Key Responsibilities:
  • Design and develop PCB layouts for the palm vein scanner, focusing on high-resolution imaging and secure data handling.
  • Create detailed PCB schematics and work with electrical engineers to define component placement, routing, and signal integrity.
  • Implement and validate security features in PCB design, including secure boot mechanisms, encryption, and anti-tamper protections.
  • Conduct signal integrity and thermal analysis to ensure PCB designs meet performance requirements and maintain reliability under operational conditions.
  • Generate and maintain PCB design documentation, including schematics, layout files, assembly drawings, and testing procedures.
  • Coordinate with fabrication and assembly partners to ensure PCBs are manufactured and assembled according to design specifications and security standards.
  • Troubleshoot and resolve design issues during prototype development and production, including analysis of failure modes and design adjustments.
Requirements:
  • 5+ years of experience in PCB design and layout, with a focus on high-resolution imaging systems and secure designs.
  • Proficiency with PCB design tools such as Autodesk Eagle, Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, or similar.
  • Strong understanding of electronic components, circuit design, and signal integrity principles relevant to imaging and sensor applications.
  • Experience with Design for Manufacturing (DFM) and Design for Test (DFT) principles to ensure design quality and testability.
  • Familiarity with PCB fabrication processes and assembly techniques, including considerations for secure and precise sensor integration.
  • Ability to perform thermal and electrical analysis to optimize PCB performance in biometric systems.
  • Experience with Gerber file generation and working with PCB manufacturing and assembly vendors.
  • Detail-oriented with strong problem-solving skills to address and resolve design challenges effectively.
Nice to Have:
  • Experience with flexible or rigid-flex PCB design for compact or integrated systems.
  • Knowledge of RF PCB design and EMI/EMC considerations relevant to sensor systems.
  • Familiarity with mechanical CAD tools (e.g., SolidWorks) for integration with device enclosures.
  • Experience in automated design tools for signal integrity and thermal analysis.
  • Understanding of biometric systems and their specific PCB design requirements.
