Full Job Description
Job Description
We are seeking a versatile and hands-on Electrical Engineer to lead the design, development, and validation of the electrical subsystems that power our SmartMast™ platform-an edge-deployed, Linux and GPU-based sensor node for maritime intelligence. In this role, you will be responsible for the full lifecycle of electrical design, from schematic capture and multi-layer PCB layout through to board bring-up, hardware debugging, and environmental validation. This includes integrating core compute hardware, rugged power delivery, peripheral interfaces, multi-sensor payloads, and EMI/resilience measures required for harsh marine field deployments. You'll collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to evolve SmartMast™ into a modular, production-grade edge sensing platform.
Key Responsibilities
Create schematics and multi-layer board layouts using industry-standard EDA tools, optimized for thermal, EMI, and mechanical constraints.
Oversee PCB fabrication and assembly partners, managing BOMs, performing DFM/DFA reviews, and validating prototype runs.
Integrate and interface peripherals and sensor payloads, including cameras, GPUs, SDRs, GNSS/GPS, IMUs, PoE, radar, and environmental sensors.
Design rugged power delivery networks, including battery integration, surge suppression, and redundant regulation paths for safety-critical systems.
Perform hands-on electrical bring-up, validation, and board-level troubleshooting across prototypes and production units using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and lab instrumentation.
Drive design-for-reliability initiatives across shock, vibration, ingress protection (IP rating), lightning protection, and extreme thermal conditions.
Support enclosure packaging and harness design in close collaboration with mechanical engineering to ensure robust physical and electrical integration.
Maintain comprehensive engineering documentation, including schematics, test procedures, manufacturing guidelines, and hardware change logs (ECOs).
Collaborate with software and AI teams to validate hardware stability and signal integrity under real-world workloads and operational field conditions.
Qualifications (Preferred)
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
6+ years of experience designing, bringing up, and delivering production-grade embedded hardware and mixed-signal systems.
Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD).
Strong foundation in high-speed signal integrity, power electronics, and mixed-signal design principles.
Hands-on experience with hardware bring-up, bench validation, and lab debugging using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters.
Familiarity with camera and high-speed data interfaces (CSI, USB3, Ethernet, PCIe) as well as serial buses (I2C, SPI, UART, CAN).
Experience designing ruggedized electronics built for environmentally constrained, high-reliability, or outdoor deployments.
Strong collaboration and communication skills across multidisciplinary hardware, software, and mechanical teams.
Bonus: experience with NVIDIA embedded platforms (Jetson), RF design considerations, or marine/aerospace hardware deployments.
Work Environment
Flexible working hours with occasional deadlines requiring high availability.
Opportunity to work on innovative projects with a global impact.
