About the Company
i2Systems is a leading lighting products manufacturing company, committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
About the Role
i2Systems is seeking an experienced Hardware / PCB Layout Engineer to design and deliver the electronics for our next-generation embedded control platform. This is a fast-paced, focused engagement where you\'ll adapt existing reference designs and execute PCB layout for a custom control board. You\'ll work closely with our embedded software contractor to ensure seamless hardware-firmware integration. This role requires a hands-on engineer who can move quickly with minimal supervision, interpret reference board designs, and deliver production-ready hardware on an accelerated timeline.
Responsibilities Board Design & Layout
Adapt reference board schematics for custom control board implementation
Perform complete PCB layout for high-performance embedded control system
Define board stack-up, power distribution, and signal routing strategy
Apply impedance control, differential pair matching, and best practices for signal integrity
High-Speed & Mixed-Signal Design
Route high-speed digital interfaces with proper signal integrity considerations
Integrate wireless communication modules and RF circuitry
Design multi-voltage power supply distribution
Implement proper grounding and noise mitigation strategies
Hardware Validation & Integration
Collaborate with embedded Linux contractor during board bring-up
Support electrical validation and debugging during prototype testing
Verify power sequencing, current draw, and interface functionality
Available for on-site integration testing sessions as needed
Documentation & Manufacturing
Generate complete design documentation: schematics, BOMs, Gerber files, assembly drawings
Coordinate with external fabrication and assembly vendors
Incorporate design revisions and prepare release documentation
Qualifications Required
10+ years of experience in PCB layout and design for embedded or industrial control electronics
Proven ability to deliver complex board designs independently with minimal oversight
Expert proficiency in Altium Designer or comparable PCB design suite
Strong experience with:
RF module integration and layout best practices
ARM-based embedded system designs
Commercial System on Module (SOM) platforms
Experience working directly with firmware/software engineering teams
Skilled with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and electrical test equipment
Preferred
Prior experience with industrial control systems or IoT devices
System on Module (SOM) integration and adaptation experience
Understanding of automotive or industrial standards and EMI/EMC considerations
Familiarity with thermal management and design-for-manufacturing principles
Experience adapting vendor reference designs to custom applications
Strong documentation discipline and revision control practices
Pay range and compensation package
Compensation: $90–$120/hr (DOE). This is a contract position with milestone-based deliverables. Compensation is commensurate with experience.
Equal Opportunity Statement
i2Systems is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion in the workplace.
Work Arrangement
On-site preferred for integration and validation phases
Remote considered for exceptional candidates with extensive relevant experience
Some on-site presence required for prototype bring-up and testing
What You\'ll Achieve
Design and deliver production-ready PCB layout adapted from reference platform
Collaborate with embedded engineer to validate prototypes and resolve integration issues
Produce complete, manufacturable design package with proper documentation
Enable accelerated time-to-market for next-generation control platform
To Apply
Submit your resume highlighting relevant embedded systems and high-speed PCB design projects. Portfolio examples welcome but not required.
