Job Description

As an EMC Design Engineer focused on Wearable Technology, you will drive the electromagnetic compatibility of next-generation consumer products by developing and validating design solutions from prototype to high-volume production. You will partner closely with multidisciplinary teams to ensure compliance, elevate design quality, and solve complex EMC challenges for wearable electronics.

Responsibilities

• Lead grounding and shielding architecture for wearable systems, aligning product constraints with international EMC compliance standards.
• Develop and maintain EMC and ESD design specifications, guidelines, and risk management strategies in partnership with cross-functional teams.
• Integrate and optimize diverse components—such as sensors, wireless charging modules, and advanced PCBs—within the system architecture to meet electromagnetic performance requirements.
• Design and analyze ESD protection strategies, including component selection and circuit implementation for consumer electronics.
• Conduct, document, and troubleshoot system-level ESD and EMC testing per IEC 61000-4-2 and related international standards.
• Define and execute comprehensive EMC validation plans, employ simulation methodologies, and correlate simulation outcomes with laboratory measurements.
• Analyze field and laboratory data to identify root causes of EMC/ESD issues; drive corrective actions to closure through design modification and process improvements.
• Manage and prioritize multiple engineering projects, collaborating with internal teams, technicians, and external vendors for effective delivery.

Minimum Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related technical field, or equivalent practical experience.
• 8+ years’ hands-on experience in EMC design, including measurement and debugging for electronic devices.
• Expertise in system-level ESD protection and testing; skilled in ESD failure mechanisms and in the use of ESD guns.
• Comprehensive knowledge of electromagnetic theory and application, especially grounding and shielding in consumer electronics.
• Familiarity with design and manufacturing of PCBs and flexible circuits for wearable or mobile devices.
• Demonstrated success participating in full product development lifecycles, from concept and prototyping through mass manufacturing.

Preferred Qualifications

• Master’s or PhD in Electrical Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, or closely related field.
• Over 10 years of advanced EMC design and testing experience in high-reliability consumer or wearable electronics.
• Proficiency with EM diagnostic and test instruments such as near field scanners, spectrum/network analyzers, and high-bandwidth oscilloscopes.
• Deep understanding of power delivery design, EMI suppression techniques, and RF desensitization in complex architectures.
• Advanced expertise in magnetic shielding methodologies and in managing noise/vibration for optimized system performance.
