Senior Electrical Engineer Description
You are also motivated to document and communicate the elements of your designs to fellow teammates. You are interested in contributing to teams from multiple disciplines including: mechanical, electrical, software, and human factors engineers; industrial and human interface designers, usability specialists, and design strategists.
You must be able to work across many different platforms, architectures, and situations. Diverse exposure to processors, analog and digital circuits, and low-power design is extremely important. You must adapt to challenges and be able to search out new technologies and make recommendations on how to apply them.
The primary responsibilities will be developing board-level solutions for embedded systems (including cabling, EMC, and process-driven documentation). Secondary responsibilities include multi-discipline system architecture (electronics, software, and mechanical systems).
