Train, coach, and mentor other engineers in design analysis, tools, and best practices to build team capability.
Coordinate with professional networks to address unique issues related to industry-specific regulatory and safety standards.
Lead electrical engineering projects with multiple engineers, ensuring alignment with project milestones and technical objectives.
Lead cross-functional and electrical engineering design reviews to ensure robust designs and adherence to standards.
Assess projects, identify and articulate technical risks, and support the development of project milestones within a stage-gate process.
Develop projects using a structured product lifecycle or stage-gate process (PLCQ), ensuring disciplined execution from concept to production.
Perform other related duties and responsibilities as assigned to support engineering and organizational goals.

Extensive experience in embedded hardware design, with at least 12 years of relevant industry experience or equivalent key competency.
Proven ability to lead and advise embedded hardware design and validation for complex and unique product applications.
Strong expertise in PCB design and layout, including the use of standard PCB design tools.
Broad knowledge of high-complexity electrical engineering projects requiring multiple design specializations such as power supply theory, digital theory, analog theory, and RF design.
In-depth knowledge and practical use of key development tools and design standards, including component derating, DFMEA, oscilloscopes, multimeters, and simulation tools.
Demonstrated ability to define and analyze system architectures and clarify technical requirements for design teams.
Strong communication skills with a solid command of English, including the ability to explain complex technical topics to customers and internal stakeholders.
Ability to influence others and share best practices across teams and projects.
Experience working effectively as part of a global engineering team.
Proven capability to assess project risks, articulate them clearly, and support the development of realistic project milestones.
Experience leading electrical engineering projects involving multiple engineers and cross-functional teams.
Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional and electrical engineering design reviews.
Experience mentoring and developing less experienced engineers.
Electrical Engineering degree (BSEE, MSEE, PhD) or equivalent education and experience.
