PCB Layout Engineer Vacancy
Job description
– Design power PCBs: high-current layout, heavy copper, busbars, creepage/clearance, and EMC-driven layout practices.
– Lay out mixed-signal boards: gate drive circuits, analog sensing chains, and MCU/digital sections with clean grounding and partitioning.
– Own the layout flow: library and footprint management, stackup definition, design rules, and fabrication outputs (Gerbers, drawings, assembly data).
– Work with PCB manufacturers and assemblers: DFM/DFA reviews, and support during fabrication and assembly.
– Support prototype bring-up and EMC testing, feeding lessons learned back into layout practices.
Profile required
– Professional engineering education (MSc or equivalent) in electrical engineering or equivalent experience, with 5+ years of hands-on PCB layout experience across power and mixed-signal boards.
– Proficiency in KiCad, or solid experience with Altium/other tools and a willingness to learn.
– Understanding of power electronics layout constraints: switching loops, parasitics, thermal management, creepage/clearance.
– Knowledge of EMC-driven layout: grounding strategies, return paths, filter placement, shielding.
– Knowledge with PCB fabrication and assembly processes: stackups, heavy copper, via technologies.
– You enjoy owning your scope end-to-end.
We offer:
– Your work will fly. Contribute directly to the future of space exploration and Sustainable Space.
– Access to cutting-edge facilities and development opportunities in the heart of the European space industry.
– A steep personal development path, working alongside world class aerospace engineers.
– Equity package and competitive compensation.
– A highly talented, dynamic and international team.
