Electrical Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a small engineering team developing terahertz imaging technology for security applications. In this hands-on role, you will own mixed-signal board bring-up, debugging, and integration, working closely with systems, FPGA, firmware, and mechanical teams.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead board-level bring-up, power sequencing validation, and subsystem integration across multiple board designs.
• Diagnose signal integrity, power, and RF performance issues, then drive design iterations to resolve them.
• Coordinate schematic updates and layout reviews with an external design firm, from fabrication through characterization and validation.
• Collaborate with FPGA, firmware, and systems engineers to validate subsystem and system integration.
• Develop traceability and test procedures to support increased production volume.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Bachelor's or master's degree in electrical engineering and 3 to 7 years of experience in mixed-signal hardware bring-up, debugging, and board-level integration.
• End-to-end PCB design experience, including schematics and layout in Altium, controlled-impedance routing, and power protection circuits.
• Experience with ADCs and DACs, DC/DC converters, RF interfaces, power sequencing, signal integrity, and mixed-signal validation.
• Ability to independently identify and solve technical problems, and to work across disciplines.
• Background in telecom, radar, or complex sensing systems is helpful. FPGA bring-up experience, including PetaLinux or AMD Kria SOM, is also useful.
• Must be authorized to work in the United States without visa sponsorship.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Base salary: $160,000 to $180,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.

LOCATION

On-site in Santa Clara, California, five days per week.
