About the role

We are the hardware engineering group that designs and implements embedded systems (meters) for collecting TV tuning and TV viewing data. Our team’s responsibilities include electrical schematic design, circuit board layout, and enclosure mechanical design. We use contract manufacturers to build prototypes and production meters. Typical meter designs consist of a single main board with a dozen or more integrated circuits (BGA, QFP, TDFN, SOT, etc) and related passive components. Our designs range in size from rack mount equipment to devices as small as a wrist watch. We design and create automated manufacturing test systems that incorporate various instruments such as optical detectors, power supplies, DVMs, RF generators, and frequency converters. These test systems are used to validate newly manufactured equipment.

Key Responsibilities

You will be directly responsible for supporting product innovation and contributing to recommendations to employ leading-edge technology to design solutions. You will be expected to guide engineering technology, make appropriate technology tradeoff decisions, and arbitrate opposing ideas. Explore and provide alternative solutions to problems. Key responsibilities include analysis, design, implementation, validation, troubleshooting and support for electronic systems including:
