The Electronics Hardware team within the Technology and Breakthrough Innovation group is seeking a Senior Engineer with in-depth technical expertise in analog circuit design, including high precision analog/other circuits used in signal conditioning and processing.
The responsibilities of this position include, but are not limited to, the following:
Design high precision analog circuits used for signal conditioning and processing, including filters, amplifiers, ADC, DAC, power supply and other circuits as required
Design, model, simulate, test and troubleshoot analog, digital, mixed-signal, and power supply circuits
Prepare design specifications based on product requirements (sometimes rudimentary), DFMEA, test plans, test reports and all necessary documentation to capture the design choices and tradeoffs effectively and clearly
Perform research on customer needs and ‘connect-the-dots’ with technology to recommend new product ideas
Prepare new and innovative concepts and ‘pitch’ the ideas to all interested stakeholders
Work with multi-disciplinary teams to identify and incubate new product concepts
To select this job as one of interest to you, at a minimum, you must have the following:
BS degree in Electrical Engineering required. MS degree in Electrical Engineering preferred.
10+ years’ experience with and analog, digital, and power circuits. Some experience with embedded systems is preferred.
Experienced in sensor technologies and low level analog instrumentation in a noisy electrical environment
Experience in applying precision analog signal chain components (amplifiers, ADCs, other) on mixed-signal boards: power and ground distribution, analog and digital signal routing, input protection
Experience in precision analog signal chain analysis: error budget, dynamic range, analog and digital filters, component tolerances
Working knowledge of component reliability (FIT, MTBF, derating) is preferred
Knowledge of risk assessment and mitigation, and DFM/DFT techniques
Knowledge of other electrical engineering disciplines such as transmission lines and RF circuits is preferred
Knowledge or experience in designing digital and power circuits, high-speed circuit layout, energy storage and motion control, H-bridge circuitry, and various power circuit topologies such as buck, boost, buck-boost, flyback, SEPIC and variant topologies, is preferred
Experience with high voltage/high power electronics is desirable
Expertise in P-Spice and other modeling /simulation tools; should be able to mentor others
