Electrical Engineer II, Video Products - Sustaining; Onsite Scottsdale, Arizona,

Location:

Scottsdale, Arizona, United States

What You'll Do

• Update in-market circuit designs to address component obsolescence, component changes, second-source requests, cost savings, and other post-launch design improvements for mass production electronics
• Collaborate with cross functional engineering design teams, technology partners, and manufacturing teams to own electronics maintenance during the post launch lifecycle.
• Execute bench verification and performance evaluation of components and circuits using laboratory tools such as oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers, power supplies, etc.
• Perform debug, failure analysis, and rework of electronics systems, circuits, and components
• Using OrCAD Schematic tools, improve or modify embedded high-density, high-speed mixed-signal electronic circuits that integrate a wide array of electronics: application processors, microcontrollers, image sensors, high- and low-speed data interfaces, high-speed memory, switch-mode and linear power supplies, batteries, audio subsystems, RF transceivers, discrete digital and analog components, PCBs and Flexible PCBs, and a lot more.
• Team with PCB Design engineers to define, plan, implement, and inspect printed circuit board layout updates using Allegro or other layout tools
• Test and evaluate basic RF performance of wireless circuitry (Cellular, Wifi, Bluetooth, GNSS, etc) in assigned in-market products
• Map out test methods, perform system and component verification testing, and drive test plans for evaluating electronics design changes.
• Assess and document design change outcomes, test results, and related information and present information to design teams and management.
• Provide hardware support (sample preparation, documentation, debug) to the global regulatory compliance team for product certifications (FCC, IC, CE, PTCRB, etc)
• Update, evaluate, and finalize Bill of Materials and other design documentation.

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or similar engineering discipline
• Minimum 5 years of industry electronics design or electronics sustaining experience with mass-produced high-speed, high-density, portable, battery-powered devices, and/or low-power vehicular embedded electronics products.
• Proficient with identifying and implementing alternate source electronic component solutions and/or circuit design changes necessary to address design improvement, obsolescence, supply chain easement, etc, of released mass production electronics.
• Proficiency with general process of making design changes to Bills of Material (BOMs), schematics, layouts as needed for change requests.
• Strong proficiency with basic discrete analog and digital circuit design (passive/active components, complex circuit analysis)
• Demonstrated experience with component selection, circuit design, and verification testing in several of the following areas:
• Power supplies (SMPS, LDO, other regulators), applications processors/microcontrollers, high speed memory subsystems (LPDDRx, eMMC), high- and low- speed communications interfaces (USB, Ethernet, I2C, SPI), audio components (digital and analog MEMs mics), RF subsystem components (Wifi, BT, LTE, GNSS), sensor systems, protection circuitry (ESD, voltage and current limiting components), SMT connectors, batteries and battery packs, PCBAs, Flex PCBAs, etc
• Experience with High Speed circuit design and test (eg. USB
  3.x, Ethernet, RF, DDRx, etc)
• Basic experience with RF integration and test (eg. Bluetooth, BLE, Wifi, GNSS, Cellular)
