Join to apply for the
Lead Analog/Mixed‑Signal Design Engineer, Instrumentation
role at
LECO
Base pay range $115,000.00/yr - $170,000.00/yr
Imagine your circuitry powering discoveries At LECO—an industry leader in laboratory instruments for over 80 years—you’ll help craft the electronics that scientists rely on worldwide. We’re a family‑owned team in St. Joseph, Michigan, built on trust, loyalty, and long‑range thinking.
On‑Site Schedule:
Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
The challenge A new instrument demands ultra‑stable measurement electronics, responsive thermal control, and robust AC power handling. You’ll architect and deliver the sub‑assemblies that make it possible—working independently yet shoulder‑to‑shoulder with cross‑functional partners.
Your mission
Own advanced electrical component and sub‑assembly design with minimal supervision
Research, prototype, test, and iterate to achieve performance targets
Dig into production issues, identify root causes, and implement durable fixes
Produce clear schematics, BOMs, specifications, and maintain an engineering logbook
Assemble documentation for design reviews and maintain a complete design history
Collaborate across disciplines, weighing system‑level impacts and tradeoffs
Scout and evaluate emerging technologies to advance innovation
Lead specialty design efforts with a high degree of technical autonomy
What you’ll leverage
Mixed‑signal design (ADC/DAC) for measurement systems
Microcontroller‑centric hardware design
Analog circuit expertise
Closed‑loop temperature control techniques
AC design across single‑phase and three‑phase systems
High‑voltage (≈1 kV and above, typically low power) safety‑minded design
Motor control and drive electronics
Human‑machine interface (HMI) circuitry
System‑level architecture and integration
PCB/PWB design and PWA practices
Wire harness design
How you work
Excellent communicator who documents thoroughly and clearly
Strong interpersonal, coordination, and facilitation skills
Keen awareness of multi‑disciplinary and stakeholder needs
Background
Master’s degree; or Bachelor’s degree with significant related experience
7+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience
This position reports to the Manager, Electronics Research & Engineering, or the Manager, RF Products.
