Senior Electronics Reliability Engineer

 

Gridware is hiring a Senior Electronics Reliability Engineer to drive reliability and failure analysis for our outdoor electronic systems. This role focuses on PCBAs and electronic components, ensuring our products perform reliably in real-world environments over time. 

You’ll work closely with hardware, firmware, and manufacturing teams to identify, debug, and prevent failures at the board and component level. This role emphasizes practical reliability—understanding how electronics fail in the field and using that insight to improve design. 

Analyze and debug board-level failures, identify root causes, and drive corrective actions across design and manufacturing 

Review PCBA designs, layouts, and component selections to identify reliability risks early in development 

Develop and execute reliability and validation plans for PCBAs and electronic assemblies 

Apply reliability methodologies (e.g., DFMEA, DFR, accelerated testing) to identify and mitigate risks 

Investigate field failures and test data to understand failure mechanisms and improve product robustness 

Partner with hardware, firmware, and manufacturing teams to drive reliability improvements from design through production 

Work with external partners (CMs/ODMs, test labs) to validate designs and improve system reliability
