Key Responsibilities:
Lead the design and development of electronics hardware for dispenser
platforms, including sensors, actuators, and wireless communication modules.
Select cost-efficient and reliable electronic components tailored for mass
production, ensuring supply-chain resilience.
Design and validate low-power circuit topologies, optimized for battery-
operated devices.
Collaborate with embedded firmware developers to ensure tight integration
between hardware and software platforms.
Participate in the architecture definition and selection of microcontrollers,
sensor types (capacitive, IR, load cells, etc.), and communication protocols (BLE,
NFC, LoRa, etc.).
Develop and review schematics, PCB layouts, and oversee prototype
fabrication and validation.
Perform EMC/EMI considerations, tolerance analysis, and support regulatory
pre-compliance and approvals.
Lead local prototype builds, testing and validation of functional models in
collaboration with industrial design and mechanical engineering.
Document all development activities in line with Ophardt’s global design
control standards, including design specifications, verification plans, and
manufacturing documentation.
Support transfer to production, DFM/DFA reviews, and industrialization
activities with production and procurement teams.
Mentor junior engineers and support technical development within the Ingo
engineering team..
