Description
In this highly collaborative and impactful role, you will lead the electrical architecture for next-generation input technologies. Input devices sit at the complex intersection of electrical, mechanical, and firmware/software engineering. You will not just be designing circuits. You will be defining the system. Based on design goals, you will propose innovative architectural concepts, drive new technology investigations, and partner with mechanical engineers and firmware engineers to continuously iterate, co-design, and optimize hardware.
Minimum Qualifications
BS/MS in Electrical Engineering, or related field with 7+ years of experience in hardware system design or electrical architecture. Strong EE fundamentals (E&M physics, first principles) with a deep understanding of system architecture and design tradeoffs. Experience in schematic capture and component selection across diverse domains (power, digital, analog, high-speed, wireless). Deep knowledge of low-speed and high-speed digital interfaces (e.g., I2C, I2S, SPI, USB, MIPI, PCIe, Thunderbolt). Experience with highly constrained multilayer PCBs (HDI, fine-pitch BGA) and rigid-flex designs (Allegro preferred). Hands-on proficiency with advanced lab tools (high-bandwidth oscilloscopes, VNAs, BERT) for bring-up, validation, and protocol decode. Proven track record of taking complex systems from concept to mass production, collaborating tightly with FW, SW, and ME teams.
Preferred Qualifications
Sensing Expertise: High-precision AFE design for weak signals (capacitive touch, strain gauges, piezo). Haptics & Actuation: Drive circuitry for LRA/Piezo/VCM, H-bridge design, and closed-loop resonance tracking. Power Architecture: Designing ultra-low noise power for sensitive analog circuits while managing massive transient currents from actuators. ME/EE Co-Design: Familiarity with mechanical resonance, damping and key requirements for capacitive/inductive-based sensing. SI/PI/EMC: Resolving severe signal/power integrity and ESD/EMI challenges in constrained, user-facing environments.
