Responsibilities
* Support, and in some cases lead, the definition of hardware architecture, allocating functions to physical elements, defining interconnects, and associated physical layer implementations between those elements.
* Support, and in some cases lead, the specification and selection for off-board mounted electrical components such as contactors, isolators, displays, etc.
* Work closely with assigned PCB design resources to oversee and direct PCB layout activity, followed by review and sign-off on completed PCB designs.
* Direct and supervise the assembly of first prototypes. Plan and implement board bring-up tests and participate in planning and implementation of the integration testing programme.
* Participate in development and continuous improvement of processes within the Quality Management System, defining the product lifecycle for electronics hardware development.
What you would receive
* An excellent opportunity in delivering world-class electrical and electronic designs through the full design lifecycle from initial concept into volume production.
* A competitive salary, company pension scheme, private medical insurance, death in service cover.
* 29 days annual leave + bank holidays, with a buy and sell holiday scheme.

Candidate profile
* Ideal candidate will be degree-qualified and have experience in design of high-speed processor boards with mixed-signal content, including high voltage and current measurement circuits, contactor drivers, small DC/DC converters and voltage regulator circuits.
* Working knowledge of EMC design principles and experience with achieving EMC certification for microprocessor board designs.
* Experience in lab-based testing, board bring-up tests, design proving, verification and certification testing.
* Experience conducting FMEA, fault tree analysis and reliability estimation of HW designs.
* Competent in structured problem-solving techniques and able to mentor less experienced team members.
* Preferably knowledge in development of high-power charging systems and/or traction systems in EV.
* Experience with Infineon Aurix TC3x7 processor family is a plus.
