• Hands-on experience with mixed-signal circuits, power supply designs, processor-based systems, and cable designs.
• Experience using schematic-design tools such as CADSTAR and OrCAD.
• Experience using circuit-simulation tools such as ADS, LTspice, or PSpice.
• Strong experience in board-level and system-level troubleshooting, failure analysis, and root-cause analysis.
• Experience preparing engineering drawings, BOMs, test plans, and product documentation.
• Working knowledge of product lifecycle management, configuration control, and ECN release processes.
• Ability to interpret technical requirements and recommend practical, manufacturable solutions.
• Strong analytical, documentation, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with PLM and BOM management systems.
• Python scripting experience for diagnostics or test automation.
• Experience with DFx, Design for Manufacturability, FMEA, and DOE.
• Experience identifying and qualifying lower-cost alternatives for commercial components such as monitors, printers, card readers, and scanners.
• Experience supporting manufacturing, field service, and product-return investigations.

Responsibilities

• Develop electrical hardware designs, CAD models, schematics, cable drawings, and engineering drawings for manufacturing release.
• Prepare schematics for new circuit designs using CADSTAR and OrCAD.
• Perform linear and nonlinear circuit simulations using ADS, LTspice, and PSpice.
• Design and validate mixed-signal circuits, power supplies, processor-based systems, and cable assemblies.
• Evaluate product requirements, technical risks, problem definitions, and operational feasibility to recommend appropriate solutions.
• Troubleshoot board-level and system-level hardware failures.
• Evaluate field-returned units and verify reported issues through structured diagnostic and failure-analysis processes.
• Review error logs, debug files, and test results to identify defects and implement corrective actions.
• Develop Python scripts and diagnostic tools to support product testing and troubleshooting.
• Conduct DFx, Design for Manufacturability, FMEA, DOE, design reviews, and validation activities.
• Prepare and maintain product Bill of Materials structures, including parent-child relationships, quantities, costs, compliance information, and component lifecycle risks.
• Review BOM compliance roll-ups and maintain product data within PLM and BOM management systems.
• Support user administration, data corrections, and BOM updates when required.
• Follow applicable Engineering Change Notice processes and configuration-management standards.
• Identify component alternatives and product or process improvement opportunities that reduce cost and improve quality.
• Prepare production test plans to verify product functionality and performance.
• Develop and maintain product manuals, operational manuals, requirements documents, design documents, and other engineering documentation.
• Collaborate with manufacturing, quality, software, supply chain, service, and project teams throughout the product lifecycle.

Benefits

• Opportunity to lead hardware design initiatives and help shape engineering solutions at MASS Tech.
• Competitive salary and performance-based bonus.
• Paid time off and holiday policy.
• Professional development stipend.
