About Us
ATHEER Connectivity is a wireless technology company offering innovative solutions that bridge the digital divide and transform last-mile connectivity for telecoms and enterprises. Our products are engineered to deliver ultra high-speed wireless links eliminating the need for costly ground infrastructure.
As we continue to scale our hardware product line we re looking for a highly skilled Hardware Engineer with expertise in high-speed PCB design PoE (Power over Ethernet) circuitry and wireline signal integrity. This role is pivotal to ensuring the performance and reliability of our 60 GHz mmWave platforms and networking equipment.
Key Responsibilities
PCB Design & Development
Lead schematic capture and layout of complex multilayer PCBs for high-speed wireline interfaces (10G/25G/40G).
Design and simulate differential pairs impedance-controlled traces and high-frequency signal paths.
Develop PoE and power delivery circuitry compliant with 802.3af/at/bt standards.
Signal Integrity & Validation
Perform SI/PI simulations and coordinate board-level validation using oscilloscopes VNAs and test fixtures.
Ensure compliance with EMI/EMC standards and contribute to product certifications.
Collaborate with manufacturing partners on PCB stackups fabrication specs and assembly guidelines.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work closely with RF mechanical and software engineers to ensure seamless hardware-software integration.
Assist in hardware bring-up system integration and field debugging.
Documentation & Reliability
Generate BOMs test procedures layout guidelines and hardware release documentation.
Contribute to design-for-manufacturability (DFM) and design-for-test (DFT) practices.
Bachelor s or Master s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
3 years of experience in high-speed PCB design and hardware development.
Expertise in signal integrity PoE design and Ethernet PHY interfaces (SFP QSFP etc.).
Proficiency with ECAD tools (Altium Designer KiCAD or Cadence Allegro).
Experience with lab equipment (oscilloscopes logic analyzers spectrum analyzers).
Familiarity with embedded systems and digital hardware design.
Experience with mmWave systems or RF is a plus but not required.
Competitive Salary & Growth Opportunities
Attractive compensation aligned with experience.
Fast-track career growth in a fast-paced hardware-centric startup.
