Senior Hardware Engineer, Linux Platforms
About the role
PTx is investing in next-generation Linux-class hardware across our agriculture technology platform. We are hiring a Hardware Engineer to own Linux-capable embedded boards end-to-end, from schematic capture through PCB layout, for products deployed in demanding off-highway environments. This role anchors our platform-wide Linux hardware roadmap and partners daily with firmware, mechanical, compliance, and test engineering teams based in Tremont, IL.
What you will do
•
Architect and capture schematics for Linux-class embedded boards built around application-class SoCs (NXP i.MX, TI Sitara, or comparable).
•
Perform PCB layout in Altium Designer, including DDR4 routing, high-speed serial (USB 3.x, PCIe, MIPI CSI/DSI, Gigabit Ethernet), and mixed-signal partitioning.
•
Own the power architecture: PMIC selection, rail sequencing, brown-out behavior, and low-noise rail planning for sensitive analog and high-speed digital.
•
Follow design-for-manufacturing (DFM), design-for-test (DFT), and EMC best practices to deliver high-quality production boards.
•
Drive boards from concept to production with minimal respins, balancing design rigor with schedule pressure.
•
Build reusable reference designs and design patterns that accelerate downstream product development across the platform.
Required qualifications
•
BS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent technical degree.
•
3+ years of professional hardware design experience, with at least some years on Linux-class SoC boards.
•
Demonstrated single-owner experience on both schematic capture and PCB layout for production hardware.
