- Debug designs, propose fixes and take ownership of testing and PCB validation
- Support power converter, battery management and electronic design projects
- Assist with cost optimisation, automated test setups and production ramp-up
- Contribute to continuous improvements and future product iterations
Requirements
- Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, Mechatronics or a related field
