Senior Platform Hardware Design Engineer

Job Description

Drives end to end development of platform hardware and translates platform level requirements to circuit and component level specifications. Designs, develops, modifies, and evaluates electronic parts, components, PCB, or integrated circuitry for hardware platforms, electrical engineering applications, and equipment. Conducts logical design of printed circuit boards through component definition and schematic capture, defines component placement and circuit trace routing rules, and oversees board layout from feasibility studies to board tapeout while meeting multidisciplinary platformlevel requirements. Considers BOM cost and availability data versus design tradeoffs at the board and system levels. Applies design expertise to define processes for technical platforms, system specifications, input/output, and working parameters for hardware and software compatibility. Incorporates feedback from other functions (including verification, validation, manufacturing, and customer) to improve development methods. Performs design research and verification, development, testing, and utilization of firmware, hardware, components, mechanisms, materials, thermal solutions, circuitry processes, packaging, and chassis for platform hardware. Collaborates with architects, other platform hardware design engineers, hardware verification engineers, technical project managers, and technicians to plan and lead platform hardware poweron and debug activities. Resolves system development and bringup issues to deliver highquality boards and platforms for customers.
