What are the responsibilities and job description for the Senior Electrical Engineer position at MBS Professional Staffing?
About the role
We’re looking for a hands-on Electrical Engineering Lead to design, develop, and optimize the electronics that power the company’s hardware ecosystem. This role will also involve engineering management of both in-house and outsourced resources. You will work closely with cross-functional teams — including software, project management, and operations — to bring new devices from concept to production.
Responsibilities
- Manage engineering projects as a “player-coach”, doing engineering work yourself while also coordinating in-house and out-sourced resources.
- Design, test, and validate electrical systems for company’s hardware products (e.g., cameras, sensor hubs, data transmission modules).
- Develop and review PCB schematics and layouts.
- Work with firmware and software engineers to integrate hardware functionality and ensure system reliability.
- Prototype and iterate quickly using lab and field testing.
- Collaborate with manufacturing partners to transition designs from prototype to production.
- Troubleshoot and resolve hardware issues across development and deployment stages.
- Support continuous improvement in performance, efficiency, and scalability of existing designs.
- Provide input to the company’s product strategy in improving performance and adding features as well as extending into new markets.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
- 10 years of experience in electronic design and testing (startup or product-focused environment preferred).
- Strong understanding of circuit design, analog/digital systems, and power management.
- Experience with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium, or similar).
- Familiarity with embedded systems, microcontrollers, and firmware integration.
- Solid debugging and troubleshooting skills with oscilloscopes, multimeters, and logic analyzers.
- Excellent communication and documentation abilities.
- Experience in managing or playing a major role in complex engineering projects.
Ideal Skills
- Experience with wireless communication technologies (Wi-Fi, BLE, cellular).
- Knowledge of video systems, sensors, or high-speed data interfaces.
- Familiarity with digital analog signal processing.
- Exposure to environmental or ruggedized hardware design.
- Experience in new product development, taking products from prototype through production at scale.
