Overview of the role
Our hardware engineering team is focused on simulating, designing and developing electronic circuits for advanced navigation technologies utilising analogue signal processing and digital circuits. This role contributes throughout the entire design phase from prototype to development, and through manufacturing for complex products.
Role and responsibilities:
- Design analogue signal chain processing circuits (filters, amplifiers, etc.), digital signal circuits including high-speed interfaces
- Develop mixed signal processing chains (ie A-D and D-A)
- Create PCB schematic designs and layouts using Altium Designer
- Simulate and optimise circuits in LTSpice
- Collaborate closely with our software team to ensure hardware designs meet software requirements
- Design and modify basic 3D CAD models for fit, function and manufacturability
- Preparation of documents required for design data packs, such as: specifications, compliance matrices, design calculations, analysis reports, drawings, test plans, test reports and BOMs
- Documenting all engineering testing and investigation work to a high standard and utilising the peer review process to ensure cross checking is performed and documented
- Design for Manufacturing and Assembly using sound engineering methodologies
- Developing assembly, repair and test techniques, sourcing of alternates to obsolete parts and materials, and testing as per appropriate engineering specifications
Qualifications and experience:
- Bachelor degree or higher in electrical/electronic engineering and/or mechatronics
- 3+ years of experience in designing and developing complex electronics with specific experience in precision analogue data acquisition, processing, and high speed digital circuits
- Proficient in using industry standard tools such as SPICE, Altium Designer, Matlab
- Experience with FPGA tool chain and debugging highly regarded
- A proactive self-starting approach with a track record of initiative, personal responsibility, ownership of work and reputation for making things happen
- Be highly motivated with an energetic, responsive and decisive disposition
- Strong knowledge of WHS practices
- Proven high standard of attention to detail, time management and “follow-through”
