  • Proven experience leading the development of complex products from conception through design, development, and volume manufacturing.
  • Expertise in circuit and board design, including analog circuits, digital logic, high-speed signals, filtering, high-voltage circuits, component selection, electrical schematics, and PCB layout.
  • Proficiency with electrical simulation and design tools such as MATLAB and SPICE.
  • Skilled in troubleshooting control systems, PCBAs, and electrical system issues.
  • Experience with motors, servo drivers, sensors, communication protocols (EtherCAT, CANBUS, etc.), robot arms, and controllers.
  • Proficiency in power electronics design (motor drives, SMPS, inverters) and battery-powered systems design.
  • Experience collaborating with off-shore subcontractors, vendors, and global contract manufacturers.
  • Familiarity with lab test instruments such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, DC loads, power supplies, and spectrum analyzers.
  • Experience with hardware product certification processes, best design practices for compliance, and standards (FCC, NFPA 79, UL, CE, IEC).
  • Experience with PLM systems (Arena, Agile, Teamcenter) for daily development lifecycle management.
  • Strong communication and technical skills, with the ability to lead and direct the electrical system development efforts autonomously.
  • Capable of managing multiple projects and working with global engineering teams with great attention to detail.
