Must-Have Skills:
- Python debugging + Hands-on experience with hardware development and lab-based debugging (e.g., use of oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DMMs, power supplies).
- Experience developing test procedures and documenting results in a structured, reproducible way.
- Experience reading/interpreting schematics and supporting board/system bring-up and validation.
Nice-to-Have Skills:
- Wearable/AR Device Experience
- Meta/Big Tech Experience
Responsibilities:
- Support the design, bring-up, and validation of electronic hardware (e.g., boards, subsystems, modules) from concept through verification.
- Develop and execute test plans; perform bench testing, debug, and root-cause analysis of hardware issues.
- Document designs, requirements, validation results, and engineering changes clearly and accurately.
- Collaborate with cross-functional partners (e.g., electrical, mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, quality) to support program milestones and deliverables.
- Assist with component selection, schematic/layout reviews, and design-for-test/manufacturability considerations as needed.
- Provide regular status updates on assigned deliverables and risks, and support issue tracking and resolution.
Minimum Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field (or equivalent practical experience).
- Hands-on experience with hardware development and lab-based debugging (e.g., use of oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, DMMs, power supplies).
- Experience reading/interpreting schematics and supporting board/system bring-up and validation.
- Experience developing test procedures and documenting results in a structured, reproducible way.
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate across multiple disciplines in a fast-paced environment.
Surrounding Team & Key Projects:
Working on the wearable's AR team with Lab access.
- Design, build, and validate electronic hardware (boards/modules) end-to-end.
