Your Challenge:
Translate product level requirements into implementable circuits
Work with Mechanical Engineering, Systems Engineering, and Management in an interactive manner to develop electrical solutions to project requirements
Define potential electrical implementation solutions and discuss tradeoffs
Design electrical solutions for PacStar products implemented as BOMS and Schematics in Altium
Low power (2 - 60W), low voltage (3, 5, 12, and 48 VDC) power circuits
LI-ION battery charging and monitoring circuits
PoE circuits
High Speed signal routing for Ethernet ports (100 Mbps to 10 Gbps)
Simple micro-processor design and firmware development (mostly board hotel functions)
Build parts and maintain library within Altium
Design for small size and physically rugged environments
Provide parts placement board models to Mechanical Engineering. Participate in the normal back and forth to address thermal and fitment issues
Layout of circuit boards in Altium
PacStar currently employs a mixed model of laying out boards in-house and utilizing external resources when timing or expertise dictate
Ability to layout boards and generate complete board fabrication packages is desired

Develop and test any microprocessor-based functions on the board (usually simple board hotel functions)
Develop and execute Design Verification Testing
Support Mechanical Engineering during physical integration of electronics into modules
Experience with EMI/EMC and ESD testing and debugging is preferred
Transition designs to manufacturing
Provide complete design packages to enable production build. Board production quantities are in the high hundreds per year utilizing mostly on-shore suppliers.
Develop and provide simple functional test plans/systems to board assembly house
Support factory with problem resolution and test support when required
Support designs once they are in the field
Provide technical support to field issues should they occur
Modify designs, if required, in response to field problems
Provide technical support for existing designs. All are fully documented in Altium and have been in production for 1 to 3 years.
Coordinate/communicate with management regarding schedule, milestones, technical status, etc.

Familiarity with design of network devices (Switches, Routers) and servers is a plus
Strong work ethic and commitment to customer support
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Accuracy and attention to detail is a must
Must be able to self-organize workloads and manage all deadlines
Who We Are:
Our Values
Environmental, Social and Governance
Pacific Star Communications, a Curtiss-Wright company, designs, manufactures and integrates hardware and software systems that enable rapid deployment of enterprise-class communications anywhere in the world. Our systems are used in mission-critical environments including military and disaster recovery - that demand the highest possible levels of quality. Innovation, creativity, and quality are built into our DNA here at PacStar and we look for the same in our employees.
PacStar is a leading supplier of small, rugged, and modular networking solutions primarily to the DoD.
