You will create associated technical documentation including drawings, component specifications, and bills of materials (BOMs). You will produce technical documentation and output files required by vendors to build PCBs. You will work with outside vendors and design engineers to address questions and/or requests that arise during fabrication. You will create and maintain part entries in the Enercon PDM system, component library, and other applicable databases.

You must have familiarity with PCB layout methods and design rules, particularly for high-speed signal routing (impedance controls, differential pairs, etc.). You must have a strong understanding of how to design for PCBA manufacturing equipment, processes, and other DFM/DFA/DFT considerations. You must have familiarity with all common electronic component package types and mounting methods. You must have familiarity with industry standards (ex. IPC) and their application to PCB design and manufacture. You must have excellent organizational skills and attention to detail. You must be able to work with a minimum of supervision and able to estimate resources required to accomplish a task.
