Summary

The Company: Celestica Valencia S.A.

Celestica is a Canadian company, world leader in the electronic manufacturing sector. The plant in Valencia focuses its activities in the Aerospace, Industrial and Healthcare areas, producing and assembling high complexity products.

The main differentiator in Valencia facilities are its design capabilities and the various engineering services that it can provide to its customers, creating a differential value beyond the regular electronic manufacturing services.

Area/Department: Design and Engineering Services (D&ES)

The Design and Engineering Services department in Celestica Valencia is specialized in the development of new products and electronic systems for both its customers (mostly international) and the production line within the factory.

The D&ES team is composed by more than 20 specialist engineers: electronics, software, mechanics… that, in the end, build a multiskilled team able to carry on (almost) any kind of development projects.

The areas in which these projects are developed are mainly related with healthcare and in-vitro diagnosis, industrial, aerospace and test development.

Name of the position: Electronic Engineer - Power Engineer, Hardware Design

Experience/Background: 5 Years in Electronics Engineering, Industrial Engineering, Telecomm engineering

Detailed Description

As an essential part of a development team, the designer will take responsibility under team-lead supervision for the hardware implementation, build and debug of new products and/or systems. From circuit capture to component/equipment selection and system verification.

Tasks to be performed will be related to electronic circuits design and analysis: specification definition at subsystem and component level, electrical diagrams, component selection, PCB Layout support/development, simulations, measurement and trials, evaluation of different design options, reference designs, and strategies etc.

The designer will also drive the building of the needed prototypes for design verification and the development of the needed tools and documental routines, making use of the adequate laboratory instruments and equipment, to perform verification protocols.

She/He will participate as one of the components of the development team, contributing with her/his point of view and proposing solutions and alternatives aimed to overcome the different challenge that a development project present.
