Senior Hardware Engineer (Teradyne, North Reading, MA)

Teradyne•North Reading, MA

1d•$114,000 - $182,500

About The Position

Teradyne’s Integrated Systems Test (IST) Hardware Engineering team is seeking a Senior Hardware Engineer to develop electronic hardware for storage and system-level test products. The engineer owns complex board-level designs from requirements and initial concept through schematic development, PCB implementation, prototype bring-up, verification, and release. The role applies expertise across digital, analog, mixed-signal, embedded, high-speed interface, and power designs, working collaboratively across engineering disciplines throughout the product-development lifecycle. The position also supports product introduction, manufacturing, and sustaining activities and provides technical guidance to less-experienced engineers.

Requirements

BS in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related engineering discipline.
Typically 5+ years of hands-on electronic hardware development experience.
Demonstrated experience owning complex board-level designs from requirements through schematic development, PCB implementation, prototype bring-up, verification, and release.
Broad knowledge of digital, analog, mixed-signal, embedded, high-speed interface, and board-level power design.
Strong understanding of multilayer PCB design, controlled impedance, differential signaling, grounding, manufacturability, and testability.
Strong laboratory bring-up, troubleshooting, and root-cause-analysis skills.
Demonstrated technical ownership, sound engineering judgment, and ability to independently solve complex hardware problems.
Strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.
Ability to provide technical guidance to others and develop broader technical leadership capabilities.

Responsibilities

Design and develop complex printed circuit board assemblies.
Translate product and system requirements into hardware architectures and detailed circuit designs.
Develop digital, analog, mixed-signal, and board-level power circuitry and select appropriate components.
Create and review schematics and supporting design documentation.
Design embedded systems incorporating processors, microcontrollers, FPGAs, memory, and peripheral devices.
Design with high-speed interfaces including PCIe, Ethernet, USB, DDR, and similar technologies.
Implement interfaces including I²C, SPI, UART, GPIO, and JTAG.
Design DC/DC conversion, regulation, sequencing, monitoring, protection, and power distribution.
Define component placement, PCB stackups, routing constraints, controlled impedance, differential-pair requirements, grounding, and return paths.
Participate in schematic and PCB design reviews.
Develop and execute hardware bring-up, characterization, verification, and integration plans.
Perform hands-on laboratory debug and root-cause analysis of complex board- and system-level issues.
Independently drive assigned designs and technical issues to resolution.
Collaborate across engineering disciplines throughout the product-development lifecycle.
Support product introduction, manufacturing, and sustaining activities.
Provide technical guidance to less-experienced engineers.
