• Review customer specifications and assist with technical proposals on new sensor applications;
• Design and develop micro electrical systems, including circuit layouts, schematics, and PCB (Printed Circuit Board) designs for small-scale sensor applications.
• Perform simulations and modeling of electrical components using tools such as SPICE, LT SPICE, ALTIUM or equivalent software;
• Conduct testing and validation of electrical designs, including functional, stress and environmental testing to ensure performance and durability;
• Perform sensor testing using a variety of pressure, temperature and electronic equipment;
• Calibration and temperature compensation of pressure sensors;
• Hands-on prototyping and testing of new designs to verify operational performance and reliability;
• Create and maintain detailed documentation, including design specifications, test plans; test activities and results; and other technical reports;
• Prepare ATPs, QTPs, QTRs, reliability, maintainability and other documents as needed;
• Participate in internal CCS and external customer design reviews;
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including mechanical engineers, quality engineers, manufacturing and assembly personnel, before new design released for production, to ensure product meets manufacturability and yield rate (>95%) requirements;
• Collaborate with peers, supervisors, and managers to improve efficiency and reduce component costs in development and production;
• Troubleshoot and debug electrical systems at component level, identifying root causes of sensor failures and implementing effective corrective action solutions;
• Stay current with advancements in micro electrical technologies, materials, and testing methodologies to drive continuous improvement in design and productions processes;
• Ensure compliance with industry standards (eg., IPC, IEEE) and safety standards throughout the design and testing phases;
• Interface with external hardware/software resources;
• Work is stated in terms of objectives, requiring project planning and judgment;
• May have overall project responsibility;
• Will act as a lead on most assigned projects and assist lower level engineers and technicians;
