Careers

Hardware Engineer

Great career opportunity with established and rapidly growing technology company

DiCon has an immediate need for a Hardware Engineer, to design and develop the electronics that are associated with our products. The position will be focused primarily on the development of solid-state lighting products for DiCon Lighting, from initial concept to production ramp-up, although there may also be some work related to DiCon’s optical communications products. As such, the primary function for this position is the board-level design and development of control electronics and LED driver circuitry for a broad range of solid-state lighting products. In addition to the development of new products, there will be a major focus on the redesign of the electronics for existing products, to achieve major reductions in size and cost, as well as performance improvements. The position also includes partial ownership of DiCon’s hardware development process, with responsibility for identifying and implementing process improvements that will reduce time-to-market, lower costs, and improve product quality and reliability. The position requires working closely with FW/SW engineers, optical engineers, mechanical engineers and industrial designers, as well as manufacturing engineers, QA, field application engineers, and representatives from sales and marketing.

Qualifications & Requirements

• BSEE minimum, MSEE preferred.
• Industry experience in circuit design, primarily at the board level, is strongly preferred.
• Must have experience in designing digital circuits, including microprocessors and microcontrollers. Experience with LED driver circuitry is strongly preferred.
• Proficiency in PADS, OrCAD, PowerPCB, or equivalent software, for board layout.
• Experience with wireless device architectures, using Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, etc., and “Internet of Things” architectures, is preferred.
• Experience with communications bus architectures (I 2 C, RS485, RS232, USB, DMX-512, Ethernet, etc.) is a plus.
• Experience in a manufacturing environment is preferred. Experience in designing products for cost-sensitive consumer applications is a plus.
• Must have excellent hardware troubleshooting skills, and experience with firmware debugging tools is a plus.
• Must be able to work both independently and as a team player, meeting tight delivery schedules, and juggling multiple simultaneous project assignments.
