How much do pcb manager jobs pay per year?
What are some common challenges faced by a PCB manager?
PCB Managers often encounter challenges such as managing tight project deadlines, ensuring product quality meets industry standards, and addressing design changes during the production process. They must coordinate between design, manufacturing, and quality assurance teams to resolve issues quickly and keep projects on track. Additionally, adapting to evolving technologies and compliance requirements in the electronics industry is a key part of the job. Being proactive, organized, and a strong communicator can help overcome these challenges and ensure successful project outcomes.
What is a PCB manager?
A PCB Manager oversees the design, development, and production of printed circuit boards (PCBs) for electronic devices. They coordinate with engineers, manufacturers, and quality assurance teams to ensure designs meet technical and industry standards. This role involves project management, budgeting, and ensuring timelines are met. Strong knowledge of PCB design software, manufacturing processes, and industry regulations is essential.
What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the PCB manager position, and why are they important?
A PCB Manager needs in-depth knowledge of PCB (Printed Circuit Board) design, manufacturing processes, and quality control, usually supported by a degree in electrical engineering or a related field. Familiarity with industry-standard design tools such as Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, and IPC certification are typically important in this role. Excellent project management, leadership, and communication skills help PCB Managers lead teams and coordinate with cross-functional departments. These skills are crucial to ensure timely delivery of high-quality PCB products, cost-effective operations, and strong collaboration between engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams.

Job description
We are seeking a PCB Design & Validation Engineer to own the design of test/eval boards and lead validation of our high-speed optical transceivers. You will design the PCB platforms that enable development and characterization, with the opportunity to lead PCB design for the transceiver module itself. You will review transceiver requirements, develop validation plans, and execute them across all major subsystems: Ethernet SerDes, internal data pipeline, laser/modulator, mux/demux, and the MCU controller with EEPROM and I2C interfaces.ย
Key Responsibilitiesย
PCB Designย
- Own schematic capture,ย componentย selection, and layout for test/eval boards, development platforms, and transceiver module PCBsย
- Design multi-layer, controlled-impedance boards with high-speed NRZ routing, mixed-signal considerations, and PDN designย
- Manage DRC,ย fabย outputs (Gerbers, assembly drawings), vendor coordination;ย maintainย schematic/footprint librariesย
Validation & Characterizationย
- Develop and execute validation plans covering silicon, module, and system-level testing with defined pass/fail criteriaย
- Characterize SerDes performance (jitter, eye diagrams, BER, equalization) andย validateย data pipeline throughput across PVT cornersย
- Validate optical subsystems (laser/modulator power, extinction ratio, wavelength stability; mux/demuxย isolation, insertion loss)ย
- Test MCU firmware interactions, boot sequences, EEPROM integrity, I2C compliance, and CMIS register map implementationย
- Execute host interop testing, standards compliance (IEEE 802.3, CMIS, OIF), and reliability sequences (HTOL, thermal cycling)ย
- Build test setups and Python automation; create data analysis pipelines; document procedures and resultsย
Required Qualificationsย
- 5+ years in PCB design and/or hardware validation for high-speed digital/optical systemsย
- Proficiencyย with PCB design tools (Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or equivalent); multi-layer boards with controlled impedanceย
- Hands-on high-speed serial link validation: eye diagrams, BER testing, jitter analysis, S-parametersย
- Proficiencyย with lab instrumentation: real-time oscilloscopes, BERT, optical power meters, VNA, TDRย
- Understanding of transceiver architectures and subsystems (SerDes, TIA, driver, laser, modulator)ย
- Python scripting for test automation; familiarity with I2C, SPI, and serial protocolsย
- BS/MS in Electrical Engineering or equivalentย
Preferred Qualificationsย
- Experience with NRZ optical transceiver validation and silicon characterization across PVT cornersย
- Familiarity with SI/PI simulation tools (HyperLynx, HFSS, ADS); flex-rigid or HDI PCB design experienceย
- Experience with CMIS or similar management interfaces; Ethernet compliance testingย
- Knowledge of reliability testing methodologies (Telcordia, JEDEC) and FEC performance validationย
- Experience in a startup or fast-paced development environmentย
