This role requires a hands-on engineer capable of reconstructing schematics, developing firmware, and implementing robust test and validation methods to support high-reliability repair operations. You will work cross-functionally to enhance legacy systems, optimize repair processes, and ensure seamless hardware and firmware integration, including advanced display and touchscreen technologies. Requirements: Responsibilities and Duties Reverse engineer multi-layer PCB assemblies, including schematic reconstruction, signal tracing, component identification, testing, and circuit simulation. Apply deep expertise in LCD/LED display systems, touchscreen technologies, and digitizer integration to support design, debugging, and system performance. Reverse engineer products from Original Equipment Manufacturers. Lead root cause analysis and advanced troubleshooting of failed or intermittent boards. Develop automated test setups for diagnostics, board validation, and long-term performance analysis. Redesign and modernize legacy circuit boards using current components while maintaining backward compatibility. Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, and production teams to ensure seamless board-level integration and repair. Mentor junior engineers and technicians on repair techniques, firmware programming, and effective troubleshooting practices. Optimize board repair processes to reduce costs, minimize downtime, and improve first-pass yield rates. Partner with vendors and suppliers to source equivalent or improved component replacements. Provide engineering support for production, service, and field teams during critical failure or redesign projects. Develop comprehensive documentation for reverse-engineered circuits (netlists, BOMs, schematics) and produce clear training materials and step-by-step guides for repair, reprogramming, and requalification of circuit boards. Occasional travel for field testing and product analysis. Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a related field. 4+ years of experience in circuit board reverse engineering, embedded firmware development, and board-level troubleshooting. Proficiency in C and Python for embedded software development on microcontroller platforms (e.g., ARM Cortex-M, STM32, RP2040, ESP32, Microchip PIC). Experience developing and debugging systems using RTOS, device drivers, and low-level hardware interfaces. Proficiency with lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, logic analyzers, and JTAG/debuggers. Hands-on experience with rework stations, including soldering and desoldering of components. Practical experience with communication protocols such as Ethernet, UART, I2C, SPI, CAN, and USB. Ability to create technical documentation to support hardware analysis, redesign, and troubleshooting. Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with a structured approach to failure analysis. Excellent communication and mentoring abilities. Preferred Qualifications: Hands-on, solutions-oriented engineer with a strong passion for diagnosing, repairing, and enhancing legacy electronic systems at the component and system level. Proven ability to perform in fast-paced, high-throughput environments such as repair centers, refurbishment operations, or service organizations, where quality, turnaround time, and customer satisfaction are critical. Experience using project management and collaboration tools (e.g., Gitlab, Wrike) to effectively track tasks, prioritize workloads, and coordinate across cross-functional teams. PI750dd1-
