Hardware Engineer - Multiple Teams

Every year, we hire and mentor recently graduated engineers. Our Hardware Team is seeking Hardware (Circuits, RF, FPGA, ASIC, Mechanical) Engineers interested in board-level circuit design and/or digital logic design.

Our board-level hardware engineers are experts in RF, analog, and digital design. They design and build circuit cards for production-ready, small form factor radios and for prototyping platforms for research and development. They spend time designing the cards, bringing them up in the lab, and working with the team to integrate them into the larger system.

Digital designers write VHDL for FPGAs and ASICs. They implement modem physical layers and are knowledgeable in communication theory and radio architecture. A typical day could involve designing and documenting a new filter or modulator, testing a new waveform in the screen room, and working with the software team to integrate with networking layers.

Mechanical Designers work closely with the circuit designers to integrate their designs into products that will function reliably in the harshest environments. The team uses digital modeling tools, rapid prototyping, lab and field testing to validate the performance and robustness of each design while working closely with manufacturing to ensure a seamless transfer from design to production.

Enhancing cohesiveness and maintaining team morale is a responsibility of all our team members, as is the ambition for self-improvement and talent development. Through this dedication to unity and professional advancement, each team member is directly impacting the successful outcome of TrellisWare's deliverables and setting the tone for our core values of delivering excellence, pushing boundaries, and empowering people.
