PURPOSE OF THE JOB

Develop hardware electrical or electronic components (electronic board or modules, electrical wiring of electronic products or subrack or cubicle...)

ACCOUNTABILITIES & AUTHORITIES

• Elaborate or contribute to the elaboration of HW specification & architecture, in collaboration with the HW architect
• Perform development of HW components:
  • Perform the detailed specification and design of the Hw components, describing technical choices and verifying by analysis (computations, models, simulation or mock-up) the compliance to input requirements.
  • Define the general plans for mechanical parts together with Mechanical Designers
  • Define the electrical schematics
  • Define the Bill Of Materials
  • Define the placement and routing constraints for electronic boards
  • Evaluate the thermal performances together with Thermal Engineers
  • Select the materials, together with industrialization teams and HW technologists
  • Optionally defines the interfaces of the programmable components (FPGA, CPLD) together with FPGA Designers.
  • Performs or follow the realization of the PCB design (CAD) and definition file. This activity can be under responsibility of another HW designer specialized in CAD.
  • Ensure that the design can be manufactured, tested and repaired, together with industrialization teams
  • Follow the realization of the prototypes made by industrialization team and check them
  • Design and implement the firmware / SW necessary for HW component tests - or specifies the softwares to be developed
  • Specify, design, prepare and perform HW components and work products verifications (including tests)
  • Put the Hw workproduct under configuration management according to product Configuration Management Plan
  • Support the Hw/ Hw and Hw/Sw integration, together with the HW Architect and SW designer
  • Support the HW validation of the product including environmental qualification and type tests
• Sustain the Hw
• Remain informed of the evolution of technologies through techno watch
• Through his / her activities, contribute to standardization by reusing existing solutions or by implementing reusable solutions
• Apply processes and standards
• Contribute to continuous improvement (RoE: Return on Experience, process …)
• Ensures reporting of its activities to the HW Architect
