  • You embrace change - thriving in a diverse environment of ever-changing priorities and sometimes stressful situations.
  • Curiosity to understand new technologies, analyze, troubleshoot, and solve complex problems.
  • You are self-motivated - always seeking out and methodically tackling sophisticated technical issues.
  • The ability to effectively communicate - tailoring your message to the audience and presenting information in such a way that it is easily understood.
  • A dedication to ongoing learning - allowing you to acquire information and develop new skills to solve complex problems.
The Must Haves:
  • Degree in Electrical, Optical, Computer, or Engineering Physics or equivalent.
  • Ability to work on site in office and lab typically 5 days a week.
Assets:
  • Experience designing circuit boards, preferably for telecom or a high-reliability application.
  • Experience in board-level simulation and circuit simulation methodology.
  • Experience in hardware design implementing circuits involving microprocessors, ASICs, FPGAs, memories, and optical devices.
  • Knowledge of high-speed design and transmission line theory.
  • Knowledge of precision analog design, including development and verification of noise, precision, and stability budgets.
  • Demonstrated use of schematic capture and layout tools such as the Cadence Allegro tool suite.
  • Experience with hands-on lab measurement techniques, automation scripts, and test equipment.
