Electronics Design Engineer
$150,000–$200,000 year
On-site · Scotts Valley, California, United States
Job Summary
Electronics Design Engineer responsible for architecting and integrating the low voltage electrical system within high-performance power converters to meet reliability, EMC, and safety requirements. You will define cabinet-level electrical architecture, manage harnessing and interconnects, and ensure proper distribution of power, signals, and control across subsystems. The role spans the full hardware development lifecycle—from concept development and component selection to schematic capture, validation, and support through production. Responsibilities include defining LV architecture for cabinet-based systems, selecting LV components, creating system block diagrams and wiring harness documentation, ensuring interface integrity across PCBs, sensors, actuators, and communication buses (CAN, RS-485, Ethernet), collaborating with mechanical and firmware teams on EMI/EMC and enclosure design, supporting prototype/testing and production bring-up, ensuring UL/CE/IEC compliance, and coordinating with cross-functional teams to ensure proper system behavior and serviceability. A degree in Electrical Engineering and 3+ years of relevant LV design experience are required; candidates with mid-to-senior levels of experience are welcome.
Required Qualifications
- Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
- 3+ years of experience in low voltage electrical system design
- Experience with cabinet-level LV power distribution and signal architecture
- Experience selecting and integrating LV components (relays, fuses, terminal blocks, etc.) for multi-voltage systems
- Familiarity with harness design, connector systems, and creating electrical schematics and wiring diagrams
- Understanding of EMC best practices and grounding/shielding techniques
- Proficiency with electrical CAD tools (e.g., Altium)
- Hands-on debugging, testing, and validating electrical systems using oscilloscopes, multimeters
- Experience with manufacturing processes including design for manufacturability and development of manufacturing test procedures
