At Ideagen Wearable Safety, we're developing technology that helps prevent life-changing injuries in high-risk industries. As we embark on the development of our next-generation industrial wearable platform, we're looking for a Senior Electronics Engineer to lead the hardware design of innovative connected safety solutions.
This is more than an electronics design role. You'll play a key part in shaping product architecture, leading hardware development and collaborating with cross-functional teams to bring new products from concept through to manufacture and release.
Responsibilities
- Lead the hardware design and development of new and existing wearable safety products from concept through to production.
- Define system architectures and create schematic designs incorporating sensors, microcontrollers, RFID, Bluetooth, UWB, cellular communications and power management technologies.
- Own PCB layout and design activities, ensuring products meet performance, quality and manufacturing requirements.
- Collaborate with firmware, software, mechanical and test engineers to deliver integrated product solutions.
- Provide technical guidance to manufacturing partners and external suppliers throughout the product lifecycle.
- Define and support product qualification, certification and compliance activities including EMC, radio and safety testing.
- Maintain robust design documentation, reviews and change control processes in line with ISO9001 requirements.
- Support product validation, troubleshooting and continuous improvement to enhance product performance and reliability.
