We are seeking a highly skilled Embedded Electronic Engineer to contribute to the design and development of mixed-signal embedded systems. This role will span the full development lifecycle, from circuit and PCB design to firmware implementation and validation. You will play a key part in delivering robust, production-ready hardware platforms integrated with custom embedded software.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Hardware Design
* Design mixed-signal embedded hardware, including power regulation, sensor interfacing, and signal conditioning
* Capture schematics and execute multi-layer PCB layout with impedance-controlled routing
* Validate designs against EMC, thermal, and mechanical requirements
Firmware Development
* Develop embedded C/C++ firmware for STM32 microcontrollers
* Implement low-level peripheral drivers, RTOS tasks, and communication protocols
* Integrate and debug embedded network stacks
Testing and Validation
* Design and build manual and automated test rigs for validation and production support
* Interface test systems with measurement/control equipment for continuous feedback
* Conduct real-time debugging and issue tracking during system bring-up
Manufacturing Support
* Collaborate with CEMs during prototype and scale up
* Provide design for manufacture feedback, manage BOMs, and review assembly/test documentation
* Lead pre-compliance testing for safety and EMI certifications (CE, UKCA)
* Enforce strong version control using Git across hardware and firmware repositories
* Produce clear design reviews, test plans, and validation reports
CORE COMPETENCIES
* Proficient in mixed-signal hardware design, including analog and digital circuitry
* Skilled in high-speed digital design, with practical experience in impedance-controlled routing and signal integrity for USB and Ethernet interfaces.
* Experienced with a wide range of analog sensor interfaces, particularly in optical sensing applications, including photodiodes, phototransistors, and signal conditioning for low-light detection.
* Skilled in Altium Designer for schematic capture and multi-layer layout
* Comfortable building and maintaining test rigs for embedded systems validation
* Experienced in embedded C/C++ development for STM32 MCUs using HAL and LL
* Strong understanding of embedded communication protocols and network stacks
* Experienced in working with Contract Electronics Manufacturers (CEMs)
* Familiar with certification processes, including EMI and safety standards
* Proficient in version control using Git in multi-disciplinary teams
* Familiar with RTOS-based development, timing-sensitive systems, and low-level debugging
* Demonstrates self-motivation, organization, and ownership of tasks in agile workflows
BONUS COMPETENCIES
* Experience working with pre-compliance EMC testing tools and techniques
* Familiarity with the NVIDIA Jetson Nano platform, including peripheral interfacing, GPIO, and deploying embedded Linux-based applications.
* Familiarity with thermal management in enclosure-integrated electronics
* Knowledge of mechanical constraints, stack-ups, and packaging for embedded systems
* Experience with sensor calibration, filtering, and analog signal integrity conside
