Role Overview:

You will play a critical role in the design, simulation, and testing of electronic circuits for various automotive projects. The role is remote during the design and initial testing phase, with occasional on-site work in the UK during the system integration phase.

Key Responsibilities:

• Design and test mixed signal electronic circuits for automotive applications.
• Simulate and validate electronic designs to meet project specifications.
• Contribute to battery management system designs including cell balancing and coulomb counting.
• Develop power supply systems, focusing on low-power DC-DC converters and USB-C power delivery.
• Implement microcontroller designs and integrate with peripheral circuits.
• Ensure designs meet high levels of electromagnetic compatibility.
• Prepare detailed documentation of design decisions and processes.
• Collaborate with remote and on-site teams throughout the project lifecycle.

Job Requirements:

• Experience in electronics design, particularly in designing rather than reviewing or commenting.
• Proficiency in battery monitor design, cell balancing, and current measurement circuit design.
• Expertise in designing microcontroller and peripheral circuits.
• Experience with low-power DC-DC converter designs (up to 300W, 3.3V to 48V).
• Capability in designing USB-C power delivery systems (up to 240W per port).
• Knowledge of communication protocols such as CAN, SPI, and SMBus.
• Familiarity with designing galvanic isolation circuits.
• Proven ability to design for high electromagnetic compatibility.
• Access to a home laboratory for testing and validation purposes.
• Proficiency in circuit simulation tools such as LTSpice, QSpice, or Tina-TI.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with Altium Designer for schematic capture is beneficial but not required.
• Access to live schematic editing with an Altium license and A365 is preferred.

Work Conditions:

• Fully remote work during the design and power-up phases.
• Occasional on-site work in the UK during system integration (location to be confirmed).

If you are a Mixed Signal Electronic Engineer with a passion for automotive innovation and are looking to contribute to exciting new projects, our client would love to hear from you. Apply now to join their dynamic and forward-thinking team.
