Description

Senior Hardware Engineer required for a 6 month initial contract, responsible for complex design and development tasks and hardware engineering of high grade cryptographic equipment.

Experience:

  • Competent with schematic capture and understands how to constrain layout using rules/classes/groups.
  • Understands best practice in probing techniques and pragmatically applies the correct probing dependent on required accuracy of measurement.
  • Operational amplifier design and selection.
  • Can optimise complicated circuits to achieve power reduction.
  • Competent in power supply design and familiar with most topologies.
  • Can analyse performance across process, voltage and temperature variations.
  • Understands signal integrity problems and can select appropriate terminations.
  • Understands power distribution networks and strategies to efficiently and effectively mitigate.
  • Can devise HW architecture to meet requirements using appropriate technology to meet cost targets.
  • Uses advanced SPICE techniques to ensure circuits are modelled against variable parameters.
  • Determines verification test requirements and devises appropriate test plans.
  • Understands best practice design for EMC and TEMPEST and can resolve seemingly conflicting requirements based on electromagnetic theory.
  • Understands EMC and TEMPEST test techniques and methods and can design suitable test harnesses.
  • Can optimise PCB stack-up design.
  • Understands electronic assembly failure modes and investigatory techniques.
  • Designs to ensure high yield and reliable solder joints.

Qualifications:

  • Degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering or equivalent.
  • Experience in Hardware Engineering or equivalent engineering discipline.
