Advanced Hardware Engr

Advanced Hardware Engineer - VE / CE

BRIEF JOB DESCRIPTION

This position provides an exciting opportunity to advance your Engineering career within one of the most dynamic COEs at Honeywell. This Advanced Hardware Engineer is responsible for driving the ideas and projects, keeping in mind the margin expansion for Honeywell products for Building Management Systems. This role is also responsible for identifying product cost savings opportunities through vendor change of used electronic & mechanical components as well through electronic circuit design & mechanical system design changes. (S)he should collaborate with R&D, Sourcing, Manufacturing Engineers, SSE, Strategic Sourcing. Also needs to prepare test plan, perform or coordinate tests of the component and final product in the laboratory, prepare test report – all that to make sure the product after cost reduction works as per specification and with unchanged quality. Implement the change in the mass production factory with the ability to multitask between engineering and non-engineering activities. Good communication and negotiation skills is a must.

Key Responsibilities and Expectations

• Responsible and accountable for all Value & Component engineering projects and their implementation through collaborative effort with Cross-functional teams.
• Review the current electronic board design considering the current technologies in terms of component, materials & process, propose ideations to reduce BoM cost either by redesign / optimization.
• Ability to design/redesign the electronic circuits to reduce the product cost.
• Should be able to drive and participate in Cost reduction Idea generation for existing products & perform or support feasibility review of new ideas assigned.
• Working experience in analog (OPAMPS, BJT, MOSFET etc...) & digital design (Micro controllers, microprocessors, ADC, DAC, memory devices etc.), power supplies, circuit protection techniques, connectors and subsystems
• Study and understand PCB Schematics and Layout Design documents with respect to new component proposals. Experience in Hardware Component Selection process, Application specifications and ability to identify CTQs.
• Mitigate all technical roadblocks and drive implementation of proposed ideations. Ability to predict and quantify design risk in terms existing and new components / proposals.
• Total cost model (TCM) preparation and approval – collecting project data such as cost of engineering services, capital investment, other services etc. and calculate the ROI.
• Test Plan preparation - Component and Product level Qualification
• Circuit Simulation
• Perform the required testing
• Board bring-up
• Module level testing
• Functional testing
• EMI / EMC testing (UL/EN/CE standards)
• Environmental tests
• System Integration Testing

Experience and Education Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical / Electronic Engineering is a must; Masters Degree is an added advantage.
• 5-8 Years of professional experience in Electronics Hardware Design
• Experience in complete Product Development Lifecycle
