PCB Design Engineer

Roles and Responsibilities

As part of the R&D team, the candidate should be able to perform following (but not limited to) duties to support the team’s goals :

Own the complete multilayer PCB design cycle from concept to production release

Import mechanical outlines (DXF / EMN / EMP), define constraints, and perform precise component placement as per schematic and layout guidelines

Execute PCB routing , focusing on signal integrity, EMI / EMC, and manufacturability

Generate and validate Gerber outputs, ensuring conformance with BTL’s in-house manufacturing guidelines

Create and maintain CAD libraries (symbols and footprints) aligned with IPC standards and BTL guidelines.

Collaborate with hardware engineers for layout reviews and constraint management

Work closely with the MCAD team to ensure mechanical compatibility and integration

Ensure adherence to DFM / DFT / DFA guidelines and BOM optimization

Handle project deliverables independently , managing timelines and quality checkpoints

Support documentation, version control , and release workflows using BTL’s internal systems

Contribute to process improvements , share layout best practices, and help evolve internal checklists and guidelines.
