Job Title: PCB Layout Designer (Altium, HDI, Rigid-Flex)

Location: Preferred: Massachusetts (Haverhill or Waltham). Buffalo, NY also great. Remote candidates considered.

Role Overview

We're looking for a PCB Layout Designer experienced in Altium Designer, with a strong background in HDI and rigid-flex PCB designs. You’ll collaborate with hardware, RF, and mechanical engineers to develop complex boards that meet demanding performance and manufacturability standards.

Key Responsibilities

  • Perform PCB layout using Altium Designer for digital, analog, RF, and mixed-signal designs.
  • Design HDI and rigid-flex PCBs with high-speed routing, controlled impedance, and memory interfaces (DDR, LPDDR).
  • Apply EMI/EMC mitigation, signal integrity best practices, and proper PCB stack-up strategies.
  • Collaborate across engineering teams to optimize designs for thermal, mechanical, and manufacturability considerations.
  • Implement DFM/DFA principles and coordinate with PCB fabrication and assembly vendors.
  • Support RF design, including antenna layouts and impedance-controlled traces.
  • Generate full fabrication and assembly documentation: Gerber/ODB++, fab drawings, notes, BOMs, and assembly files.
  • Participate in design reviews and resolve layout-related issues efficiently.

Qualifications

  • 3–7+ years of professional PCB layout experience.
  • Expert-level proficiency in Altium Designer.
  • Strong experience with HDI and rigid-flex PCB layouts.
  • Familiarity with high-speed digital interfaces: PCIe, DDR, USB 3.x, Ethernet.
  • Solid understanding of EMI/EMC design, impedance control, and RF layout practices.
  • Experience working closely with PCB fabricators and assemblers under DFM/DFA constraints.
  • Knowledge of PCB stack-up design, materials, and modern manufacturing processes.
  • Strong collaboration and communication skills.

Preferred (Nice-to-Haves)

  • Experience with IPC standards (e.g., IPC-2221/2223, IPC-6012).
  • Familiarity with ECAD-MCAD integration or 3D PCB modeling tools.
  • Experience designing to military or industrial standards.

Why Join Bounce Imaging?

  • Real-World Impact – Your PCB designs will power life-saving technology used by tactical teams worldwide.
  • Collaboration & Growth – Work closely with a cross-functional team of engineers and expand your skills in RF, DFM, and high-speed design.
  • Ownership & Innovation – Take full ownership of your layouts from concept through production in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
