Contract Hardware Engineer Mid.

Duties: Location (Cedar Rapids, IA and Richardson TX) Note: Due to the nature of the project, we will only need a US Citizen for this role. We are seeking a Hardware Engineer with Hi-speed circuit design (around FPGA, hi-speed data bus) experience. What You'll Be Doing: Work experience of 8+ years is required for this role Design and implement high-reliability electronic systems, including PCBs, embedded systems, and power electronics. Lead and perform all aspects of circuit card design lifecycle activities, including requirements capture, schematic capture, component selection, signal integrity analysis, simulations, timing analysis and thermal analysis. Generate PCB layout constraint guidelines, routing instructions, creation of board stackup and oversee the routing, layout, fabrication, and assembly of complex designs. Creation of test plans, root cause analysis, and testing of electronic circuits and systems. Troubleshoot and resolve hardware-related issues during development and testing phases What We Are Looking For: Design circuit cards using FPGA, processor, and DDR memory components, as well as industry interfaces such as Ethernet, PCIe, I2C, USB, LVDS, and SERDES bus technologies Work collaboratively with team members and independently on assigned tasks. Utilize schematic capture tools for the creation of circuit card designs, such as Siemens Mentor Graphics DxDesigner and/or Xpedition, Altium, Cadence Allegro, EAGLE, KiCAD, etc. Familiarity with Agile for Hardware Development, including planning, tracking, and managing hardware development projects in JIRA. Compliance with industry standards and regulations, including DO-254 and DO-178C is a plus. Knowledge of the latest technology trends in high-speed digital design (up to 40GHz), as well as microprocessor, memory, FPGA, and interface protocols. Proficiency in Microsoft Office applications including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
