About The Position

We are seeking an Electrical Engineer (10+ years experience) to join a small, highly collaborative engineering team working on copper Ethernet cabling systems and hybrid fiber‑power solutions. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys a hands‑on, broad technical scope and thrives in a dynamic, fast-moving development environment. The successful candidate will contribute across the full product lifecycle—from concept and analysis through testing, documentation, and field support—acting as a technical generalist with depth in electrical engineering fundamentals.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering (required; other degrees not considered)
  • 10+ years of relevant engineering experience (entry‑level candidates encouraged to apply)
  • Strong foundation in: Circuit analysis, Electromagnetics and signal integrity, AC/DC power fundamentals, RF principles
  • Ability to work effectively in a small‑team, multi-disciplinary environment
  • Willingness to be hands‑on in both lab and office settings
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

Nice To Haves

  • Exposure to structured cabling systems, Ethernet PHYs, or high-speed copper links
  • Familiarity with: Vector Network Analyzers (VNAs), Time‑domain reflectometry (TDR), Power electronics or fault‑managed power concepts
  • Experience with MATLAB, Python, or similar tools for data analysis
  • Awareness of TIA, IEEE 802, UL, NEC, or IEC standards

Responsibilities

  • Support the design, analysis, and validation of copper Ethernet cabling systems, including twisted‑pair performance characteristics (impedance, insertion loss, crosstalk, return loss, etc.)
  • Contribute to the development and evaluation of hybrid fiber‑power (HFP/FMPS) and powered communications systems, including power delivery, protection, and integration considerations
  • Assist with electrical modeling, simulation, and lab measurement of cables, connectors, and system‑level performance
  • Participate in failure analysis and root‑cause investigations related to electrical and signal‑integrity issues
  • Conduct and document laboratory testing (electrical, thermal, environmental, and EMC‑related tests)
  • Use network analyzers, oscilloscopes, power supplies, data loggers, and related instrumentation
  • Support development and execution of test plans aligned with industry standards (TIA, IEEE, IEC, UL, NEC, and ect. as applicable)
  • Work closely with mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and compliance teams
  • Support interaction with suppliers, contract manufacturers, and field personnel
  • Assist with preparation of technical documentation, drawings, reports, and internal design reviews
  • Stay current with evolving Ethernet, cabling, and power‑delivery technologies
  • Support Product Development‑related activities and product qualification efforts
  • Support standards development through participation and contribution
  • Support the industry through peer reviewed publication
  • Provide technical assistance during prototyping, pilot builds, and early deployments
