PCB Design Engineer

Develop, and release of technical documentation of PCB/PCBA and components through design reviews and qualification testing. Support PCB/PCBA products through initial manufacturing builds and mass production. Work with third-party partner(s) and internal multi-disciplinary teams comprised of technical experts, program managers, field service and Operations to execute product design details. PCB/PCBA designs shall enable efficient manufacturing and service, and feature reliable performance and robust construction. Apply CAD, CAM and CAE tools for PCB/PCBA design and drawings. Conduct engineering reviews in accordance with Thales development process and lead peer reviews among technical teams to examine and record findings for corrective actions on technical and documentation issues.

Internal customers:

• Hardware Engineering, Product management, Industrial OPS, Purchasing and Procurement

External coordination:

• Development partners, contract manufacturers, suppliers and vendors

• Generate PCB CAD layout design data to meet product requirements. Integrate PCB CAD design data into the Thales configuration document control system (TeamCenter).

• Check completed layouts and drawings to clarify completeness, conformity to standards, procedures, specifications, manufacturability, and accuracy of calculations and dimensions.

• Conduct comprehensive design reviews with engineering teams and manufacturing partners to confirm completion of engineering, cost and manufacturability requirements.
