Senior PCB Designer

About the Role

In this role, you will contribute to the development of high-quality printed circuit board designs that enable reliable and efficient embedded electronic products.

You will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to deliver PCB layouts that meet performance, manufacturability, compliance, and cost objectives.

You will be accountable for end-to-end PCB design activities and ensuring that deliverables align with Schneider Electric's quality and operational-excellence standards.

What Will You Do?


* Partner with Hardware, Firmware, Mechanical, Industrialization, Manufacturing, and Quality teams to define PCB design requirements and ensure alignment with overall product architecture.


* Execute PCB layout activities including component placement, routing, layer stack-up definition, and constraint-driven design using industry-standard EDA tools.


* Apply advanced constraint-management techniques, including differential-pair rules, high-speed timing constraints, impedance-controlled routing, and class-based constraints for complex designs.


* Perform trace-impedance planning and verification, working with vendors on stack-up proposals and impedance coupons to ensure proper SI/PI performance.


* Execute high-frequency routing techniques, including differential pairs, matched-length buses, skew control, and timing-driven routing for high-speed digital interfaces.


* Generate complete and accurate documentation packages, including fabrication files (Gerber/ODB++), assembly drawings, PCB specifications, and IPC-aligned documentation.


* Apply design rules and industry standards (IPC-2221/2222, creepage/clearance requirements, EMC/EMI practices) to ensure electrical performance, safety, and regulatory compliance.


* Collaborate with schematic owners to provide placement guidance, routing recommendations, and feedback on component selection from a layout, manufacturability, and lifecycle perspective.


* Drive DFM, DFA, and DFT improvements through proactive engagement with Industrialization and external manufacturing partners.


* Interface directly with PCB vendors to address stack-up questions, material selection, impedance modeling, manufacturability concerns, and fabrication-related inquiries.


* Participate in formal design reviews, ensuring that all PCB-related risks are identified, communicated, and mitigated.


* Support prototype development and assist with debug activities, including analysis of layout-related issues (signal integrity, power integrity, thermal concerns, or manufacturability problems).


* Perform sustaining-engineering tasks such as redesigning layouts for alternate components, addressing obsolescence, or supporting product-enhancement initiatives.


* Maintain design libraries, adhere to configuration-management practices, and support continuous improvement across PCB design processes and tools.


* Perform additional responsibilities as assigned to...
