Senior Electronics Professional

We seek a seasoned Electronics Development Lead with a passion for innovation, problem-solving, and next-generation product development. This position offers the opportunity to lead complex R&D initiatives while working collaboratively within a fast-paced, multidisciplinary engineering team.

The ideal candidate will bring strong analytical skills, a demonstrated track record in electronic circuit design, prototyping, PCB layout, testing, and system-level troubleshooting. A solid understanding of analog and digital electronics, embedded systems, and design for manufacturability is essential.

This role involves:

• Designing and developing complex analog and digital electronic circuits for high-reliability applications.
• Leading the design and prototyping of ruggedized electronic systems, including IP65/IP68-rated enclosures, with a focus on harsh environments.
• Creating and reviewing PCB layouts and schematics using industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Altium Designer, Eagle, or KiCAD).
• Selecting appropriate electronic components and materials for optimal performance, durability, and cost-efficiency.
• Collaborating closely with mechanical and software engineering teams to ensure seamless system integration.
• Conducting testing, validation, and troubleshooting of electronic assemblies and prototypes.
• Operating lab equipment (e.g., oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies) for circuit debugging and verification.
• Preparing detailed technical documentation for manufacturing, compliance, and assembly processes.
• Contributing to cross-functional design reviews, brainstorming sessions, and the development of innovative electronic solutions for next-generation technology products.

Requirements:

Technical Skills:

• Proficiency in electronic circuit design, analysis, and simulation using tools such as Altium Designer, OrCAD, or KiCAD.
• Strong expertise in PCB layout, schematic capture, and multi-layer board design.
• Solid understanding of IP-rated (IP65, IP68) electronic enclosure requirements and ruggedization techniques.
• Hands-on experience with prototyping, soldering, debugging, and using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.).
• Knowledge of embedded systems, microcontrollers, and power supply design.
• Familiarity with EMI/EMC considerations, signal integrity, and design for reliability.
• Understanding of DFM (Design for Manufacturing) and DFA (Design for Assembly) best practices.
• Proficiency in documentation tools and MS Office for reporting, BOM generation, and design records.

Soft Skills:

• Strong analytical and problem-solving mindset for addressing complex R&D challenges.
• Creativity and innovation in developing advanced electronic solutions for high-performance applications.
• Effective communication and collaboration skills to work seamlessly with cross-functional teams.
• High attention to detail in circuit design, layout, and documentation.
• Ability to manage time efficiently and adapt in a fast-paced, research-intensive environment.

Educational & Other Qualifications:

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field.
• Additional certifications in electronics design, embedded systems, or project management (e.g., IPC CID, PMP, Six Sigma) are a strong plus.
• Prior experience in defence, industrial, or high-reliability electronics product development is highly desirable.
• Minimum of 10-12 years of relevant industry experience, with at least 3–5 years in a leadership or managerial role.
• Proven track record of managing cross-functional engineering teams and delivering complex R&D projects.
