Staff HW Engineer ~ Lead Us to ATCA & Beyond in Your End-to-End Board-Level HW Design

The senior level hardware engineer looking for the product realization
and true ownership that comes with full end-to-end board-level hardware
design will find it's just one of the benefits of joining an elite
10-person hardware engineering team at RadiSys headquarters in
Hillsboro, Oregon. In this high profile senior staff position, you will
join the first company to release a 10Gb Ethernet ATCA blade and will
help us retain dominance in the design of high performance switching
and processing blades based on this new bus architecture. You will have
an opportunity to lead and get experience on CPUs and chip sets from
Intel, Freescale and Broadcom and immerse yourself in cutting edge
board level designs.

RadiSys Corporation, with its HQ in Hillsboro, Oregon, provides
advanced embedded solutions for the communications networking and
commercial systems markets. Our products include embedded boards,
platforms and systems, which are used in complex computing, processing
and network-intensive applications. We manufacture hardware and
software building blocks that allow our customers to deliver things
like Internet routers, ultrasound machines, magnetic resonance imaging
scanners and other systems. We are publicly traded on the NASDAQ
exchange under the symbol RSYS. Competitive salaries, employer funded
401k plans, bonus incentive, 3 weeks vacation and medical plans are top
notch. We also provide relocation assistance and both H1b and TN visa
transfers are available for qualified candidates. This job is in
Oregon, which most of us think is a great place to work. Hillsboro is
within commute distance from Lake Oswego and Beaverton. Oregon is
unique and putting it into words doesn't do it justice. If you're new
to Oregon or Oregon is new to you, take a look at what's important to
you and talk about it with friends and family - and, of course, with
us. We know that this is only going to work if you and your family are
happy living in a place you love.

As one of our Staff Hardware Engineers your first mission will be
assimilating into the Radisys engineering methodology. The expectation
is that in short order you can hit the ground running from a technical
standpoint and do the technical aspects of your job by and large
without supervision. Here, that translates into full end-to-end
board-level hardware design, from conception to production release of a
physical board product, as you:

* Work with customers or RadiSys marketing to define product
architecture
* Work through design details including reset topology, critical
timing, power budget
* Select components, including CPU, chipset, networking components,
power supplies
* Write a product hardware spec detailing those features and
components that will be used in the design
* Develop a schematic using Cadence Concept
* Work with our CAD or layout engineer (who will use Allegro) on
the physical design, laying traces and placing components on the board
* Define the requirements for testing necessary to prove that the
product meets its specification, and write a detailed verification plan
* Debug prototypes and conduct verification testing in tandem with
other engineers and/or technicians on the team using high speed
oscillosopes, logic analyzers, network analyzers, TDRs, etc.


Your familiarity with high speed design and ability to debug and
address high speed signal integrity problems will be key in becoming a
successful engineer at Radisys.Just as important will be your
effectiveness in dealing with internal customers (system and software
engineering teams) and external customers (clients and vendors) and
navigating crucial issues covering selection of components, project
milestones, cost parameters and deadlines. The challenges abound as do
opportunities to advance your skills by participating at all phases of
the product development lifecycle and putting your personal stamp of
ownership on the products you own.
