for cost, availability, lifecycle risk, sourcing alternatives, compliance, and prototype build readiness.
• Ability to communicate electronic component risks and recommendations clearly to engineering, procurement, and manufacturing stakeholders.
• Working knowledge of RoHS and REACH requirements for electronic components.
• Ability to work cross-functionally with engineering, PCB layout, procurement, manufacturing, and external sourcing partners.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting prototype builds in regulated, high-reliability, medical, aerospace, defense, or industrial electronics environments.  
• Experience qualifying alternate electronic components to improve cost, availability, lifecycle position, or manufacturability.
• Experience coordinating with contract manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, brokers, or internal service teams to support component sourcing and prototype build execution.
• Familiarity with part approval workflows, engineering change processes, and controlled library release practices.
• Familiarity with prototype purchasing, distributor and broker sourcing, lead-time constraints, and practical supply chain risk mitigation.
• Experience preparing or validating component kits, BOM packages, and build documentation for external manufacturing or PCB assembly partners.
• Ability to interpret schematics, PCB layout documentation, datasheets, assembly BOMs, and component manufacturer documentation.
