Senior Embedded Hardware Design Engineer H/F

Context

Within an R&D team developing embedded electronic products for industrial energy measurement applications, you will contribute to the design and evolution of highly technical digital electronic boards. You will work on end-to-end developments, from requirement analysis and specification through bring-up, validation, and product robustness improvement, in close collaboration with firmware, PCB, validation, and industrialization teams.

Your missions

• Participate in requirement analysis and hardware architecture function specification.
• Design digital electronic boards based on MPU / SoC architectures.
• Integrate associated functions such as memories, clocks, High Speed interfaces & serial buses interface, hardware security, and power conversion.
• Define and justify design choices with respect to expected performance, robustness, and industrialization.
• Define and drive PCB layout constraints in coordination with routing specialists (stack-up, impedance, critical signals, manufacturability).
• Contribute to bring-up, hardware testing, functional validation, and debugging activities.
• Participate in failure analysis, technical reviews, and continuous improvement of boards and subassemblies.
• Document technical choices, design constraints, and validation results.

Your Profile

• Engineering degree in electronics or equivalent.
• Proven experiences in digital electronic board design in embedded and industrial environments.
• Strong command of complex digital architectures based on MPU/SoC or equivalent.
• Experience integrating memories, high-speed interfaces, and power functions.
• Good understanding of PCB constraints, stack-up, critical signal routing, manufacturability and quality validation techniques (TDR, micro-section).
• Hands-on experience with lab bring-up and hardware debugging (i.e high-speed oscilloscope).
• Ability to work cross-functionally with PCB designer, industrialization, procurement firmware and quality.
• Technical rigor, analytical skills, autonomy, and strong communication abilities.

Additional appreciated skills

• Knowledge of signal integrity / power integrity topics.
• Signal integrity (i.e Sigrity) and electric simulation tools (PSpice)
• Good practices related to EMC / EMI / ESD.
• DFM / DFT approaches.
• Experience with electronic design tools such as Cadence / Allegro.
• capability to define power budget model & drive thermal simulation with experts
• Understanding of hardware / embedded software interactions, especially during boot and validation phases.

Environment

• Position based in Eybens / Grenoble area.
• Work within a multidisciplinary team.
• Hybrid work organization may be considered depending on project context and level of autonomy.
