Job Summary:
We are seeking an experiencedPCB Design Engineerwith advanced proficiency inAltium Designer and a strong background inhigh voltage and high current PCB design as well assignal integrity (SI)andpower integrity (PI). This role is critical to the development of robust high-performance electronic systems used in demanding mass production applications such as industrial automotive or power electronics.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and layout of multi-layer PCBs usingAltium Designer optimized for high voltage and high current (up to insert current) and Power Converter applications.
- Ensure compliance withcreepage and clearancestandards including pollution standards insulation coordination and thermal management best practices.
- Performsignal integrityandpower integrityanalysis to ensure reliable operation under dynamic load conditions.
- Collaborate with electrical and mechanical engineers to optimize component placement routing and enclosure integration.
- Generate complete manufacturing documentation including Gerber/ODB files BOMs and assembly drawings.
- Setup DRC/ERC checks and validate designs against IPC and safety standards (e.g. IPC-2221 UL IEC).
- Support prototype builds bring-up and debugging of high-power circuits.
- Create and maintain a central Altium Library for use by other engineers
- Create rules and templates for when adding new library components
Required Qualifications:
- Bachelors degree in electrical engineering Electronics Engineering or a related field.
- 7 years of experience in PCB design with 3 years usingAltium Designer.
- Proven experience designinghigh voltage high current PCBs for Power Conversion including thermal and mechanical considerations up to 8 layers or more.
- Experience withpower electronics motor drives or industrial control systems.
- Experience in medium or high-speed digital design
