The Electronics Engineer - 1 will report to VP of Engineering.
About the Role:
Freedom Electronics is seeking a hands-on Electronics Engineer with approximately 2 years of professional experience to support the analysis, troubleshooting, repair, reverse engineering, and improvement of electronic assemblies and circuit boards.
This position is ideal for an early-career engineer who has a strong foundation in electronics and enjoys hands-on problem solving. The engineer will work closely with senior engineers, technicians, production teams, and other cross-functional groups to troubleshoot electronic failures, understand existing circuit designs, develop test methods, support component-level repairs, and assist with the modernization of legacy electronic products.
The role will provide opportunities to develop expertise in PCB reverse engineering, embedded systems, firmware, LCD/LED displays, touchscreen technologies, component-level troubleshooting, and electronic test systems.
Requirements
Key Responsibilities:
• Assist with reverse engineering of electronic assemblies and printed circuit boards, including signal tracing, component identification, schematic reconstruction, testing, and documentation.
• Perform component-level troubleshooting and failure analysis on electronic circuit boards using established diagnostic methods.
• Use oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies, and other laboratory equipment to diagnose electronic and electrical problems.
• Support troubleshooting and integration of LCD/LED displays, touchscreen assemblies, digitizers, and associated electronic interfaces.
• Assist senior engineers with reverse engineering products and assemblies from Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs).
• Support root-cause analysis of failed or intermittent circuit boards and document findings and corrective actions.
• Assist in developing test fixtures, test procedures, and automated or semi-automated test solutions for board-level diagnostics and validation.
• Support redesign and modernization of legacy circuit boards, including identification and evaluation of replacement components for obsolete or discontinued parts.
• Assist with prototype assembly, debugging, testing, and validation of new or redesigned electronic products.
• Develop and modify basic embedded firmware and test software using languages such as C and Python.
• Support microcontroller-based products and assist with debugging hardware and firmware interfaces.
• Work with common communication interfaces and protocols such as UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, USB, and Ethernet.
• Perform soldering, desoldering, component replacement, and PCB rework as required during development and troubleshooting activities.
• Work with Engineering, Production, Quality, Supply Chain, and Repair teams to resolve product and component-related issues.
• Assist in evaluating alternate or replacement electronic components and provide technical input to suppliers and internal sourcing teams.
• Create and maintain technical documentation including schematics, Bills of Materials (BOMs), test procedures, troubleshooting instructions, engineering notes, and repair documentation.
• Support continuous improvement initiatives focused on increasing repair yield, improving product reliability, reducing troubleshooting time, and lowering repair costs.
• Follow engineering standards, documentation practices, safety requirements, and established development processes.
• Participate in design reviews, troubleshooting discussions, and technical training.
• Perform other engineering-related duties and projects as assigned.
• Occasional travel may be required for product evaluation, supplier visits, field testing, or technical support.
Required Qualifications:
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
• Approximately 2 years of professional experience in electronics engineering, circuit-board troubleshooting, product development, electronics repair, embedded systems, or a related field.
• Good understanding of fundamental analog and digital electronics principles.
• Hands-on experience troubleshooting electronic circuit boards and assemblies.
• Experience using laboratory equipment such as oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, logic analyzers, power supplies, and related diagnostic equipment.
• Basic to intermediate programming experience in C and/or Python.
• Familiarity with embedded microcontrollers such as ARM Cortex-M, STM32, ESP32, RP2040, Microchip PIC, or similar platforms.
• Basic understanding of communication protocols such as UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, USB, or Ethernet.
• Ability to read and understand electronic schematics, datasheets, PCB layouts, and technical documentation.
• Hands-on soldering and desoldering skills, including basic PCB component rework.
• Ability to document engineering work clearly and maintain organized technical records.
• Ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a cross-functional engineering and production team.
• Strong willingness to learn new technologies and develop deeper expertise in electronic troubleshooting and reverse engineering.
Preferred Qualifications:
• Experience in a repair, remanufacturing, electronics manufacturing, product-development, or engineering laboratory environment.
• Exposure to PCB reverse engineering or schematic reconstruction.
• Experience troubleshooting embedded electronic products at the component level.
• Familiarity with LCD, LED, touchscreen, or other electronic display technologies.
• Experience with embedded firmware development or debugging.
• Familiarity with PCB design or schematic-capture software like Altium.
• Exposure to automated test equipment or development of electronic test fixtures.
• Experience identifying substitute components for obsolete or discontinued electronic parts.
• Familiarity with version-control and project-management tools such as GitLab, Git, Wrike, or similar systems.
• Strong interest in diagnosing, repairing, and improving legacy electronic products.
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment where quality, turnaround time, reliability, and customer service are important.
