Hardware/Electrical Engineer (EE)

About the Role

As a Hardware/Electrical Engineer (EE) for Camera Devices at Naveera, you'll design and bring up the electronics behind our fleet-grade AI camera platform — power, compute, sensors, storage, and connectivity. You'll own board-level decisions from schematic → layout review → prototyping → validation → production support, building reliable devices that survive real-world vehicles (heat, vibration, power transients) while enabling video + AI + telematics at scale.

Responsibilities

• Design and validate camera/telematics electronics: power, compute, sensor interfaces, storage, and connectivity
• Own schematics, component selection, and PCB bring-up for prototype and production revisions
• Review PCB layout for signal integrity, EMI/EMC risk, power integrity, grounding, and thermal constraints
• Develop and execute validation plans: power/transient tests, thermal, vibration, ESD, and long-run reliability
• Integrate and debug subsystems: camera sensors (MIPI CSI-2), ISP, Wi-Fi/LTE, GNSS, IMU, storage (eMMC/SD), audio, and I/O
• Collaborate with firmware/embedded and backend teams on hardware-software integration, diagnostics, and field issue triage
• Support manufacturing readiness: test points, factory test procedures, fixtures, DFM feedback, and yield improvements
• Drive compliance readiness for vehicle and consumer markets (EMI/EMC, FCC/CE, RoHS) alongside partners

Required Qualifications

• 3+ years of electrical engineering experience building embedded hardware products (prototype → production)
• Strong schematic design skills and component selection experience (power, high-speed, RF/connectivity basics)
• Hands-on PCB bring-up and debugging using lab tools (scope, logic analyzer, power supplies, probes)
• Experience with camera or high-bandwidth interfaces (MIPI CSI-2 preferred) and embedded storage (eMMC/SD)
• Comfort with embedded connectivity: LTE/Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, GNSS, and antenna constraints in real enclosures
• Ability to produce clear documentation: block diagrams, bring-up checklists, test plans, and issue reports

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience building vehicle-powered devices (12V/24V), including load dumps, cranking, and power transient protection
• EMI/EMC fundamentals and experience passing FCC/CE pre-scan / compliance testing
• Experience with ruggedization constraints: thermal design, vibration, connector reliability, and IP-rated enclosures
• Familiarity with SoM-based designs (Qualcomm/NXP/NVIDIA/Allwinner/etc.) and vendor reference designs
• Experience partnering with contract manufacturers on EVT/DVT/PVT and factory test development
• Background in video systems: ISP pipelines, camera tuning basics, audio, and multi-camera synchronization
