Job description
You are hiring a senior\-level hardware design engineer who specializes in EMC troubleshooting and isolated PoE power design for networking and wireless products.
This is a hands\-on design role, not a compliance test operator.
Atheer ACT is a Saudi deep\-tech telecommunications company building carrier\-grade 60 GHz and mmWave wireless infrastructure for high\-throughput backhaul and enterprise connectivity.
**What they will do**
This engineer will be responsible for diagnosing and fixing a live EMC compliance failure on the PoE port of an outdoor wireless radio product. Their work will directly impact the success of the current certification cycle.
Key responsibilities include:
* Analyze EMC failure plots and identify root causes quickly.
* Redesign isolated PoE PD converters (IEEE 802\.3bt Type 3/4\).
* Design and tune magnetics: flyback transformers, common\-mode chokes, isolation barriers.
* Optimize PCB layout for EMC performance: grounding, isolation, filter placement.
* Reduce conducted emissions on telecom ports (CISPR 32 / EN 55032 using ISN).
* Guide the product through full EMC certification, including retests.
* Work closely with hardware, RF, and compliance teams to implement fixes fast.
This is a hands\-on design role, not a lab technician role.
**Requirements**
Must\-have experience* 8\+ years of experience designing PoE power stages, solving EMC failures, and shipping telecom or networking hardware through certification.
* Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field; equivalent hands\-on design experience will be considered equally.
* Isolated PoE PD converter design compliant with IEEE 802\.3bt Type 3 or Type 4\.
* Flyback topology design and transformer construction.
* Common\-mode choke selection under DC bias.
* CISPR 32 / EN 55032 conducted emissions testing on telecom ports using ISN.
* PCB layout for EMC performance, including grounding, isolation, and filter placement.
Nice to have* mmWave / 60 GHz / IEEE 802\.11ad/ay wireless product experience.
* 10GBASE\-T PHY experience.
* Radiated emissions and immunity testing for outdoor equipment, including ESD and surge.
* Open to onsite or hybrid work arrangements.
* Immediate start availability.
**Benefits**
Will be determined later on based on the experience.
