Job description

Design the future of audio! Join Shure’s Audio Electronics Design team as an Engineer Senior, Audio Electronics Design , where you will independently contribute to the design, development, verification, and support of electronic hardware and embedded systems for high-quality professional audio products. In this role, you will work across hardware and software boundaries, developing analog, digital, power, mixed-signal, and embedded system solutions used in products such as wired microphones, wireless microphones, signal processors, conference systems, and related accessories. You will contribute throughout the full product-development process, including system architecture, circuit design, simulation, prototyping, schematic capture, layout, embedded software development, hardware verification, troubleshooting, documentation, and cross-functional technical leadership. The ideal candidate combines strong electrical engineering fundamentals with practical software skills. You should be comfortable working through ambiguity, learning unfamiliar technologies, building prototypes, and finding practical ways to turn ideas into working solutions. This role is well suited for someone who is naturally curious, hands-on, and willing to independently investigate and solve difficult technical problems. This role is based in our Niles, IL headquarters and will be onsite. • Independently design, simulate, prototype, test, and troubleshoot analog, digital, power, mixed-signal, and embedded systems. • Develop PCB assemblies, including schematic design, layout, board bring-up, circuit modification, and verification. • Develop embedded software, scripts, and engineering tools for prototyping, hardware evaluation, test automation, data collection, and troubleshooting. • Contribute to system architecture and make design decisions spanning hardware, software, interfaces, processors, and power systems. • Build prototypes and proof-of-concept systems to evaluate technologies, reduce technical risk, and demonstrate new product solutions. • Lead investigations into complex development, manufacturing, compatibility, performance, and field issues. • Create clear technical documentation, including design specifications, test procedures, verification results, and issue summaries. • Collaborate across hardware, software, mechanical, acoustics, test, manufacturing, quality, sourcing, and compliance teams. • Provide technical guidance, participate in design reviews, and mentor other engineers. • Support manufacturing test, production readiness, and ongoing product support as needed. • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field and a minimum of 5 years of related experience, or an advanced degree with relevant experience. • Demonstrated ability to independently design, prototype, test, and troubleshoot electronic or embedded systems. • Strong knowledge of analog, digital, power, mixed-signal, and embedded circuit design. • Experience with schematic capture, PCB development, board bring-up, circuit simulation, and laboratory test equipment. • Programming or scripting experience in languages such as C, C++, or Python, including software used for embedded development, hardware interaction, test automation, or data analysis. • Experience with embedded systems, communication interfaces, microcontrollers or processors, and hardware/software integration. • Hands-on ability to build, modify, solder, and debug prototype electronics. • Ability to investigate unfamiliar problems, learn new technologies, and turn ideas into practical solutions. • Strong technical communication, documentation, collaboration, and problem-solving skills. • Experience with audio electronics, embedded Linux, or RTOS environments is a plus. Applicants for this position must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. Shure will not sponsor applicants for this position for work visas.
