PCB Layout Engineer, Robotics

What you'll do

• Own PCB layout, component placement, routing, and fabrication release; prepare fabrication and assembly documentation.
• Apply high-speed, SI/PI, power, grounding, EMI/EMC, thermal, and mechanical-integration requirements; refine layouts based on simulation.
• Work with fabricators and assembly partners on stack-ups, design reviews, failure analysis, and reusable layout workflows and component-library assets.

What they ask for

• 6+ years of experience designing complex, multilayer PCBs.
• Fluency in Cadence Allegro PCB Designer and Constraint Manager.
• Strong HDI design experience, including fine-pitch BGAs, microvias, blind and buried vias, via-in-pad, and sequential lamination.
• Understanding of signal and power integrity fundamentals, and experience working with PCB fabricators on stack-ups, manufacturing constraints, and DFM.

Nice to have

• Experience with rigid-flex or other mechanically constrained designs; high-speed interfaces such as PCIe, DDR, USB, Ethernet, or MIPI.
• Familiarity with SI/PI simulation tools such as Cadence Sigrity or Ansys SIwave, IPC standards, Cadence SKILL scripting, or layout automation.
