High-Speed PCB Design Engineer
Location: House of BioHealth, Luxembourg
Type: Full-time
Responsibilities
Own the high-speed PCB design for spacecraft payload electronics, from concept through layout release.
Define and maintain technical specifications for electronic subsystems and high-speed interfaces.
Design PCBs to ECSS and/or IPC Class 3 requirements, including stack-up definition, controlled impedance routing, and manufacturability/assembly constraints.
Perform signal integrity (SI) / power integrity (PI) analysis and simulations (e.g., impedance profiles, eye diagrams, return loss, crosstalk, PDN impedance), and translate results into layout constraints.
Drive component selection for high-speed designs (connectors, SerDes/DDR/USB/PCIe components where relevant), including COTS/HiRel selection and qualification of EEE parts and PCB assemblies.
Prepare and support electrical test campaigns (functional, performance, EMC, ESD), working closely with test and system teams.
Assess reliability, failure modes, and safety of electronic components and interconnects; contribute to design reviews and risk mitigation.
Troubleshoot and resolve design issues during development, bring-up, testing, and integration, ensuring timely delivery of the payload.
Collaborate closely with mechanical, thermal, and systems engineering to ensure clean integration of the electronics module into the overall payload.
Requirements
Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering (or equivalent professional experience).
Minimum 5 years of experience in PCB design.
Proven expertise with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer) and high-speed layout practices, including:
Controlled impedance routing (microstrip/stripline) and stack-up planning
Differential pair routing, length matching, propagation delay management
Parasitics modeling, via/return path optimization
Crosstalk minimization and EMC-aware layout
Strong skills in preparing and maintaining technical documentation (schematics, layout constraints, stack-ups, review packages, engineering reports).
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with hands-on bring-up/debug mindset.
