Jan 2020 - Jan 2023
My primary responsibility was to develop intelligent communication and control devices used in the electric power industry. Participate in all phases of the product development lifecycle (Concepts, Requirements, Design, Prototype, Testing, Release and Support) following a structured engineering process to ensure quality and reliability. Participated in digital and analog design, schematic capture, and PCB layout using Altium for new products, including memory/IO/UART/ADC/FPGA/logic circuits and power supply design. Conducted signal integrity analysis and design digital circuits using LTSPICE and other simulation/design software. Developed test software for board bring up and design verification, documented test plan, test criteria and conducted test for circuits designed. Supported and resolved engineering problems found during production and field. Developed supporting engineering documentation including hardware requirements, design documentation, design verification test plans, and production test/calibration requirements. Actively communicated with the cross functional teams to ensure schedule, cost, and performance alignment. Show less
