We are seeking a talented and detail-oriented Electrical Engineer to join our engineering team. This role focuses on the design and development of hardware and firmware solutions for microprocessor-based systems.

You will work independently while collaborating with a small, cross-functional team to deliver high-quality, innovative solutions.

Key Responsibilities

Design and develop hardware systems and embedded firmware for microprocessor-based devices. Create and maintain PCB layouts using Altium Designer. Integrate and debug systems involving PLCs, sensors, and actuators. Collaborate with contractors, designers, and administrative staff to meet project goals.
