About the Job
Electronic CAD Designer
100% Remote Working EST
Contract 40 hours weekly 6-12+ months
( Active or recent (<1 year)) past security clearance desired
Design moderate to highly complex PWB layouts using inputs from the schematic designers and other members of engineering. Participate in the development of designs for new or modified high-density printed wiring boards. Assist in the design and development of moderately complex and detailed layouts of printed wiring boards (PWBs) implementing a wide range of technologies.
Essential Functions:
* Assist electrical and packaging engineers with the design and layout of printed wiring boards (PWBs).
* Implement moderate to highly complex PWB designs.
* Assist engineers with constraint editing and entry.
* Interpret and understand design requirements.
* Demonstrate proficiency with design tools.
* Collaborate with PWB manufacturing engineers to define fabrication criteria.
* Demonstrate proficiency in the implementation of design techniques such as differential pairs, length matching, impedance control, blind & buried vias, and break out of high density, fine pitch components.
* Follow established processes and work instructions.
* Provide inputs supporting generation of associated documentation.
* Demonstrate working knowledge of industry standard practices for schematic and PWB designs.
* Familiarity with industry standards: IPC-7351, JEDEC-JP95, MIL-STD-1835.
* Work with moderate to minimal oversight from senior technical personnel.
* Identify design issues and bring these issues to the attention of project team.
* Regularly works with multiple senior technical staff members on design projects.
* Accept inputs from multiple members of the project team and acts on them appropriately.
* Communicate project status and issues to management.
* Communicate project status and issues to the project team.
* Efficiently execute a project task and drive a layout project to completion.
Tools:
* Siemens (Mentor) Xpedition Enterprise VX2.12/2.14
* AutoCAD
* Downstream CAM350

Required Qualifications:
* Associates degree or certificate from a two year technical school in an applicable discipline or demonstrated equivalent knowledge and skills.
* 10+ years of experience in the field of PWB design or technical drafting with specific tools knowledge.
* Demonstrated ability to collect, organize and capture design details in a fast paced, dynamic environment
* Demonstrated excellent oral and written communication skills.
* Proven ability to work effectively in a hybrid work environment
Desired Qualifications:
* Experience with bare die techniques such as wire bond, flip chip, and interposer design
* Formal education in electronics or electrical circuit theory is a significant benefit.
* IPC Certification
* Complementary domain knowledge or experience such as PWB assembly, PWB fabrication, hardware assembly, or hardware test
