  • Produce and maintain documentation including schematics, test plans, and validation reports.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders across quality, procurement, manufacturing, and engineering teams.
  • Provide technical support for existing product ranges and contribute to new product introduction (NPI).
  • Participate in design reviews, risk assessments (e.g., FMEA), and continuous improvement initiatives.
  • Lead technical problem-solving, mentor peers, and contribute to innovation roadmaps.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical/Electronic Engineering or a related field, with 3+ years of relevant experience.
  • Proven experience in product/system design through full lifecycle, ideally in an industrial environment.
  • Hands-on experience in PLC programming and developing control logic for hardware-based systems.
  • Proficient in embedded systems, microcontroller integration, and schematic/PCB layout (Altium preferred).
  • Solid understanding of regulatory standards (e.g., IEC, UL, CE, EMC/EMI), cabling standards, and safety compliance.
  • Familiarity with simulation tools (e.g., SPICE) and use of lab instrumentation for test and debug activities.
