System Engineer Jobs

About The Position

Requirements

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
• 7+ years of proven experience in electronic system design or top-level chip architecture/specification.
• Excellent electrical engineering fundamentals, including basic circuits, analog, digital, and power.
• Familiarity with open-ended constraints and using an understanding of user experience to define electrical requirements.

Nice To Haves

• Master’s or Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
• Acquaintance with the ASIC/semiconductor development and manufacturing process.
• Familiarity with digital architecture fundamentals, such as memory and power-state management.
• Understanding of how computer-design tradeoffs affect power consumption.
• Ability to work across the stack, from analog sensing front ends through digital signal processing to how subsystem performance appears in user-facing features.
• Knowledge of digital signal-processing techniques and implementation tradeoffs.
• Ability to understand tradeoffs among electrical, mechanical, and software domains.
• Practical knowledge of communication protocols, especially USB, SPI, I2C, and UART.
• Hands-on experience in prototype bring-up, debugging, and functional verification.

Responsibilities

• Develop system-level specifications.
• Analyze and review custom silicon designs from in-house designers and third-party vendors.
• Evaluate how sensing and signal-processing subsystems integrate into the broader architecture.
• Investigate technologies that could enable new customer features.
• Conduct feasibility studies for novel systems during early concept phases.
• Focus on system integration and architecture of custom silicon, interface and data-path efficiency, and the impact of user-facing use cases.
• Translate end-user features into low-level electrical and architectural specifications across the full signal chain, from analog front ends and sensing modules through digital processing and firmware interfaces.
• Understand interactions among system submodules and project and mitigate coexistence issues at the architectural level.
• Balance electrical, mechanical, software, power, and physical-size tradeoffs to arrive at realizable solutions.
