Job Description
Electrical Engineer 3.3 3.3 out of 5 stars 4201 Roosevelt Way NE, Seattle, WA 98105 Hybrid work Full-time Deako 7 reviews Full-time About Deako Deako is redefining the way people experience lighting in their home. Our premium, effortless modular smart lighting solutions make it easy for builders and homeowners to offer affordable luxury—combining beautiful design, effortless installation, and future-ready smart home compatibility. Key Responsibilities Combine expertise across firmware control systems, advanced sensing algorithms, custom PCBA design, component selection, manufacturing support, and quality assurance procedures as integrated development processes rather than separate engineering disciplines. Utilize direct customer engagement to guide technical design decisions ensuring new technologies and features address real-world installation challenges faced by both professional electricians and DIY consumers. Implement user experience validation through prototype testing and iterative refinement based on customer feedback, demonstrating ability to translate technical capabilities into compelling consumer value propositions. Design, implement, and debug embedded firmware for Atmel and STM32 microcontrollers using C programming language and Eclipse-based IDEs. Develop switch control systems requiring deep understanding of real-time embedded systems, interrupt handling, and hardware abstraction layers. Engineer novel sensor systems for complex environments utilizing firmware-based digital signal processing, analog signal conditioning circuits, and algorithm development. Employ Python and Excel for prototyping and iterative design optimization of sensing algorithms for consumer applications. Architect and implement low-cost communication protocols for electrically connected light switch networks. Integrate rapid electronic prototyping, C firmware development, and dataanalytics infrastructure using Google Sheets for field data collection and real-world algorithm optimization. Conduct comprehensive microcontroller selection analysis using vendor relationships and technical research. Develop custom drivers and bring up peripheral functionality using C programming, technical documentation, and AI-assisted development tools such as Claude CLI. Utilize Altium Designer for schematic capture, BOM creation, and multi-layer PCB layout design for production consumer electronics at volumes up to 100k per year. Collaborate with PCB vendors for prototyping and contract manufacturers for design-for-manufacturing optimization. Provide on-site and remote manufacturing programming support, requiring expertise in compilation toolchains, firmware flashing procedures, and comprehensive product functionality testing with incoming quality controls, in circuit testing and functional circuit testing. Source electronic components through vendor relationships and online resources, ensuring compliance with safety standards while optimizing cost and functionality for consumer electronic products. Work with contract manufacturers using PLM services to specify components to be used in production. Design and implement robotic test systems using Arduino, Raspberry Pi, Python, and C++. Develop automated data collection systems utilizing UART and I2C protocols for sensor data extraction and desktop computer integration for analysis and storage. Execute rapid de-risking of technical challenges through iterative experimental approaches. Manage high-uncertainty projects requiring scientific methodology, stakeholder communication, and drive agile project planning in fast-paced development environments. Soldering and PCB rework expertise utilized to reduce prototype cycles and reduce cost of development. Diagnose electronic and firmware issues using digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and custom 1605463093.1 303756133 v1 microcontroller-based diagnostic equipment. Document failure modes, implement corrective actions, and coordinate with external suppliers for issue resolution and verification. Create comprehensive technical documentation using Draw.io, Google Workspace suite for internal design communication and external partner collaboration. Prepare patent documentation for novel inventions and conduct structured FMEA analysis to identify and mitigate design. Employer will allow a remote/in-office hybrid work schedule.
