Were seeking a skilled and detail-oriented PCB Designer to join our Hardware Engineering team. You will play a crucial role in translating electrical designs into high-quality printed circuit boards for our cutting-edge wearable devices. You will work closely with electrical engineers to ensure that our PCBs meet the demanding requirements of performance, reliability, and miniaturization.

What Youll Do:

PCB Layout Design: Create detailed PCB layouts from schematics, considering signal integrity, power distribution, thermal management, and manufacturability.
Schematic Capture: Assist electrical engineers in schematic capture and component selection.
Component Placement: Optimize component placement for density, signal routing, and thermal performance.
Routing: Perform complex routing of high-speed digital and analog signals.
Design for Manufacturability (DFM): Ensure designs adhere to DFM guidelines and work closely with manufacturing partners to refine your designs.
Stack-up Design: Define PCB stack-up to meet impedance control and signal integrity requirements.
Gerber Generation: Generate and review Gerber files and other manufacturing documentation.
Design Reviews: Participate in design reviews to ensure quality and identify potential issues.
Collaboration: Work closely with electrical engineers, mechanical engineers, and firmware engineers.
Library Management: Maintain and organize PCB component libraries.

This is a US onsite role, candidates must be based in the San Diego region for this opportunity.

We would love to have you on our team if you have:

5+ years of experience as a PCB Designer, preferably in consumer electronics or wearable devices.
Proficiency in PCB layout tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or similar.
Strong understanding of state of the art PCB fabrication processes, design rules, and materials.
Knowledge of signal integrity principles and techniques.
Experience with high-density, multi-layer PCB and flex design.
Excellent attention to detail and a commitment to quality.
Strong communication and collaboration skills.
Ability to work independently and as part of a team.

Bonus Points:

Experience with rigid-flex PCB design.
Experience with HDI (High-Density Interconnect) technology.
Experience with component library management systems.
Experience working with PDM/PLM systems (ie. Teamcenter, Agile)
Familiarity with IPC standards.
