Senior Electrical Engineer

Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)

Q. What will I build?

You will be responsible for the design of the electronics stack inside the SEM:

• Design mixed signal PCB assemblies for the SEM: precision analog frontends, low-noise drivers, digital control, I/O.
• Design precision current/voltage control circuits for the electron source, lenses, coils with a focus on stability, low drift, and low noise.
• Own signal integrity, grounding, shielding, and EMI/EMC in a very noise, high-voltage, high-vacuum environment.
• Collaborate with chief scientist, electron optics, and mechanical leads to turn system level requirements into the electronics outlay.
• Bring up and debug boards in the lab with a focus on high iteration velocity and hands-on experimentation
• Design for manufacturability, reliability, and safety from the initial prototypes to production.

Q. What experience should I have?

• Degree in Electrical/Electronics engineering (or equivalent) with deep hands-on experience in board-level design.
• Strong foundation in analog, mixed signal and power electronics design.
• Solid experience with one or more PCB and circuit simulation tools.
• Comfort working around high-voltage/high-current systems with a focus on isolation, and safety (even if you haven't designed full PSUs yourself).
• Proven track record of taking boards from concept to fabrication to iteration.

• Nice to have

  : Experience with scientific instruments, semiconductor tools, medical devices or precision instruments. Familiarity with FPGA/MCU-based control and high-speed digital interfaces.

Why You should Join 🫵

You'll architect the electronics for a flagship instrument from the ground up. Your work will directly define the performance of a world-class SEM made in India. You'll have high level of ownership in a mission-driven team where your decision will directly shape our cleanroom design, equipment purchases, and the the future of the product and the company.
