• Review Requirements, Schematic and BOMs to identify value engineering opportunities for cost, lead time, SKU consolidation, and sourcing flexibility.
• Analyze and improve existing hardware designs to support cost optimization, obsolescence mitigation, and supply chain resilience.
• Evaluate and implement alternate electronic and electro-mechanical components (e.g., VFD units, relays, transformers, contactors etc).
• Design and modify embedded systems using 8/16/32-bit microcontrollers, integrating both analog and digital circuitry.
• Replace custom or high-cost unique components with standard, cost-effective equivalents without compromising function, manufacturability, or regulatory compliance.
• Update and maintain schematics, BOMs, component libraries, and supporting design documents.
• Support sustenance engineering activities such as component lifecycle management and redesigns.
• Contribute to compliance support, including UL/CE re-certification following design updates.
• Propose and validate alternate PCB layouts for cost and manufacturability improvements.
• Prepare and execute module/system-level test plans for modified hardware.
• Able to prepare component tests plans based on data sheets and application scenarios
• Adhere to internal product development and engineering change processes and contributing to continuous improvement.
