About The Position

Lead hands-on electronics design for battery-powered Sonicare products, taking project-level hardware from concept through industrialization and production readiness. Own project-level electronics design for Sonicare products as a hands-on technical lead, making sound hardware design decisions independently while partnering with hardware architects on platform direction. Design schematics, guide and review printed circuit board layouts, and resolve cross-disciplinary hardware design issues in partnership with firmware, mechanical, verification, industrialization, procurement, suppliers, and central layout teams, with flexibility to collaborate across global sites and time zones. Help turn designs into reliable high-volume products by applying design for manufacturing and design for test, supporting automated functional test, analyzing production data to identify quality-critical trends before they become production issues, and working with suppliers during industrialization.
