- Develop and manage board-level hardware requirements and performance parameters.
- Design embedded computer hardware with microcontroller/processor integration, including component selection for processing, memory, power, and interfaces.
- Perform schematic capture and circuit analysis and simulation (power budget, thermal, derating, worst-case).
- Work with ECAD on PCB layout constraints and review routing.
- Plan and perform testing of boards and integrated assemblies, supporting verification and validation.
- Coordinate with hardware, software, mechanical, and avionics teams on crew interface integration.
- Prepare design documentation and present at design reviews.
- Perform other duties as assigned.
