Overview
With the significant growth in hyperscale computing, we are expanding our team at Huber + Suhner Polatis to meet increased demand. We produce market‑leading optical circuit switches for advanced fibre‑optic connectivity in the communications, industrial and government sectors. The engineering department is the development engine of the business, taking new product ideas from concept into volume manufacture. The department consists of Systems, Mechanical, Electronic and Software Engineering teams focused on development and a New Product Introduction team focused on release to manufacture.
Your tasks
- Deliver hardware design from concept through to successful delivery of product into manufacturing.
- Work with a multi‑disciplinary team—mechanical engineers, software engineers and system engineers—to find solutions to customer requirements.
- Implement DfX as needed to ensure a robust supply chain and manufacturing process.
- Ensure adherence to the relevant quality systems and engineering processes.
- Conduct electronic requirements review and create/ review compliance matrices.
- Perform electronic architecture review, simulation and prototyping to analyse concept designs.
- Design and layout PCBs using Altium, perform component lifecycle analysis, maintain component database, create new parts and peer‑review other engineers’ work.
- Design and implement electronic circuits using schematic capture for digital embedded systems.
- Create test plans to validate new designs or design iterations.
- Validate testing and qualification of resilient hardware and firmware designs.
- Support other design areas during the product development lifecycle.
