  • Design and develop Single Board Computer (SBCs), FPGA/DSP Carrier boards, and I/O products following established development processes
  • Work cross-functionally with Product Management and Engineering to create derived requirements for circuit board designs
  • Responsible for digital circuit design including state of the art Intel and ARM processors, DDR memory, FPGAs, MPSoC's, and RFSoC's
  • Responsible for design of high-speed digital interfaces such as DDR4/5, PCIe, multi-Gigabit Ethernet
  • Use Mentor Expedition Dx tools for schematic capture
  • Select components to meet electrical, functional, ruggedization, and reliability requirements.
  • Pivot quickly with new approaches, when necessary, in response to customer feedback and test results.
  • Perform initial board bring up and testing
  • Perform verification and validation testing including regression testing during the lifecycle of the product
  • Support existing products with technical and life-cycle changes and updates. Troubleshoot/debug issues that come up during validation testing and after product release to drive quick resolutions
  • Design and architect system backplane and I/O solutions
  • Perform and support signal integrity analysis
  • Prepare source, binary, and documentation files for use in a manufacturing environment
  • Design power systems to meet noise, performance, and size goals
  • Release final product into production, and support project manager with closing out internal process deliverables
  • Adopt and drive compliance with Abaco Engineering processes and standards, generate and drive support of best-practices, and drive efficiency through improved processes
  • Identify technical and program risks and drive mitigation strategies
