Sr Principal Hardware Design Lead Engineer

Job Purpose:

The Senior / Principal Hardware Design Engineer, as part of the larger product development team, provides multi-disciplinary engineering oversight of integrated designs including electronics, software, mechanical, reliability, RF & optical design for discrete and microelectronic scale devices. Individual contributor tasks include hands-on simulation, design and verification of advanced mixed-signal electronics for various optical & RF, analog to high-speed applications. Our Dallas Design Engineering team is the center for integrating the various advanced technologies AMT builds from the larger product development, NPI & manufacturing teams.

Nature of Duties:

Ideal candidates will have a broadtechnical background and thrive in a fast-paced high-tech development environment.Development product outputs may range from technology proof-of-concept and evaluation prototypes to production-ready, high-volume products.

Individual responsibilitieswillinclude overseeingspecification & requirementsdocumentation, concept-to-detailed design, multi-disciplinary engineering design reviews, component selection, oversight of board layout and prototyping, with product bring-up testing, DVT (verification). Additionally we expect principal engineers to lead technical client meetings andhelp preparestatements of work, and lead the multi-disciplinary development effort from cradle to design release.

Client markets include communications, photonics, quantum technologies, medical sensing, automotive, transportation, commercial, and energy sectors.Knowledge of how components, materials, and manufacturing processes affect aproduct'sperformance is necessary.Familiarity with high-speed comms designand manufacturingis highly desirable.

Education and Experience

Candidates must have a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or relevant experience with 12 years design experience. Areas of experience should include:
