Job Summary
The successful candidate will operate as a member of the Corporate Engineering unit, PWB CAD department, and will be able to provide PWB design solutions for a variety of design types. For example: Product Test Engineering (PTE) designs - (UFLEX/IFLEX Probe cards, 93K DIB, Bench boards and Daughter Cards, Socketed and Solder down, HTOL, etc.) with multiple DUT sites up to 32X. Emulator designs - large/high density digital designs having high layer counts (24-34 layers) and containing several FPGAs (>1500 pins) along with very high-speed digital signals. Reference handset designs - 'form factor accurate' (FFA) circuit boards. These boards require mastery in digital processors, RF and radio circuits as well as power control devices. Experience with micro-vias (stacked), sequential lamination stack-ups and design rules using .5mm pitch and smaller packages. Leadership skills are expected on all projects to help direct, capture and interface with outside consultants.
Responsibilities - The tasks include daily use of PWB CAD design software to perform placement and routing activities to meet mechanical and electrical design constraints and requirements.
- Exchange of electronic file transfers to/from mechanical and electrical engineers to ensure compliance to fit, form and function as well as power and signal integrity requirements.
- Creating fabrication and assembly drawings and working with internal teams and external suppliers to support PWB fabrication and assembly.
- The candidate will interface with internal staff and outside partners in the fast-paced execution of a variety of multi-disciplined projects.
- Leadership skills are expected on all projects to help direct, capture and interface with outside consultants.
- Proficiency on Mentor Xpedition, Mentor PADS and Cadence Allegro PWB design software is expected and experience in developing PWB design solutions for a variety of design types and working with internal teams and external suppliers to support PWB fabrication and assembly.
- Maintain technical coordination with Engineering and Manufacturing. Resolve PWB design issues with fabrication and assembly vendors.
- Participate and provide input into process improvement, PWB and DFM checklists and guidelines.
- Participates in determining objectives of assignment and plans, schedules and arranges own activities in accomplishing objectives.
- Experience working with on-board EMI shielding cans.
- Experience with IDF/EMN file exchange between mechanical and HW teams.
- Understands project goals and individual contribution toward those goals.
- Effectively communicates with project peers and engineering personnel via e-mail, web meetings, and instant messaging including status reports and illustrative presentation slides.
