As our Electrical Engineer III you will design advanced circuitry for our communications and power-management products. Work across the full development cycle-from concept through production-developing analog, digital, audio, sensing, and battery-powered systems while driving hands-on bring-up, validation, and cross-functional integration. This role requires technical depth, initiative, and the ability to work independently or as part of a team, with minimal supervision. Includes resolving field and production issues and influencing overall project direction. Degree of supervision required to perform job duties should not exceed 20%.

  • Develop audio circuitry - Work with A/D and D/A converters, audio power amps, op-amps, and signal-chain components.
  • Engineer advanced analog circuits - Filters, FETs, linear/switch-mode power supplies, battery monitoring, and charging.
  • Validate product performance - Test, analyze, and document performance to meet customer and regulatory requirements.
  • Support existing products - Implement updates, troubleshoot issues, and assist factory and field teams.
  • Create production-ready documentation - Generate schematics (Altium), BOMs, ECNs, test plans, and specifications.
  • Guide PCB design - Provide direction on routing, high-speed interfaces, impedance control, power distribution, and EMC compliance.
  • Perform hands-on troubleshooting - Use oscilloscopes, DMMs, and lab equipment to debug and refine designs.
  • Define and execute testing - Lead performance, reliability, EMC, and failure-analysis testing.
  • Establish production test requirements - Define board-level and end-of-line test strategies and select appropriate equipment.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally - Work with Sales, Quality, Mechanical, Firmware, and Manufacturing Engineering.
  • Drive design reviews - Participate in design reviews and DFMEAs to ensure robust, high-quality designs.
  • Ensure regulatory compliance - Coordinate with test labs and agencies to meet industry standards.
  • Support project planning - Help define timelines and ensure adherence to project schedules.
  • Take on evolving challenges - Contribute to additional engineering tasks as projects grow and shift.
  • Assists with other related duties as required or assigned.

About you - What you'll bring to the table:
  • BSEE degree
  • U.S. Citizen
  • 5+ years of concept-to-production experience
  • Expertise in digital, analog, and audio circuit design - Including bring-up and HW/SW integration.
  • Microprocessor interface experience - SDIO, I²C, SPI, RS-232, UART, JTAG, parallel/serial interfaces.
  • Sensor and audio subsystem knowledge - GPS, accelerometers, IMUs, speakers, microphones.
  • Connectivity proficiency - Strong understanding of Bluetooth, USB, and related protocols.
  • Battery-system knowledge - Charging circuits, battery technologies, and power-management fundamentals.
  • EMC/ESD mitigation experience - Designing for noise reduction, compliance, and robustness.
  • Embedded software familiarity (a plus, not required)
  • Failure-analysis capability - Diagnose issues, interpret test results, and drive design improvements.
  • CAD proficiency - Schematic/layout tools; Altium preferred.
  • Strong execution discipline - Able to prioritize, meet deadlines, and manage multiple tasks.
  • Excellent communication and teamwork
  • Microsoft Office proficiency
  • Independent, results-oriented problem solver - Flexible, proactive, and effective in both solo and team environments.
