Requirements

Proven experience designing hardware for edge-computing platforms using ARM-based system-on-chips or high-performance microcontrollers, with a strong grasp of high-speed signal integrity.
At least 3 years of experience developing and mass-producing smart-building, industrial-automation, or Internet of Things devices, such as building gateways, IoT hubs, or smart sensors.
Familiarity with hardware design requirements for systems running a real-time operating system or Linux.
Proficiency in OrCad Capture CIS, Power PCB, and Allegro.
Deep understanding of electronic components, including resistors, inductors, capacitors, MOSFETs, BJTs, logic integrated circuits, and sensors, and of battery applications such as rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.
Strong knowledge of ESD, EMI, surge protection, and Hi-Pot testing standards.
Hands-on experience using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers for hardware debugging.
Understanding of thermal solutions and heat-dissipation design.
Expert knowledge of hardware design and debugging for industrial communication interfaces, including DALI, RS-485 (Modbus), CAN bus, UART, and Ethernet.

Responsibilities

Lead schematic design and printed circuit board layout review for IoT Gateway products, ensuring system stability and optimized communication performance for smart-building applications.
Design precision sensing circuitry for CT Sensors (50A/200A) and CT Modules, focusing on low-level signal acquisition, noise filtering, and high-resolution analog-to-digital conversion.
Develop and integrate DALI Modules and industrial/building communication protocols, including Modbus and CAN, for interoperability in automation control systems.
Optimize ARM-based system-on-chip and microcontroller hardware architectures to balance edge-computing performance, power efficiency, and thermal management.
Create comprehensive test plans, execute validation tests for signal quality and functional capability, and document results.
Conduct product teardowns and competitive analyses to assess industry trends.

Desired Qualifications

Willingness to learn and adapt to different development platforms and architectures.
Experience leading technical projects or mentoring junior engineers.
Familiarity with basic network configuration.
Familiarity with time-domain reflectometry and network analyzers.
