PCB Design Engineer

Location: Ahmedabad, India

Department: Systems

Experience: 3 - 5 Years

• Interpret circuit schematics and convert them into multilayer PCB layouts using CAD tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD, KiCAD).
• Define PCB stack-up, impedance control, and design for signal integrity and power integrity.
• Collaborate with hardware design engineers to ensure proper component placement, routing, and thermal management.
• Create fabrication and assembly documentation (Gerber, ODB++, pick and place, BOM, etc.).
• Perform DRC (Design Rule Check), ERC (Electrical Rule Check), and DFM/DFT reviews.
• Coordinate with PCB fabricators and assembly vendors to address technical queries and ensure compliance with manufacturing standards.
• Participate in PCB prototyping, bring-up, and debug support during product validation.
• Maintain component libraries and ensure CAD data integrity across projects.
• Work with cross-functional teams (Mechanical, Firmware, Testing) to meet product development timelines.

• Bachelor degree in Electronics / Electrical / Instrumentation Engineering or equivalent.
• 2–4 years of hands-on experience in PCB design and layout for analog, digital, and mixed-signal systems.
• Proficiency in one or more EDA tools.
• Experience with multilayer PCB designs, impedance control, and high-speed signal routing.
• Knowledge of EMI/EMC best practices, thermal management, and design for manufacturability (DFM).
• Strong understanding of IPC standards (IPC-2221, IPC-7351, IPC-A-600/610).
• Familiarity with PCB fabrication and assembly processes.

• Experience with power electronics, automotive, or railway electronics designs.
• Familiarity with simulation tools for SI/PI or thermal analysis.
• Exposure to mechanical design interfaces (e.g., 3D CAD integration, STEP model export).
• Knowledge of relevant compliance standards (UL, CE, ISO, ROHS, etc.).
