The role

What you'll do

  • Design and develop electronic hardware and PCBs, from requirements capture, schematic definition, and component selection, to the generation and review of the design necessary for manufacturing.
  • Develop electronic architectures and solutions in accordance with the functional, electrical, and interface requirements established for the equipment.
  • Perform circuit analysis, sizing, and simulation, technically justifying the decisions made during the design.
  • Participate in prototype bring-up and hardware integration activities, identifying and resolving issues arising from the design.
  • Execute verification and validation activities, including functional and electrical testing, analysis of results, and proposal of modifications when necessary.
  • Participate in thermal, mechanical, and electromagnetic compatibility analyses related to the behavior of the electronic design.
  • Prepare the necessary technical design and development documentation during the different phases of the project.
  • Collaborate technically with the systems, software/firmware, mechanical, integration, testing, and quality disciplines during product development.

Technical knowledge

  • Solid knowledge and practical experience in analog, digital, mixed-signal, and/or power electronics design, including analysis, simulation, requirements capture, schematic generation, layout, power and signal integrity, and component selection.
  • Proficiency in electronic design and printed circuit board (PCB) development tools, especially Altium Designer, although Mentor Xpedition is also valued, in accordance with the required level of experience.
  • Knowledge of electronic circuit simulation and analysis using SPICE-type tools.
  • Knowledge of the aeronautical electronic hardware development lifecycle, with particular value placed on experience or familiarity with DO-160, DO-254, ARP-4754, and ARP-4761 and associated design processes.
  • Knowledge of traceability, verification, validation, and documentation management tools, such as JAMA, CodeBeamer, DOORS or similar.
  • Knowledge of version management tools based on Git.
  • Knowledge of design oriented towards signal integrity, power integrity, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI), thermal analysis, and electronic design robustness.

Responsibilities

  • Ensure that the designs under their scope meet the assigned technical and functional requirements, maintaining their traceability during development.
  • Guarantee the robustness and technical quality of the designed solutions, justifying component selection and the main design decisions.
  • Maintain the consistency and updating of technical documentation and design evidence associated with the developed hardware.
  • Analyze and resolve technical problems during the prototyping, integration, verification, and validation phases, determining the causes and necessary modifications.
  • Actively participate in technical design reviews, providing judgment on alternatives, risks, and improvements to the electronic solution.
  • Contribute to compliance with the development and assurance processes applicable to aeronautical hardware, especially when the project is subject to requirements derived from DO-254.

Requirements

What we're looking for

  • University degree in Electronic Engineering, Robotics, Automation, Mechatronics, Telecommunications, or equivalent degrees.
  • At least 3 years of professional experience in digital electronics design and hardware development, having participated directly in the full equipment development cycle, from requirements capture to final product acceptance.
  • Demonstrable experience in high-reliability projects for industry (automotive, medical, railway, energy, aeronautics, space), including verification and validation (V&V model in accordance with applicable standards), with the ability to work autonomously on medium-to-high complexity designs.

Nice to have

  • Previous experience in the aeronautical, defense, automotive, or space sectors will be particularly valued, especially in the development of embedded avionics or equipment subject to high stress or severe environmental qualifications.
  • Knowledge of test automation processes, DFT (Design for Test), as well as support during qualification testing in previous projects, will be a plus.
  • Experience in VHDL and FPGA devices will be valued, as well as knowledge of development environments such as Vivado, Libero SoC or equivalents.

Languages

English B2: sufficient technical level to interpret and prepare engineering documentation, specifications, datasheets, and regulations, as well as to participate in professional conversations in international technical environments.
