Job Description

Must Have Technical/Functional Skills

Knowledge of PCB technologies and manufacturing Deep understanding of electronics, circuit theory, analog/digital circuits, and RF design. 5 to 8+ years of experience in PCB layout and design, physical layout (stack-up), Board schematic capture

fulfilling design requirements.

At least 5 years of experience building schematic symbols and part footprints Sound knowledge of electrical & electronic components – Surface Mount & through Hole Hand on experience in creation of footprints and sound knowledge of IPC standards associated with PCB design,

fabrication & assembly and MIL standards, PCB library management

Software Proficiency: Expert knowledge of CAD layout tools (Primarily Altium Designer).

Roles & Responsibilities

Physical Layout & Routing: Designing the physical layout of PCBs, including component placement, trace routing,

and layer stack-up management, particularly for high-speed, multi-layer, and rigid-flex boards.

CAD Tool Utilization: Using industry-standard tools (e.g., Altium Designer) to create layouts,

footprints, and schematic symbols.

DFM/DFT Implementation: Applying Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Testability (DFT) principles

to ensure the board can be produced reliably and cost-effectively.

Signal & Power Integrity: Ensuring design compliance with signal integrity (SI) and power integrity (PI)

requirements to prevent EMI/EMC issues.

Documentation & Output: Generating Gerber files, fabrication drawings, and assembly documentation (BOMs)

for production.

Library Management: Creating, updating, and maintaining component footprints and schematic symbols in

EDA libraries.

Specific Responsibilities Include

Prepare complex circuit board layouts to meet the physical and performance constraints imposed by electrical,

mechanical and environmental project requirements based on input from Engineers.

Define the Layout of the PCB according to electrical, mechanical, and manufacturability constraints using the

CAD tools available

Take into consideration and follow design, signal integrity, power integrity, EMC and manufacturing guidelines Complete board layout including all design considerations, routing, preparation for manufacturing

Interfaces with PCB manufacturers to resolve any problems related to design

Generic Managerial Skills, If any

Very good communication skills (verbal and written) Collabora tion: Working with electrical, mechanical, and manufacturing engineers to optimize designs, resolve

technical issues and meet project milestones.

Salary Range: $90,000-$125,000 a year
