We are seeking an experienced Senior Networking Hardware Engineer to join our India R&D team. In this role, you will take a leadership position in the end-to-end development of our advanced wired (Ethernet Switch) and wireless (Wi-Fi AP) platforms. You will guide architectural decisions, drive design best practices (DFM/DFA/DFC), and oversee the validation of complex systems. This is a key role for a proven expert who can solve challenging technical problems, mentor other engineers, and successfully bring next-generation products from concept to mass production.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead the architectural definition, hardware circuit design, and verification of complex networking products.
Drive design reviews for DFM (Design for Manufacturing), DFA (Design for Assembly), and DFC (Design for Cost), providing critical feedback to optimize for production.
Oversee the development of detailed specifications and validation plans, including signal characterization, power modeling, and system coexistence testing.
Guide the troubleshooting of critical issues during development, factory builds, and RMA failure analysis, implementing effective corrective actions.
Champion new technologies by surveying, evaluating, and recommending new solutions and platforms.
Collaborate effectively with and guide cross-functional teams, including PCB layout, firmware, mechanical, power, thermal, and project management.
Ensure designs meet all requirements for functionality, reliability, and compliance (ESD, Surge, safety).
Basic Qualifications:
Bachelors or masters degree in electrical engineering or a related field.
5+ years of experience in hardware design, with a proven track record of taking complex networking products from concept to mass production.
Deep expertise in Networking Product Design (Ethernet Switches & Wireless APs).
Expert knowledge of High-Speed Design & Signal Integrity (SerDes/DDR/RF) principles.
In-depth knowledge of leading silicon vendor solutions (Broadcom, Marvell) and processor architectures (ARM/MIPS/x86).
Strong experience with Power over Ethernet (PoE, 802.3at/bt) and power management methods (DC/DC converters).
Proficiency with hardware EDA tools such as Cadence Allegro and OrCAD Capture.
Preferred Qualifications:
Deep understanding of manufacturing processes and experience with network product field applications.
Experience with ESD, Surge, and safety/compliance regulations.
Familiarity with firmware development cycles and their interaction with hardware.
Experience with various RF technologies (WiFi / BLE / Zigbee / NFC).
