We are
seeking a competent and enthusiastic Senior Hardware Design Engineer
with expertise in Altium Designer and a strong background in hardware
design and testing for power systems and renewable energy domains.
Role Overview:
As
a Senior Hardware Design Engineer, you will play a critical role in
designing, executing, and supporting product development for both
low-voltage and high-voltage applications. You will work in a dynamic
environment, collaborating across teams to drive innovation,
reliability, and performance in our products.
The ideal candidate
is highly motivated, detail-oriented, and solution-driven, with a
relentless focus on delivering high-quality, on-time results. This role
requires someone who does not limit themselves by defined
responsibilities but instead takes ownership to ensure the success of
the product.
Key Responsibilities:
- Design and
develop analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuits, including motor
control systems, power supplies, and embedded hardware
- Create circuit schematics, perform simulations (PSPICE, LTSPICE), and oversee PCB layouts
- Optimize hardware designs for manufacturability, reliability, and regulatory compliance.
- Perform
detailed component selection, including resistors, capacitors, diodes,
transistors, MOSFETs, IGBTs, gate drivers, and overcurrent/overvoltage
protection circuits.
- Ensure compliance with EMI/EMC regulations, troubleshoot and resolve electromagnetic interference issues.
- Conduct detailed electrical analysis, calculating currents and voltages across all circuit components.
- Prepare engineering documentation, including hardware design documents, test plans, and validation reports.
- Research and implement emerging technologies to drive innovation in power electronics and embedded hardware.
- Evaluate and recommend cost-effective, scalable technological alternatives for future product development.
- Apply thermal management techniques and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) best practices in hardware design.
- Ensure strict adherence to safety standards and regulatory requirements throughout the development lifecycle.
- Demonstrate expertise in ISO 26262 functional safety standards, specifically ASIL C/ASIL D-compliant designs.
- Collaborate
closely with cross-functional teams, including firmware, software, and
system engineering, to ensure seamless product integration.
Qualifications & Skills:
- BE/ B.Tech OR ME / MTech / MS in Electonics / Electrical / Instrumentation / Robotics, etc.
- 5+ years of hands-on experience in electronic hardware design and testing.
- Strong expertise in Altium Designer for schematic capture, PCB layout, and design reviews.
- In-depth knowledge of power electronics, communication protocols and controllers.
- Experience in EMI/EMC compliance, thermal management, and functional safety (ISO 26262 ASIL C/D).
- Proficiency in circuit simulation tools (PSPICE, LTSPICE) and hardware debugging techniques.
- Ability to analyze and optimize PCB layouts for signal integrity, power efficiency, and thermal performance.
- Strong problem-solving skills with the ability to troubleshoot hardware issues at both component and system levels.
- Passion for electric mobility and automotive innovation, with a proactive and ownership-driven mindset
