Senior Board Design Hardware Engineer

Company: Larch Networks - Specializes in electronics and software engineering, focusing on high-load switching, communication platforms, Linux, and IoT devices. Established in 2009 with offices in Israel and Kyiv.

We are looking for a highly skilled and autonomous Senior Board Design Hardware Engineer to join our R&D team and lead the development of complex, high-speed digital boards from concept to mass production.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the full lifecycle of complex multi-layer PCB design (from initial technical specifications to mass production release) with minimum board design cycles.

• Develop schematics design for CPUs, high-performance Marvell packet processors, and system-on-chip (SoC) architectures.

• Design and integrate high-speed digital interfaces: SerDes, PCI-e, Ethernet, DDR2/3/4, and MII/GMII.

• Manage service and management interfaces including I2C, SMI, and SPI.

• Design and calculate robust power circuitry, including high-efficiency DC/DC converters and Power Integrity (PI) management.

• Provide layout support and strict guidelines for PCB Layout Designers, ensuring top-tier Signal Integrity (SI).

• Conduct laboratory bring-up, hardware debugging, validation, and testing using professional equipment (Oscilloscopes, Signal Generators, Power Analyzers).

Requirements:

• Education: B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering, Radio Engineering, or a related technical field.

• Experience: 6+ years of proven commercial experience in high-speed digital board design (networking/telecom hardware is a strong advantage).

• Deep understanding of high-speed digital logic, Signal Integrity (SI), Power Integrity (PI), and electromagnetic compatibility (EMI/RFI).

• Hands-on proficiency with OrCAD Capture (or equivalent high-end EDA software).

• Solid experience with lab test equipment (Scope, Signal Generator).

• Languages: English 

Will be a plus:

• Experience with CPLD/FPGA for power sequencing and basic logic design.

What We Offer:

• Opportunity to work on cutting-edge telecom and data-center hardware products.

• Modern laboratory equipped with top-tier measurement instruments.

• Professional growth in an engineering-driven company culture.

• Competitive salary, comprehensive benefits package, and flexible working conditions.
