Circuit Design Engineer Remote Jobs in Elizabeth, NJ

Senior Circuit Design Engineer OpportunityWe are sharing a specialised consulting opportunity for senior circuit design engineers with doctoral-level expertise and substantial hands-on industry experience designing analog, digital, power, or RF circuits.This role supports an advanced AI research initiative focused on creating highly challenging electrical engineering problems grounded in realistic circuit design scenarios. Selected professionals will author original free-response problems, develop complete expert-level solutions, and evaluate each problem against frontier AI models to ensure it requires sophisticated engineering reasoning.Key ResponsibilitiesCircuit Design Problem DevelopmentAuthor original, technically rigorous free-response problems involving real-world circuit designDevelop questions requiring advanced engineering reasoning rather than straightforward textbook recallCreate scenarios involving analog, digital, power, or RF circuit designIncorporate realistic design constraints, specifications, trade-offs, and implementation considerationsEnsure problems reflect authentic professional circuit design workflowsElectrical Engineering AnalysisApply advanced circuit theory and electrical engineering principles to complex design problemsDevelop scenarios involving component selection, circuit architecture, performance requirements, and design optimisationIncorporate practical considerations such as noise, power, stability, bandwidth, signal integrity, efficiency, or reliability where relevantEvaluate design decisions using realistic technical and production constraintsEnsure technical assumptions and calculations are accurate and internally consistentExpert Solution DevelopmentWrite complete expert-level solutions for each authored problemClearly document calculations, assumptions, methodology, and engineering reasoningExplain relevant circuit behaviour and design trade-offs with appropriate technical depthEnsure solutions are rigorous, reproducible, and independently verifiableProduce reference answers suitable for evaluating advanced engineering reasoningAI Difficulty ValidationTest authored problems against multiple frontier language modelsEvaluate whether current AI systems can correctly solve each engineering problemIdentify reasoning errors, design mistakes, calculation failures, or incomplete technical approachesRefine problems where necessary to maintain an appropriately demanding level of difficultyValidate that each question meaningfully tests advanced circuit design expertiseIdeal ProfileStrong candidates may have:A PhD in Electrical EngineeringAt least 5 years of hands-on professional or industry experience in circuit designSubstantial expertise in analog, digital, power, or RF circuit designDirect experience developing real hardware designs through implementation, production, or tape-outStrong command of advanced circuit analysis and design principlesExperience solving complex engineering problems in professional environmentsAbility to translate real industry challenges into structured technical questionsExcellent analytical reasoning and technical writing skillsEducational BackgroundA PhD in Electrical Engineering is requiredDoctoral-level technical expertise should be complemented by substantial hands-on industry experiencePractical experience designing and delivering real circuits or electronic systems is particularly important for this engagementNice to HaveExperience within a major semiconductor, electronics, aerospace, automotive, telecommunications, energy, or technology organisationAdvanced analog or mixed-signal circuit design experienceDigital circuit or integrated circuit design expertiseBackground in power electronicsRF or high-frequency circuit design experienceExperience taking designs through tape-out or production releasePrior experience authoring engineering assessments, technical problems, or training materialsFamiliarity with AI models or structured technical evaluationWhy This OpportunityApply advanced circuit design expertise to challenging AI researchCreate original engineering problems based on realistic professional workflowsWork across analog, digital, power, and RF circuit designUse substantial industry experience to test the reasoning capabilities of frontier AI systemsHelp identify technical limitations in current AI modelsParticipate in flexible remote consulting work with competitive compensationContract DetailsIndependent contractor roleFully remote with flexible schedulingCompensation of up to $80 per hour depending on expertise and project scopeHands-on circuit design experience is requiredDesign verification experience alone, including roles focused primarily on UVM, SystemVerilog, or DV, does not meet the project requirementsCandidates should have experience shipping, releasing, or taping out real designsWork may include engineering problem authoring, expert solution development, technical validation, and AI model evaluationWeekly payments via Stripe or WiseProjects may be extended, shortened, or adjusted depending on scope and performanceWork will not involve access to confidential or proprietary information from any employer, client, or institutionAbout the PlatformThis opportunity is available through 24-MAG LLC.
