Your Role

We are a leading company in the electronics industry, dedicated to innovation and excellence in power conversion technologies. Our mission is to provide high-quality solutions that meet the evolving needs of our customers while fostering a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement.

About the Role

The role involves creating PCB layouts for power converter assemblies in Altium Designer, ensuring adherence to Design for Manufacturability (DFM) guidelines and established CAD library standards.

The salary range for this role will be $80,000 to $90,000 per year. Candidates must be local and there is no sponsorship for this role.

Responsibilities

• Create PCB layouts for power converter assemblies in Altium Designer.

• Follow Design for Manufacturability (DFM) guidelines and established CAD library standards for component footprints and attributes.

• Perform comprehensive design verification using automated CAD validation and rule-checking tools.

• Utilize Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) systems to manage PCB designs through all development stages, including layout, review, fabrication, assembly, and stencil release.

• Collaborate effectively with Electrical Design Engineers to update layouts based on schematic revisions, engineer markups, product platform derivatives, and new product introductions.

• Partner with Mechanical Engineers to accurately incorporate board outlines, mechanical features, terminals, mounting requirements, and keep-out zones, while obtaining required documentation for PCB release.

• Work closely with Operations and NPI Engineers to implement manufacturability requirements, including spacing, solder mask design, assembly tolerances, and process-driven design margins.

• Schedule and lead PCB Layout Design Reviews, both in-person and virtual, with cross-functional stakeholders including Electrical, Mechanical, Firmware, Compliance, Manufacturing, and Operations teams prior to design release.

• Apply disciplined project and workload management practices to support multiple concurrent designs and ensure timely PCB releases.

• Collaborate with CAD Library Administrators to maintain library integrity, troubleshoot design database issues, and ensure adherence to component library standards.

• Generate PCB stencil manufacturing files using approved CAD tools and document releases through PLM systems.

Qualifications
