Senior PCB Layout Designer (f/m/d)

As a PCB Layout Designer, you will be responsible for designing high-quality, reliable printed circuit board layouts for advanced electronic systems. You will work closely with hardware engineers, mechanical designers, and manufacturing partners to transform schematics into production-ready PCB designs. The role requires a strong understanding of signal integrity, power distribution, EMI/EMC considerations, and design for manufacturability (DFM). You will contribute throughout the entire product lifecycle, from concept development to series production. Attention to detail and a structured, methodical working style are essential to ensure high-performance and robust designs. In this role, you will help drive innovation by optimizing layouts for performance, cost, and manufacturability. You will also continuously improve design standards, libraries, and internal processes to enhance efficiency and quality.What is your Day to Day Mission:Create complex multi-layer PCB layouts based on electrical schematics and design requirementsCollaborate with hardware engineers to define stack-ups, routing strategies, and design constraintsPerform signal integrity, impedance control, and power integrity considerations during layoutApply EMI/EMC best practices to ensure compliance with regulatory standardsOptimize component placement for thermal performance, mechanical constraints, and manufacturabilityGenerate manufacturing documentation including fabrication and assembly drawingsWork closely with PCB manufacturers and assembly houses to resolve design-related issuesSupport prototype bring-up and assist in debugging layout-related hardware issuesContinuously improve PCB design processes, standards, and documentationWhat you bring to the team:Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a comparable technical fieldSeveral years of experience in PCB layout design for complex electronic systemsProficiency with industry-standard ECAD tools (e.g., Altium Designer, Cadence Allegro, Mentor)Strong understanding of high-speed design, impedance control, and multilayer stack-up designKnowledge of DFM, DFA, and PCB fabrication processesFamiliarity with EMI/EMC guidelines and regulatory requirementsAbility to interpret schematics and collaborate effectively with hardware engineersStructured, detail-oriented working style with strong problem-solving skillsGood communication skills and ability to work in cross-functional teamsFluent in English (German is a plus)Why Quantum-Systems:We believe in the power of combined efforts: straightforward tech expertise paired with a customer-centric focus.We are industry pioneers who are ambitious, bold, and visionary. We push limits, think outside-the-box and strive for technological excellence to shape the future of aerial data.We promise to be your runway for individual and professional growth.Our benefits:Company pension scheme: We support you so that you can already make provisions for later.Flexible working hours: With trust-based working hours, you are not only responsible for your working hours, but also for your work-life balance.Bike-Leasing: We support you in staying environmentally mobile and healthy.Corporate Benefits: Your opportunity for attractive offers and discounts from well-known suppliers and brands, e.g. Adidas, Apple, Expedia.Employee events: We not only want to grow together, but also celebrate our successes together.Lunch-Card: Be powerful with delicious energy, daily lunch budget is sponsored.Company Shuttle: Enjoy our convenient shuttle service that picks you up from Pasing in Munich and brings you to our location, with return trips at the end of the workday.About us:Quantum Systems specialises in the development, design, and production of small Unmanned Aerial Systems (sUAS). The company’s range of electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) sUAS are built to maximize range and versatility and to provide operators with a seamless user experience. By integrating cutting-edge software capabilities, like edge computing and real-time AI-powered data processing, Quantum Systems is building next-generation UAS for clients in defence, security, public sectors.Our commitment:We are an open-minded company that not only values diversity, but actively promotes it. Regardless of gender, age, ethnic origin, religion, sexual orientation or disability, we firmly believe that the diversity of our employees is an essential part of our success.At our company, every voice is heard and every perspective is valued. We believe that our differences enrich us and help us to find creative solutions and generate innovative ideas. We pride ourselves on creating an inclusive work environment where all employees can reach their full potential.Find Jobs in Germany on Arbeitnow
