Electrical Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE Join a cross-functional engineering team developing a terahertz imaging system for security applications. In this hands-on role, you will own mixed-signal board bring-up, debugging, and integration, while helping mature the hardware for increased production. WHAT YOU'LL DO - Lead board-level bring-up, power sequencing validation, and subsystem integration across multiple board designs. - Investigate signal integrity, power, and RF performance issues, identify root causes, and drive design iterations. - Coordinate with an external design firm on schematic updates and layout reviews, then manage fabrication, characterization, and validation of revisions. - Work with FPGA, firmware, and systems engineers to validate subsystem and system-level integration. - Develop traceability and test procedures to support increased production volume. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - Bachelor's or master's degree in Electrical Engineering and 3 to 7 years of relevant experience. - Experience designing mixed-signal hardware, including ADCs, DACs, DC/DC converters, and RF interfaces. - End-to-end board design experience using Altium, including schematic capture, layout, controlled-impedance routing, and power protection circuits. - Hands-on experience bringing up and debugging complex PCB assemblies, including power sequencing, signal integrity, and mixed-signal validation. - Familiarity with FPGA bring-up, Petalinux, AMD Kria SOM, Python, high-speed digital systems, and lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and logic analyzers. - Background in telecom, radar, or complex sensing systems is helpful. Ability to work across disciplines and independently solve problems is important. COMPENSATION & BENEFITS Base salary: $160,000 to $180,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available. Candidates must be authorized to work in the United States without sponsorship. LOCATION On-site in Santa Clara, California.
