Description
you want to lead a team of talented eCAD designers creating state of the art miniaturized PCBs? Do you want to push the limits of PCB technology while maintaining exceptional reliability? If so, then we have a great opportunity for you. We recently created a role for PCB eCAD Lead Designer to work in our Engineering Development and Special Projects (EDSP) group.
You will be leading a team of PCB eCAD Designers who are a part of development teams that primarily develop specialized communications products for government, military, space, and commercial customers. Candidate will be responsible for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design including: component creation, component library maintenance, and layout.
You will be involved in challenging work with an emphasis on product design miniaturization by working closely with a cross-functional team including electrical, mechanical, and RF engineers. Upon completion of the design work, the candidate will interface with assembly teams including Class 10,000 cleanroom, surface mount technology (SMT), and final assembly to ensure project success.
