Component Modelling Engineer - AI

This is a remote-first role, enabling candidates from anywhere to apply, ideally working around GMT-0 (UK) hours to better connect with the team!

About the Company

Electronic circuit boards are at the core of current and future inventions - space travel, medical robotics, autonomous transportation, augmented reality, bio-engineering. Yet today designing an electronic circuit board is an extremely manual, long and tedious process. At Circuit Mind we believe that this is wrong and we are on a mission to fix it, triggering the future of hardware design. To achieve its mission, Circuit Mind has created a library of electronic component digital twins. Each digital twin models the data of the component’s datasheet. These digital twins are then utilised by Circuit Mind’s platform to generate circuit designs that align with user specifications. We are creating an entirely new software engine for circuit boards, that takes as inputs the requirements of a circuit board and automatically outputs a complete design, ready for manufacture.

About the Role

We are hiring a Circuit Design Engineer (AI) to join our Library Team on a mission to create an unprecedented database of electronic components. Each entry in the database contains full information about an electronic component. This is crucial for Circuit Mind's wider mission to fuel the next wave of hardware inventions.

Responsibilities

• Rapidly create high-quality electronic component models by using our cutting edge AI powered software.
• Validate data extracted by our preprocessing algorithms.
• Collaborate with the rest of the library engineering team to devise clever ways to model novel electronic components.
• Inform the work of the internal software development team in order to enable faster and more reliable digital twin creation processes.
• Provide input into the way components are represented:

• Report component features that are not currently in our representation.
• Provide ideas on simplifying the current abstractions.

Qualifications

• Degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering.
• A minimum of 3 years of professional experience in electronics circuit design.

Required Skills

• Proficiency in selecting components for analogue, digital and mixed signal circuit boards.
• Knowledge of schematic design principles for analogue, digital and mixed signal circuit boards.
• Experience with at least one professional electronic CAD software package (Mentor, Cadence, Altium, Zuken) and willingness to learn others.
• Ability to work productively in a team.
• Ability to use Excel.

Preferred Skills

• Experience in schematic capture and/or component selection for relatively complex circuit boards: 100+ components, 4+ layers, high-speed digital signals, sensitive analog components.
• Experience in circuit analysis such as timing analysis, transient analysis, DC operating point calculations.
• Experience in circuit simulation and/or modelling.
• Knowledge of PCB layout principles for analogue, digital and mixed signal circuit boards.
• Experience with creating and verifying component symbols and footprints.

Pay range and compensation package

• Salary: £18,000-£40,000 depending on seniority and geography.
• Collaboration with a London based world-class team.
• 25 days of annual holidays plus bank holidays.
• London Bridge office.
• Extended parental leave.
• Learning and development budget to support your professional development.
• Access to Circuit Mind’s cutting edge EDA platform.

We are hiring for a full-time employee in the UK or a contractor outside the UK.
