Digital Design Engineer in Boston, MA

Digital Electronics Engineer required for Rugged Single-Board Computer design

We are setting up a team in the Boston area to design and develop single-board computer and related products for commercial and industrial environments. Right now we need a digital electronics engineer who is familiar with high-speed design and can work in a small company environment with international connections.

Our current activities center around expanding and enhancing our range of PMC, VME bus, CompactPCI and other products to meet the demands of our customers for advanced technology designs which often have to be tolerant of higher levels of mechanical shock and vibration. Our boards are based on Intel 80x86 CPUs, mainly the Pentium M and dual-core processors, with high-speed peripheral and other interfaces. Our designers take products from concept through to production, and are responsible for all hardware-related aspects of the design. Although board layout and routing is carried out by our specialist engineers, our designers are heavily involved even here in order to ensure the best quality result.

We need an established digital hardware design engineer, educated to graduate level and with upwards of five years post-graduate experience. Familiarity with 32/64-bit microprocessor design is assumed, ideally for the Intel 80x86 architecture, but PowerPC or other architectures are also appropriate. A high level of competence in the design of fast (at least 100MHz) signalling technologies, e.g. PCI Express or Gigabit Ethernet, is required, and a good understanding of PCI bus operation would be a big advantage. A strong background in bringing up and debugging prototype boards is essential. Practical experience of the thermal and mechanical issues involved in rugged product design would also be a significant advantage.

We use Cadence CAD tools for schematic capture and PCB layout, so a background in these tools would be useful but not essential.

Above all, you must be independent and a self-starter, with the ability to communicate effectively with our development teams both here and in the UK, and with purchasing, manufacturing and other less technical personnel. Although this job is based in a new office in the Boston area, you may occasionally need to visit our factory in the UK.

Mechanical Design Engineer in Boston, MA

Mechanical Engineer required for Rugged Single-Board Computer design

We are setting up a team in the Boston area to design and develop single-board computer and related products for commercial and industrial environments. To do this we need a mechanical engineer who can design and prove the thermal and mechanical elements of these dense electronic assemblies.

Our current activities center around expanding and enhancing our range of PMC, VME bus, CompactPCI and other products to meet the demands of our customers for advanced technology designs which often have to be tolerant of higher levels of mechanical shock and vibration. Beyond this we are looking at more complex system-level products involving even more extensive mechanical design.

Our boards are based on Intel 80x86 CPUs, mainly the Pentium M and dual-core processors, with high-speed peripheral and other interfaces. Working in a limited mechanical envelope usually less than 1 inch high, the products have to dispose of heat through convection or conduction and still withstand higher than average levels of mechanical shock and vibration. Working closely with our electronics and board layout engineers at all the different stages of board development, the mechanical engineer needs to design cost-effective and compact solutions which have excellent thermal transfer characteristics.

We need an established mechanical design engineer, educated to graduate level and with upwards of five years post-graduate experience. A background in design for electronic equipment, is required, ideally involving bus-based modular boards or products with relatively high levels of power dissipation (around 50W or more). A familiarity with VME or CompactPCI bus systems would be perfect, but is not required. Practical experience of the thermal and mechanical issues involved in designing for rugged environments such as airborne or ground vehicle mounted equipment would be a significant advantage.

You must be able to work in a small company environment, and be prepared to liaise as necessary with both our own designers here and in the UK, and local subcontractors for manufacture of the mechanical parts and product testing. Above all, this means that you must be independent and a self-starter, able to plan and carry out your work with little supervision, but with the ability to deliver effective results in short timescales.

Although this job is based in a new office in the Boston area, you may occasionally need to visit our factory in the UK.

Practical experience of the thermal and mechanical issues involved in designing for rugged environments such as airborne or ground vehicle mounted equipment would be a significant advantage.

You must be able to work in a small company environment, and be prepared to liaise as necessary with both our own designers here and in the UK, and local subcontractors for manufacture of the mechanical parts and product testing. Above all, this means that you must be independent and a self-starter, able to plan and carry out your work with little supervision, but with the ability to deliver effective results in short timescales.

Although this job is based in a new office in the Boston area, you may occasionally need to visit our factory in the UK.

Digital Design Engineer in Boston, MA

Digital Electronics Engineer required for Rugged Single-Board Computer design

We are setting up a team in the Boston area to design and develop single-board computer and related products for commercial and industrial environments. Right now we need a digital electronics engineer who is familiar with high-speed design and can work in a small company environment with international connections.

Our current activities center around expanding and enhancing our range of PMC, VME bus, CompactPCI and other products to meet the demands of our customers for advanced technology designs which often have to be tolerant of higher levels of mechanical shock and vibration. Our boards are based on Intel 80x86 CPUs, mainly the Pentium M and dual-core processors, with high-speed peripheral and other interfaces. Our designers take products from concept through to production, and are responsible for all hardware-related aspects of the design. Although board layout and routing is carried out by our specialist engineers, our designers are heavily involved even here in order to ensure the best quality result.

We need an established digital hardware design engineer, educated to graduate level and with upwards of five years post-graduate experience. Familiarity with 32/64-bit microprocessor design is assumed, ideally for the Intel 80x86 architecture, but PowerPC or other architectures are also appropriate. A high level of competence in the design of fast (at least 100MHz) signalling technologies, e.g. PCI Express or Gigabit Ethernet, is required, and a good understanding of PCI bus operation would be a big advantage. A strong background in bringing up and debugging prototype boards is essential. Practical experience of the thermal and mechanical issues involved in rugged product design would also be a significant advantage.

We use Cadence CAD tools for schematic capture and PCB layout, so a background in these tools would be useful but not essential.

Above all, you must be independent and a self-starter, with the ability to communicate effectively with our development teams both here and in the UK, and with purchasing, manufacturing and other less technical personnel. Although this job is based in a new office in the Boston area, you may occasionally need to visit our factory in the UK.
