Layout Engineer
Job Description To pursue our ambitious vision, we are looking for a Layout Engineer. In this role, you will turn power electronics designs into flight-ready PCBs — owning the layout from component placement to fabrication outputs. Your Mission Will Be To Design power PCBs: high-current layout, heavy copper, busbars, creepage/clearance, and EMC-driven layout practices. Lay out mixed-signal boards: gate drive circuits, analog sensing chains, and MCU/digital sections with clean grounding and partitioning. Own the layout flow: library and footprint management, stackup definition, design rules, and fabrication outputs (Gerbers, drawings, assembly data). Work with PCB manufacturers and assemblers: DFM/DFA reviews, and support during fabrication and assembly. Support prototype bring-up and EMC testing, feeding lessons learned back into layout practices. Requirements Professional engineering education (MSc or equivalent) in electrical engineering or equivalent experience, with 5+ years of hands-on PCB layout experience across power and mixed-signal boards. Proficiency in KiCad, or solid experience with Altium/other tools and a willingness to learn. Understanding of power electronics layout constraints: switching loops, parasitics, thermal management, creepage/clearance. Knowledge of EMC-driven layout: grounding strategies, return paths, filter placement, shielding. Knowledge with PCB fabrication and assembly processes: stackups, heavy copper, via technologies. Strong analytical skills, a proactive attitude, excellent interpersonal skills and unbounded curiosity. You enjoy owning your scope end-to-end. Professional level English — further languages welcome. Nice To Have Experience in space, aerospace, energy sector, downhole equipment, oceanographic, or other high-reliability industries. Experience with high-voltage or high-current board design. Familiarity with thermal simulation or signal/power integrity analysis. Schematic capture experience and good circuit-level understanding.
