Electronics Product Design Engineering - Senior Professional

Key Responsibilities


* Requirements Engineering & Traceability


* Lead definition, decomposition, and validation of hardware requirements from system and stakeholder inputs (functional, electrical, environmental, safety, regulatory).


* Own the requirements baseline in IBM DOORS (Next Gen) and/or Jama Connect: module structure, attributes, link rules, versioning, and workflow.


* Establish and enforce bi-directional traceability from stakeholder - system - hardware - design artifacts - verification - validation (V-model).


* Drive requirement quality (clear, unambiguous, testable, verifiable, atomic, bounded) using checklists and automated quality tools where available.


* Run change control (ECR/ECO) and impact analysis on requirements/design/test, managing baselines and variants across platforms/SKUs.


* Product Development Leadership


* Translate requirements into architectural choices and design constraints for PCBs, power, analog/mixed-signal, digital, high-speed interfaces, and environmental constraints.


* Collaborate with Electrical Design, Layout, and FW to ensure requirements are feasible, cost-optimized, and testable.


* Align requirements with DFx (DFT/DFM/DFR), EMI/EMC, safety (e.g., IEC/UL), thermal, and reliability objectives.


* Guide teams through FMEA, FTA, worst-case analysis (WCA), tolerance analysis, derating, and component selection aligned to lifecycle and obsolescence plans.


* Own verification planning for hardware (test strategy, methods, coverage), and ensure traceability to verification evidence (lab reports, simulations, compliance certificates).


* Process & Governance


* Conduct requirements reviews and gate readiness (SRR, PDR, CDR, QR, PR).


* Coach teams on DOORS/Jama usage, link rules, attributes, and best practices; act as tool admin for projects where needed.


* Drive continuous improvement in requirement quality, defect prevention, and re-use libraries.


* Stakeholder & Communication


* Serve as the single point of contact for hardware requirement clarifications with Systems Engineering, Product Management, and Customers.


* Prepare and present status, risk, and coverage dashboards (trace matrices, verification progress, open issues).


* Lead cross-functional problem-solving to resolve requirement conflicts, ambiguities, and compliance gaps.

Must-Have Qualifications



* 12-18+ years overall hardware development experience, including 5+ years owning requirements in DOORS and/or Jama for complex products.


* Strong background in analog/mixed-signal or digital hardware (power supplies, microcontrollers, high-speed interfaces, sensors, communication buses).


* Demonstrated expertise in requirements decomposition, traceability, and verification planning (V-model).


* Hands-on with DOORS / DOORS NG and/or Jama Connect: schema design, baselining, change management, traceability reports, reviews.


* Experience wit...
