Job description

Description:

  • We have an urgent contract opening for an Electrical / PCB Design Engineer centered on enhancing existing designs and working with manufacturing partners to improve Design for Manufacturing (DfM).
  • This role requires assisting with the redesign of existing PCBs.

  • The primary focus is significant Altium schematic and layout work.

  • The engineer will be working with manufacturing partners to establish and improve DfM (Design for Manufacturing).

  • Design scope is primarily standard digital designs with some power delivery and limited integration of RF components.

  • The team offers full support; the role will have oversight by our lead principal engineer.


Job Responsibilities:

  • PCB Redesign & Layout: Execute detailed schematic and layout work primarily using Altium Designer for existing PCBs.
  • DfM Improvement: Work closely with internal teams and manufacturing partners to implement design changes that enhance manufacturability, cost efficiency, and production yield.

  • Design Execution Scope: Focus primarily on standard digital designs. PCB complexity ranges from simple 4-layer boards up to 10-12 layer boards. Includes power delivery circuits and limited RF components (simple routing of antenna traces to connectors).

  • Collaboration & Support: Receive oversight and support from a Lead Principal Engineer, with RF experts available to assist and validate designs.

  • Documentation: Maintain and update comprehensive documentation for all schematic and layout revisions.


Job Qualifications:

  • Experience Level: Proven professional experience in Electrical Engineering and PCB design. Minimum 2 years of highly relevant Altium/PCB layout experience is required (3–5 years is ideal).
  • Altium Mastery: Extensive, recent, hands-on experience with Altium Designer (schematic capture and layout) is mandatory. The company will provide the necessary tools and design library.

  • DfM Expertise: Demonstrated ability to understand and apply Design for Manufacturing (DfM) principles in a production environment.

  • Hardware Foundation: Solid working knowledge of standard digital design principles, power circuits, and signal integrity.

  • Communication: Effective communication skills for collaboration with principal engineers and manufacturing partners.


Preferred Job Qualifications:

  • Familiarity with higher layer count boards (up to 12 layers).
  • Understanding of basic RF principles related to simple antenna trace routing.


Job Details:

  • Job Type: Contract (~2-3 months estimated duration, with potential for extension).

  • Location: Seattle, WA (Hybrid: In-office 3+ days per week preferred. Remote work is possible for exceptional candidates, but this may limit ability to continue beyond the initial contract term, as the long-term goal is to hire full-time in-person staff.)

  • Pay Range: $80–$115/hr.


Benefits Package: Protingent offers competitive salaries, insurance plan options (HDHP plan or POS plan), education/certification reimbursement, pre-tax commuter benefits, Paid Time Off (PTO), and an administered 401k plan.
