Responsible for creating and designing the physical layout of integrated circuits (ICs) or printed circuit boards (PCBs).
Create / lead / verify the layout design by conducting design rule checks (DRC) and design for manufacturability (DFM) checks.
Create / collaborate closely with other design teams, such as circuit designers, system engineers, and packaging engineers, to understand design requirements and constraints.
Select the appropriate technology and process for the layout design based on the project requirements.
Optimize the layout design for various factors by working with SI/PI/EMC/Thermal/Mechanical subject matter experts.
Support ECAD librarians by ensuring development of ECAD library parts meet PCBA Design for Manufacturing (DFM) & GM resiliency requirements.
Collaborate with component engineers, procurement, and supply chain teams to select appropriate components for PCBA design.
Apply Design for Assembly (DFA) principles to ensure PCBA design is optimized for efficient assembly processes.
Identify opportunities for process improvements, cost reduction, and quality enhancement in PCBA manufacturing.
Requirements
