About The Position

Our Hardware Systems Engineers have an insatiable desire to make things better, constantly unsatisfied with the status quo. They love to tinker and are undeterred by the idea of breaking something if it means possibly improving it! In this role, you’ll be the glue that connects the design and production phases of our engineering processes. You’ll work on developing next-generation product enhancements working closely with leadership and senior engineers. You’ll immediately contribute to developing unorthodox products by: Designing and reviewing schematics, PCBs, and documentation in Altium, verifying designs match the requirements set forth Developing electrical systems and maintaining hardware with limited oversight Rework and debug of various circuits from prototyping to production Creating innovative test procedures and frameworks, validating new designs, helping to automate testing to accelerate project timelines Contributing to multidisciplinary development teams to design new and improve existing products with challenging expectations in a timely manner and in accordance with system behavior. Creating, managing, and executing product validation plans including, but not limited to accelerated life, CE certification, field (in the ocean), and vibration testing Assisting in diagnosing product design issues prior to product launch Designing, building, and/or specifying test apparatus and infrastructure Effectively communicating test results, observations, and conclusions in a clear, concise, and intuitive way Documenting and cataloging collected data for future use

Requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering with at least 1 year of experience in a related field or a Master’s Degree combined with strong internship and co-op experience
