We are seeking a high-performing PCB Layout Design Engineer interested in leading the in-house development of GM electronics design. You will be responsible for the electrical design, development, and review of Electrical Controllers, for our next generation SDV (Software Defined Vehicle) architecture. You will be depended upon to build strong partnerships with internal and external customers.

The Role:

In-vehicle electronics is a fast-growing technology in the global automotive industry featuring many cutting-edge technologies such as Compute, body controllers, multi-view cameras, Gig+Ethernet, PCIe, digital/analog interfaces and more. We are looking for creative and enthusiastic candidates to become part of a fast-moving team who want to lead the future direction of the automotive industry.

The ECU hardware design team's mission is to ensure our products are designed to target the growing needs of our customers while ensuring robust, well-designed hardware which meets GM specifications and testing requirements from early hardware through the production design. In this role you will be responsible for leading product development and integration activities.

Responsibilities include utilizing engineering tools and processes to successfully develop components and systems for vehicle programs. You'll effectively achieve program milestones by thorough and effective program management. You will coach and lead suppliers to timely execution of program work with excellence.

What You'll Do (Responsibilities):

• Creating and designing the physical layout of integrated circuits (ICs) or printed circuit boards (PCBs). This involves placing and routing components, traces, and other elements to ensure proper functionality and performance.
• Create / lead / verify the layout design by conducting design rule checks (DRC) and design for manufacturability (DFM) checks. This ensures that the design meets the required specifications, constraints, and manufacturing capabilities.
• Create / collaborate closely with other design teams, such as circuit designers, system engineers, and packaging engineers, to understand design requirements and constraints. They work together to optimize the layout design for performance, power, area, and manufacturability.
• Select the appropriate technology and process for the layout design based on the project requirements, such as the target application, performance goals, and manufacturing capabilities.
• Optimize the layout design for various factors by working with SI/PI/EMC/Thermal/Mechanical subject matter experts. They ensure that the layout design meets the required performance and reliability criteria.
• Support ECAD librarians by ensuring development of ECAD library parts meet PCBA Design for Manufacturing (DFM) & GM resiliency requirements.
• Collaborate with component engineers, procurement, and supply chain teams to select appropriate components for PCBA design.
• Apply Design for Assembly (DFA) principles to ensure PCBA design is optimized for efficient assembly processes.
• Identify opportunities for process improvements, cost reduction, and quality enhancement in PCBA manufacturing.

Additional Description

What You'll Need (Qualifications):

• Bachelor of Science in Engineering
• Professional experience creating digital/analog HW interfaces including schematic creation and/or PCB layout, simulation & supportive documentation
• Minimum 3 years working experience in PCB layout design
• Experience in design & analysis tools like Mentor Graphics (schematic & layout)

Preferred Qualifications :

• Previous industry experience with infotainment, telematics or connectivity
• 5 years or more experience in PCB layout design
• Knowledgeable in High speed Communication Buses (Ethernet, PCIe, SerDes...)
