PCB Designer (Technician III Eng)
Direct Hire
Location: Shoreview, MN
The PCB Layout Designer collaborates with electrical and mechanical engineers to translate schematics into manufacturable PCB designs and documentation. This role involves applying practical skills in component placement, high‑speed signal routing, analog layout, and EMC prevention techniques. A successful candidate requires strong attention to detail, the ability to learn quickly, and the drive to produce high‑quality designs in collaboration with cross‑functional teams.
What Will You Do?
Schematic & Part Management
Import and process designs from OrCAD and Altium
Create and update schematics; build and maintain schematic symbols, PCB footprints, and part records in SAP and OrCAD CIP
PCB Layout & Verification
Collaborate with electrical engineers to define high‑speed nets, spacing, and placement requirements
Apply advanced routing techniques for high‑speed, power, and analog circuitry
Verify designs using HyperLynx DRC and resolve routing issues
Participate in design reviews to ensure quality and manufacturability
Mechanical Integration
Generate 3D board models, connector outlines, and shrink‑wrap PCA design files
Work with mechanical engineers to confirm proper form, fit, and integration of PCAs
Documentation & Support
Produce Gerber files, assembly drawings, BOMs, and manufacturing documentation
Provide technical support to assemblers and address layout/assembly questions
Manage design file revisions, archiving, and documentation in SAP
Process Improvement & Collaboration
Identify and recommend improvements to tools and workflows
Work effectively in cross‑functional teams and adapt quickly to new technologies and design concepts
Support additional assignments and special projects as required
Required Skills
Electronic Technology AA degree or Certificate with 5+ years of relevant work experience OR High School Diploma or GED with 8+ years of relevant work experience
Experience in PCB layout, signal/planes stack‑up, impedance calculations, and high‑speed routing techniques
Proficient in using a CAD system
Deep understanding of the relationship between physical layout and electrical performance, RF performance, and emissions
Experience in multilayer PCB manufacturing processes, including standard thru‑hole
Knowledge of signal integrity and transmission line concepts (crosstalk, termination, BGA breakout, etc.)
Excellent verbal and written communication skills
Ability to work with cross functional teams and in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment
Desired
5+ years using Allegro or OrCAD PCB Editor
5+ years using Altium
3+ years using HyperLynx DRC
