Job Duties



* Design, develop, characterize, optimize, validate, release, launch and maintain eCAD data for PCBs.


* Ensure that schematics, PCB layouts, and manufacturing data comply with Flex-N-Gate standards, electrical performance, reliability, and manufacturability requirements.


* Ensure end-to-end traceability of layouts to requirements using requirements management tools (e.g., Altium, Polarion ALM, DOORS, Jama).


* Collaborate with multiple eCAD, CAD and manufacturing engineers globally to create products that meet customers' requirements.


* Maintain libraries of components, schematics, layouts, symbols, footprints, part attributes and documentation.


* Develop PCB stack‑ups, routing strategies, impedance control, and constraints


* Generate manufacturing and assembly outputs (Gerbers, ODB++, pick‑and‑place, BOMs)


* Manage PCB projects and report to program managers.


* Provide Electronic support to manufacturing plants and the product engineering teams.


* Comply with Flex-N-Gate and industry processes such as ASPICE, APQP Functional Safety (ISO 26262) and Cybersecurity.


* Communicate and interface with OEM and suppliers.


* Review OEM specifications and integrate customer requirements into eCAD.


* Support system verification and validation planning (DVP&R), DFMEA contributions, and compliance reviews.


* Provide technical support during development, launch, and production for issues related to electronic system behavior, requirements interpretation, and change management.


* Maintain knowledge of automotive electronics technologies, communication protocols (CAN, CAN FD, LIN, hardwire I/O), and regulatory requirements.


* Create and present technical information to other engineers and OEM customers through design reviews, technical discussions, and formal documentation.

Required


* Bachelor’s degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.


* Experience with eCAD in automotive electronics or similar complex systems.


* Working knowledge of ASPICE system development processes and experience applying them to real projects.


* Familiarity with ISO 26262...
