Analog Hardware Engineer

Job Role and Responsibilities

1.Support the design and development of analog and mixed-signal circuits including signal conditioning, sensor interfaces, and power supply circuits for defence/aerospace applications.

2. Perform circuit simulation using: LTspice and PSpice.

3. Assist in schematic capture, PCB layout review, and component selection for analog sub systems.

4. Implement and verify filtering techniques, isolation circuits, and protection networks to ensure circuit performance and reliability.

5. Assist in EMI/EMC compliance testing and contribute to designing circuits that meet applicable standards (MIL-STD-461, DO-160).

6. Support design validation and testing activities including bench testing, functional verification, and environmental screening.

7. Prepare and maintain hardware documentation including design notes, test reports, and BOM (Bill of Materials).

8. Collaborate with senior engineers, firmware, PCB layout, and QA teams throughout the product development lifecycle.

9. Participate in troubleshooting and root cause analysis of analog hardware issues.

10. Optimize analog circuits for precision signal acquisition, conditioning, and reliable performance under stringent aerospace and defence requirements.

11. Provide technical support in bid responses, proposal creation, and customer presentations with emphasis on compliance, performance, and reliability.
