PCB Design/ Embedded Hardware Engineer

$70 per hour Milpitas, CA Contract

• Job Description:

• The Electrical Design Engineer will be responsible for designing and developing electrical parts, modules, and subsystems that contribute to the design and performance of complex systems. This role involves end-to-end ownership of the electrical design process — from requirements definition and feasibility analysis through detailed design, prototyping, testing, and handoff to manufacturing.
• Circuit Design & Analysis
• + Analog + Digital circuit design (power supplies, signal conditioning, microcontroller interfaces). + Strong fundamentals: Ohm's law, filters, op-amps, timing circuits. + Ability to debug boards using oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers.

• Responsibilities:

• + Lead the design and development of electrical and electronic systems, including schematics, PCB layout guidance, Flex PCBA layout, and component selection + Design and develop electrical parts, modules, and subsystems supporting overall system architecture.

+ Drive the complete design process including requirements gathering, feasibility studies, cost estimation, and project scheduling. + Conduct detailed hands-on testing and analyses, including circuit, timing, electrical load, and thermal/cooling assessments. + Utilize industry-standard design tools such as

• OrCAD, PSpice
• , or similar for conceptual and detailed design. + Prepare detailed design documentation including schematics, drawings, and design review presentations. + Procure prototype components, perform system integration, and support prototype testing activities.

• Experience:

• + •1.
