Automotive Electronics Hardware Design Engineer

Quick Facts

Automotive Electronics Hardware Design Engineer

Description

Design and validate analog, digital, and mixed-signal automotive electronic modules—from schematic and circuit simulation through component selection and electrical validation. Perform worst-case analysis, EMC/EMI validation and troubleshooting, and thermal/reliability margin evaluations. Translate OEM electrical requirements into hardware specifications, validation criteria, and engineering deliverables.

Responsibilities

• Develop schematics and perform circuit simulation for automotive analog/digital/mixed-signal hardware
• Select components and validate circuits across supply voltage, temperature, and tolerances (WCCA)
• Apply and troubleshoot automotive EMC/EMI considerations and electrical transients/immunity
• Perform thermal analysis and power dissipation/reliability and design-margin evaluations
• Plan and support hardware design validation, test activities, and failure investigations
• Use DFMEA and DVP&R to support verification and validation documentation
• Prepare and review engineering deliverables (schematics, calculations, component specs, analysis and validation reports)
• Coordinate technical design issues with OEM teams, suppliers, and cross-functional stakeholders

Requirements

• BSEE with ~10 years relevant experience OR MSEE with ~5 years relevant experience
• Hands-on analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit design for automotive electronic modules (schematic development, simulation, component selection)
• Experience performing worst-case circuit analysis (WCCA) across operating conditions (supply voltage, temperature, tolerances)
• Knowledge of automotive EMC/EMI design and electrical transients/immunity; experience with EMC troubleshooting or validation
• Experience with circuit thermal analysis, power dissipation assessment, and reliability/design-margin evaluations
• Experience with hardware design validation, test planning, and failure investigation; working knowledge of DFMEA and DVP&R
• Ability to interpret OEM electrical requirements and translate them into hardware specifications, design solutions, and validation criteria
• Ability to prepare and review engineering deliverables including schematics, calculations, component specs, analysis reports, and validation documentation
• Ability to coordinate technical design issues with OEM engineering teams, suppliers, and cross-functional stakeholders
• Prior experience in automotive electronic product development (preferably OEM or Tier-1/Tier-2)
