Job Description

Danfoss is proud to be one of the world\'s leading businesses in design and manufacture of reliable industrial amplifier card control board and proportional valves. As a result of our ongoing growth and expansion, we are now seeking to recruit a Senior Electronics Engineer to join our Industrial Motion Control division.

As a Senior Electronics Engineer, you\'ll use your with experience within electronics, mechatronics design and controls to play a key role in the design and development of next-generation products and control algorithms for industrial proportional valves and directional valves testing for critical applications. You\'ll work as part of a cross-functional team of product experts and specialists, and play a leading part in the full product life cycle from concept and design validation through to full volume manufacture.

This role is based at our flagship plant in Havant, Hampshire, UK (PO9 2NB).

Job Responsibilities

As Senior Electronics Engineer you will be designing and developing innovative, cost-effective and reliable electronics and controls for our proportional valves, working with integrated product development teams across our global business.

You\'ll be collaborating with a variety of functions including New Product Development, Product Maintenance, manufacturing, quality assurance and others working across our growing industrial valve product operation.

Our products are used primarily in industrial hydraulic machines, meaning we face regular technical challenges such as robust EMC requirements, functional safety, and harsh environmental conditions such as vibration and temperature.

Responsibilities for this role include:

• Preparing designs, specifications, analysis, and recommendations for development of electronics control boards for new and existing products.
• Supporting new product development, product maintenance, and offering problem-solving inputs both supplier and manufacturing functions.
• Collaborating with project teams to review customer specifications and developing concepts for new industrial valve electronics and amplifier card products.
• Participating and presenting results in the technical peer reviews to ensure optimal solutions is implemented.
• Advanced troubleshooting and analysis and developing creative solutions to both resolve complex development and field issues and to improve overall product performance.
• Offering technical advice and assistance to other product development colleagues regarding, specification, information sources and testing procedures.

You will be part of the complete product development cycle and alongside our test engineers also oversee testing of the products developed. Our development cycle is certified and hence you will also be creating documentation of designs, design journals, DFMEA\'s, test reports, simulation reports etc. For schematic design & PCB layout you will be using different tools.

Background & Skills

As our Senior Electronics Engineer you\'ll hold a degree in engineering, electronics, mechatronics, embedded electronics or similar relevant subject, along with relevant experience of electronics development for industrial applications.

Advantageous, although not essential would be:

• Master\'s degree with focus on electronics, mechatronics, embedded electronics or similar. Experience with communication protocols like CANBus, Ethernet, ProfiNet, EtherCAT & Electronics PCB manufacturing, testing will be advantage.
• Power electronics, PCB Designing, Component engineering, EMI/EMC testing and simulation
• Experience of full hardware development life cycle including requirements management, design, development, verification & validation, qualification & certification testing
• Experience on hardware architecture design, feature & performance specifications, 16/32-bit Microcontrollers based designs and various testing for Conducted Emissions / Immunity, Radiated Emissions / Immunity, Environmental testing
• Hands on experience in Linear, SMPS, signal conditioning and driver circuit design & testing, strong knowledge of EMI / EMC certification and environmental compliances - CE, UKCA markings process. Good Knowledge of IEC, CISPR, ISO, SAE standards.
• Experience of various communication protocols- CAN, RS232, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, wireless etc, knowledge on PCB design guidelines for SI, high speed design & EMI/EMC. Design for functional safety (IEC 61508), working experience on analogue and digital hardware design, circuit simulations using PSpice & LTspice tools.
• Capability to analyse analogue and digital circuits for functional, performing FMEAs, Stress, Derating, Worst-case & Tolerance analysis
