Automotive High-Speed Hardware Design Engineer

About the role

We are looking for an experienced engineer to lead the design and development of high‑speed hardware for ADAS, cockpit and connectivity ECUs. You will be responsible for taking concepts through to production‑ready boards that meet automotive safety and reliability standards.

Key responsibilities

• Lead hardware design for ADAS, cockpit and connectivity ECUs from concept to production.
• Design high‑speed digital boards using advanced SoCs, DDR4/DDR5, LPDDR, PCIe, Ethernet (RGMII/SGMII/RMII/10G), USB, MIPI CSI/DSI and SerDes interfaces.
• Perform schematic capture, component selection and BOM optimization for automotive‑grade reliability and cost efficiency.
• Conduct Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis for critical high‑speed signals and power rails.
• Support thermal design and validation in collaboration with mechanical and thermal engineers.
• Ensure ASIL‑D compliance (ISO 26262) and participate in FMEA, FMEDA and safety architecture reviews.
• Interface with camera, radar, LiDAR and sensor‑fusion modules to guarantee signal quality and timing.
• Work closely with PCB layout engineers on impedance, stack‑up, crosstalk and EMI/EMC constraints.
• Drive hardware validation, board‑level testing, debugging and root‑cause analysis.
• Collaborate with cross‑functional teams through design verification and PPAP stages.

Required profile

• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electronics, Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• 5–9 years of hands‑on automotive hardware design experience.
• Proven experience with SoC‑based board design (e.g., NVIDIA, Qualcomm, Renesas, TI, NXP, Infineon AURIX).
• Strong knowledge of ADAS, cockpit and IVI architectures.

Required skills

• High‑speed digital design (DDR4/DDR5, LPDDR, PCIe, Ethernet, USB 3.x, MIPI CSI/DSI, SerDes).
• Signal Integrity and Power Integrity analysis tools (HyperLynx, Sigrity, Ansys, Cadence).
• Automotive safety standards (ISO 26262, ASIL‑D) and EMI/EMC compliance (CISPR 25, ISO 11452).
• Thermal design and power sequencing expertise.
• Schematic capture tools (Altium, Cadence Allegro, Mentor DxDesigner, Zuken CR80).
