Semiconductor Devices (SCD) is a global leader in the development and manufacturing of advanced infrared detectors and electro-optical solutions for defense and commercial applications.
We are seeking a skilled Board Designer with extensive experience in high-speed digital design to join our Board Design R&D Team.
In this role, you will define system and hardware requirements, design FPGA-based hardware platforms, and validate high-speed interfaces such as DDR4, USB3, Ethernet, MIPI, and Camera Link. You will work closely with firmware, software, and mechanical engineers to deliver robust, production-ready embedded systems for advanced electro-optical products.
Define hardware requirements and prepare detailed design documentation for FPGA-based boards, including power architecture, configuration, and peripheral circuitry.
Develop schematics and oversee PCB layout for complex, high-speed multilayer boards.
Perform hardware simulations and signal analysis using tools such as LTspice and Cadence.
Design and validate high-speed interfaces including DDR4, USB3, Ethernet, MIPI, and Camera Link.
Define and manage PCB stack-ups, impedance control, differential pair routing, and high-speed layout constraints.
Conduct Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis to ensure performance, robustness, and reliability.
Lead prototype bring-up, testing, and debugging using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, VNAs).
Collaborate with firmware, software, and mechanical teams to ensure full system integration.
Participate in design reviews, DFM/DFT processes, and continuous design improvements.
Support production and NPI activities, and resolve hardware-related manufacturing issues.
Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or related field).
7+ years of hands-on experience in PCB and FPGA-based board design.
Strong proficiency in schematic capture and PCB design tools (OrCAD, Cadence Allegro).
Deep understanding of high-speed digital design principles (impedance control, timing constraints, crosstalk mitigation).
Solid knowledge of power supply design, sequencing, and decoupling strategies.
Practical experience with hardware validation and SI/PI simulation tools.
Proven experience working closely with PCB layout engineers, with strong understanding of layout rules and design trade-offs.
Proficiency in lab test and measurement equipment for debugging and validation.
Experience with VHDL development.
Familiarity with ASIC development processes.
The position requires eligibility for obtaining Israeli security clearance.
This position is open to all qualified candidates and is intended for both women and men.
