* Assist in prototype bring-up, testing, and validation.
Essential Skills and Experience:
* Proven experience in PCB layout for power electronics, ideally in high-voltage and high-current designs.
* Proficiency in industry-standard ECAD tools (e.g., Altium Designer, Mentor Graphics, Cadence).
* Strong understanding of EMI/EMC considerations, signal integrity, and thermal design.
* Familiarity with PCB manufacturing processes and constraints.
* Ability to interpret electrical schematics and component datasheets.
