About the role
We are the hardware engineering group that designs and implements embedded systems (meters) for collecting TV tuning and TV viewing data. Our team’s responsibilities include electrical schematic design, circuit board layout, and enclosure mechanical design. We use contract manufacturers to build prototypes and production meters. Typical meter designs consist of a single main board with a dozen or more integrated circuits (BGA, QFP, TDFN, SOT, etc) and related passive components. Our designs range in size from rack mount equipment to devices as small as a wrist watch. We design and create automated manufacturing test systems that incorporate various instruments such as optical detectors, power supplies, DVMs, RF generators, and frequency converters. These test systems are used to validate newly manufactured equipment.
Key Responsibilities
The PLM Coordinator will focus on keeping new and existing product hardware configurations, documents, and system processes current and consistent. This person will work with engineers to manage day-to-day product lifecycle activities in support of Operations, Product Development, and Manufacturing. Typical activities include; working with the engineers to maintain Nielsen’s component AVL, processing engineering change orders, creating new part numbers, storing and maintaining regulatory documentation, electrical schematics, mechanical drawings, and bill of materials as well as preparing build packages for Nielsen’s contract manufacturers.
