R&D Hardware Engineer

Job Description The main responsibilities are: Inside the New Product Development process or for existing product maintenance purposes, Design part of system with medium/high complexity, in particular: Design HW subsystems according to the technical specifications available, following specific guidelines and processes (selecting suitable commercial components and custom I Cs, sizing their parameters properly, leveraging simulation tools, prototyping the circuits or using evaluation boards, etc. ) and then measuring the behavior to refine the initial design.
Define a verification plan for HW subsystems, planning also the requirements related to FW or SW necessary to perform the test.
Verify the behavior of the designed subsystem against temperature, humidity, environmental stresses, etc. ; verify EMC, following the specification and the product regulatory.
Consolidate collected data, verify the compliance with the specification and report the achieved results during the technical review.
Execute schematic entry using Company tools, and launch standard control tools; check the resulting Bill of Material.
Manage the release of the HW according to the Company procedures.
Share adopted design criteria and discuss them during Design reviews.
In the different stages of the development of a New Product (engineering sample, Alpha, Beta, Pilot), execute all the tests listed in the Validation test suite, following the internal procedures and reporting the results QualificationsEDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE Master Degree in Electronic Engineering (MA Degree) 5+ years of experience in Analog Hardware Design KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS Languages: Italian and English Knowledge in using electrical CAD and simulation tools for HW design ( Siemens Mentor Expedition preferred); Practical and theoretical knowledge of Analog circuit development, in particular amplifier design, stability theory, small signal and noise analysis.
Good knowledge in Digital Hardware development to interface analog front end systems with microcontrollers or FPGA units.
Good command of Analog parts and components selection to develop systems that satisfy specifications.
Good knowledge in power supply topology and development, to achieve best performances in efficiency and miniaturization.
Basic knowledge of programming technique (C or other embedded level languages) mainly to perform HW verification.
Practical experience with laboratory instrumentation for PCB board and Product testing.
Practical experience in EMC Troubleshooting; good capability to fix the problems with efficiency and rapidity.
Enthusiasm and interest in facing new topics and technical challenges.
