Electrical Engineer

Responsibilities

• Support component obsolescence efforts — Research and evaluate alternate components and perform qualification and implementation of replacements.
• Draft engineering change documentation — Assist in authoring Engineering Change Orders (ECOs), updating schematics, PCB layouts, wiring diagrams, BOMs, design history files (DHFs), specifications, test procedures, and FMEAs.
• Support manufacturing and production — Support Manufacturing and Test Engineering in troubleshooting PCBA assembly issues, identifying and escalating design-related problems.
• Identify and propose cost reduction and reliability improvements — Research and recommend design optimizations that reduce product cost or improve field reliability for senior review.
• Assist with field issue investigations — Support root cause analysis on product complaints, field failures, and manufacturing defects related to electrical/electronic subsystems under senior engineer guidance.
• Participate in supplier and cross-functional collaboration — Join meetings and contribute to efforts with Supplier Engineering, Quality, Procurement, Manufacturing, Field Service, and Regulatory teams to qualify alternate suppliers and resolve product issues.
• Build product knowledge across legacy designs — Develop a deep understanding of existing product designs, their design intent, and their role in the broader system.
