About the Role
As an EE Schematic and PCB Layout Engineer at Naveera, you'll own the electrical design and PCB execution for our custom AI/IoT edge hardware platform. You will lead schematic development, guide PCB layout, define stackup and routing constraints, review high-speed interfaces, and support the board from architecture through prototype bring-up and production readiness. This role is ideal for someone who can connect schematic decisions to real-world board behavior, especially across power, clocks, reset, memory, high-speed routing, manufacturability, and debug.
Responsibilities
Lead schematic design and review for the main PCB and related hardware modules
Own PCB layout direction from early placement through routing review, fabrication release, and assembly handoff
Define PCB stackup, layer count, impedance targets, via strategy, spacing rules, and length-matching constraints
Design and review high-speed embedded interfaces including LPDDR, eMMC/UFS, MIPI CSI, USB, PCIe/SATA, SDIO, and related clocks
Design and review power architecture, PMIC sequencing, reset logic, watchdog circuits, load switches, always-on rails, and power-good behavior
Review DDR/LPDDR routing, controlled impedance, reference planes, return paths, decoupling, PDN quality, and length matching
Review camera, wireless, audio, CAN, UART, I2C, SPI, boot, debug, and test-point circuits
Identify schematic and layout risks before fabrication and document clear action items for resolution
Support board bring-up, hardware debug, validation, rework decisions, and root-cause analysis
Work closely with firmware, mechanical, sourcing, PCB layout, fabrication, and assembly partners
Drive DFM, DFT, EMI/ESD, thermal, and manufacturing-readiness reviews before release
Maintain clean design documentation, review notes, constraints, BoM inputs, and release packages
Required Qualifications
7+ years of experience in electrical hardware design, PCB design, or high-speed embedded systems
Strong schematic design experience with application processors, SoCs, MPUs, FPGAs, or other complex digital platforms
Experience designing or reviewing 8+ layer multilayer PCBs for high-speed embedded systems
Strong understanding of PCB stackup planning, impedance control, power/ground plane strategy, return paths, and layer-count tradeoffs
Experience with DDR/LPDDR, high-speed differential pairs, length matching, skew control, fanout strategy, and controlled-impedance routing
Experience with power tree design, PMICs, DC/DC converters, LDOs, sequencing, reset circuits, decoupling, and board-level power validation
Ability to deeply review PCB layouts, not just create schematics
Experience preparing or reviewing manufacturing outputs including Gerbers/ODB++, fabrication notes, assembly files, BoM, and design release packages
Comfortable reading processor datasheets, hardware design guides, reference schematics, layout constraint documents, and component specifications
Experience with Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, or similar professional EDA tools
Strong debugging skills using schematics, layout files, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power measurements, and bring-up checklists
Ability to communicate design risks clearly and drive issues to closure with remote engineers or external partners
Preferred Qualifications
10+ years of experience with complex embedded hardware or high-speed PCB design
Experience with Rockchip, NXP, Qualcomm, Renesas, TI, NVIDIA Jetson, or similar embedded processor platforms
Experience with HDI boards, microvias, dense BGA fanout, fine-pitch components, and high-density placement
Experience with SI/PI review or simulation tools such as HyperLynx, Ansys, Sigrity, Polar, or similar
Experience with MIPI CSI camera systems, image sensors, wireless modules, CAN, audio codecs, USB-C, PCIe, or automotive-style input protection
Experience taking boards from early prototype through EVT/DVT/PVT or production release
Experience working with PCB fabricators and assembly houses to resolve DFM, yield, and fabrication issues
Experience reviewing work from external PCB layout engineers and enforcing design constraints
Background in IoT, edge AI, robotics, automotive, surveillance, camera systems, or embedded Linux hardware
Experience
Electrical hardware design / PCB design: 7 years required
High-speed multilayer PCB design: 5 years preferred
8+ layer PCB design or review: required
