Job description

Cooperidge Consulting Firm is seeking an Embedded Electrical Design Engineer for a premier, privately-held manufacturing leader in Columbia, MO.

Our client is an established mechanical powerhouse currently undergoing a strategic transformation into the electromechanical and smart-product space. This role is a cornerstone of that evolution, responsible for the end-to-end design and manufacture of electronic assemblies. You will lead the charge in developing new applications, taking products from initial PCB design through complex board-bring-up and systems integration. This is an ideal role for an engineer who thrives in a "maker" environment where mechanical heritage meets future-forward electrical innovation.
Job Responsibilities

  • Embedded Hardware Design: Lead the design and development of embedded hardware solutions for new electromechanical product lines.
  • PCB Design & Layout: Execute high-fidelity Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design and layout, ensuring manufacturability and high-reliability performance.
  • Board-Bring-Up: Conduct initial power-on, functional testing, and debugging of new hardware prototypes to ensure system integrity.
  • Electromechanical Integration: Partner with in-house mechanical engineers to convert traditional mechanical products into sophisticated electromechanical systems.
  • Collaboration & Consulting: Serve as a technical bridge between software engineers, customer engineering teams, and outside consultants to align product goals.
  • Simulation & Analysis: Utilize electronics simulation tools to predict performance and optimize designs before moving to physical manufacturing.
  • Lifecycle Support: Oversee the transition of electronic assemblies from the design phase into full-scale manufacturing.

Requirements

Education & Legal
  • Bachelorโ€™s degree (B.S.) in Electrical Engineering is REQUIRED.
  • U.S. Citizenship or Permanent Residency is REQUIRED (No exceptions).
Experience
  • Minimum of two (2) to five (5) years of related engineering experience.
  • Proven track record in the design and manufacture of electronic assemblies.
  • Direct experience with embedded hardware design and PCB design.
  • Hands-on experience with board-bring-up and electromechanical product testing.
Preferred Qualifications (Nice-to-Have)
  • Experience with embedded hardware in truck, commercial vehicle, or automotive applications.
  • Proficiency in electronics simulation software (e.g., SPICE, Altium, or similar).
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a cross-functional environment with mechanical and software disciplines.

Benefits

  • Comprehensive health, vision, and dental insurance plans
  • Life insurance coverage
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company matching contributions
  • Paid time off including vacation, sick leave, and holidays
  • Opportunities for career growth and advancement
