Remote Principal NA Automotive Aerospace Electrical Engineer Principal Verilog

Requirements

• Experience: 7+ years in hands-on hardware development, with end-to-end ownership of systems that shipped at scale. • Execution: Demonstrated ability to deliver high-reliability designs under tight constraints on power, cost, form factor, and schedule. • Technical Strengths: • Deep expertise in low-noise analog and high-speed digital design. • Strong grounding in signal/power integrity, high-density interconnect, and EMI mitigation techniques. • Familiarity with high-volume design-for-manufacturing (DFM), reliability testing, and yield optimization. • Proficient in schematic capture and simulation (e.g., SPICE), with working knowledge of Altium or similar. • Experience with SI/PI simulation tools (e.g., HyperLynx, SiWave) and measurement tools (GHz-range scopes, VNAs, spectrum analyzers). • Familiarity with board-level integration of FPGAs, microcontrollers, and custom analog ASICs. • Experience with high-speed ADCs, custom analog IC interfaces, or photonics-related electronics. • Knowledge of flex and rigid-flex PCB design. • Familiarity with Verilog-AMS or mixed-signal modeling. • Exposure to Verilog HDL or FPGA development. • Experience designing for high-reliability or harsh environments (e.g., automotive, aerospace).

Responsibilities

• Architect and develop analog and mixed-signal electronics for compact, high-performance hardware modules, using TIAs, ADCs, precision current sources, and power supplies like LDOs and switching regulators. • Own designs from concept through production, including schematic capture, component selection, and PCB layout in collaboration with layout engineers. • Ensure signal integrity, power integrity, and EMI/EMC compliance across high-speed and noise-sensitive interfaces. • Define and execute bring-up, characterization, and validation plans (e.g., DVT, EVT), with a focus on robustness, repeatability, and manufacturability. • Analyze design trade-offs (performance, cost, power, integration complexity) in the context of tightly constrained product architectures. • Partner closely with system architects, mechanical engineers, and firmware teams to ensure seamless integration and system-level reliability.

Benefits

• Competitive base salary and a meaningful equity package. • Comprehensive health benefits (Medical, Dental, Vision). • Unlimited PTO and paid company holidays. • Team events and company meetups.
