Careers
We are always looking for experienced engineers in the areas of applications software, embedded software, digital electronics, and analog electronics.
We've done many different types of designs and we’ve worked with large companies as well as startups. Most of our work involves embedded systems that run on custom electronics that we design. Also, we do a significant amount of medical device design.
Because we do contract design for other companies, a very significant portion of our job is actually product design. We do complete product design by partnering with an industrial design firm and a contract manufacturer. As our company has grown, the projects have become increasingly more interesting. You can look at other pages on our website to see some of them.
People enjoy the work environment. We have great benefits. While we do some on-site work, the majority of our work is done right in our offices. We are a small company so you will have influence over the design and have some customer contact.
As far as employment goes, we don't use contractors. All of our employees are permanent. In order to have an effective crew we need to know each other pretty well and permanent employees seem to work best. We would prefer full time; however, a really qualified part-timer would be considered.
Advanced degrees are not really a hard requirement. In fact, the person could get one while they work for us if they like. We are most interested in engineers that are inquisitive, "life long learners." We need people that are practical but are not afraid to apply theory to the problem. Cracking a book or application note to learn more about something is what we expect.
Regarding experience, it is rare that a person out of school has enough skill to walk right in and be productive in a few short months. We're looking for someone who is smart, has a fine work ethic, and that has been out of school for anywhere from a couple of years on.
We are looking for breadth of experience. An example would be somebody who can do analog and digital or digital and firmware or firmware and application software. This is one of our strong points cause we don't pigeon hole somebody into a particular area. You can move around and do different things to stay interested. One of my engineers said in a recent review "this is the hardest but most rewarding job I've ever had."
