Industries We Serve

Consumer Electronics

Smartphones & Wearables rely on lightning-fast PCB iterations. Outstaffing Hire PCB Designer talent lets electronics brands handle dense multilayer layouts, RF shielding, and high-speed routing without inflating internal teams. Engineers optimise power integrity, reduce EMI, and work alongside firmware squads, accelerating time-to-market for every new gadget release while maintaining strict DFM and regulatory standards.

Automotive EV

Electric Vehicle platforms demand rugged, high-current PCB Design for battery management systems, inverters, and ADAS sensors. Our outstaffed PCB Design engineers integrate seamlessly with in-house mechanical and safety teams, delivering ISO 26262-compliant boards, optimising thermal paths, and supporting rapid prototype spins to win in the hyper-competitive EV landscape.

MedTech Devices

FDA-regulated medical electronics require traceable layouts and tight component spacing. Outstaffing with Hire PCB Designer provides specialists versed in IEC 60601 and biocompatible materials, securing faster 510(k) approvals and de-risking patient-critical circuitry without ballooning fixed payroll.

Industrial IoT

Factory automation systems use robust PCBs for sensors, gateways, and edge AI. Augmented PCB Design engineers craft shock-resistant, extended-temperature boards, embed secure communication modules, and iterate quickly so OEMs can deploy Industry 4.0 solutions ahead of schedule.

Aerospace & Defense

Mission-critical avionics need mil-spec PCBs with impedance-controlled traces and redundant power rails. Our cleared PCB Design talent handles ITAR documentation, stack-up simulation, and vibration analysis, giving primes the flexibility to surge capacity during peak bid seasons.

Telecom Infrastructure

5G base-stations and optical transport gear require high-frequency PCB layouts up to 32 GHz. Outstaffing PCB Design engineers skilled in SI/PI analysis shaves months off rollout schedules while keeping CapEx predictable for network operators.

Renewable Energy

Solar inverters & wind turbines count on high-voltage PCBs. Hire PCB Designer outstaffing supplies engineers who enforce wide-creepage rules, optimise thermal vias, and deliver cost-efficient, UL-ready layouts that boost power-conversion efficiency.

Robotics

Autonomous platforms integrate motor drivers, sensors, and control logic on compact boards. Augmented PCB Design engineers iterate ROS-compatible hardware fast, keeping robot startups agile without tying up capital in full-time salaries.

Semiconductor Test

ATE and validation rigs require dense, precision PCBs. Outstaffed Hire PCB Designer professionals produce high-pin-count probe boards, guarantee signal integrity, and reduce spin counts, helping chipmakers meet tape-out dates.

Client Testimonials

Smartbattery Inc. cut our PCB Design hiring from 6 weeks to 4 days. The outstaffed engineer optimised BMS layouts, passed UL first try, and boosted throughput 30 %. Integration was seamless; their Slack-first culture mirrored ours perfectly.

Rebecca Hayes

CTO

Smartbattery Inc.

MedWave Devices needed IEC 60601 expertise fast. smartbrain.io delivered a senior PCB Designer who owned the compliance matrix and freed our core team for R&D. Productivity jumped 22 % during the pilot run.

Carlos Turner

R&D Director

MedWave Devices

Launching a 5G micro-cell, we faced SI issues. The smartbrain.io engineer performed impedance tuning and shaved two board spins, saving $60k and a month in schedule. Onboarding took literally one afternoon.

Stacey Miller

Hardware Lead

Wavegrid Networks

Our robotics startup scaled from prototype to pre-series. Outstaffed PCB Design engineers added CAN-FD support and harmonised with firmware sprints. Velocity doubled without bloating burn rate.

Ethan Brooks

Founder & CEO

AxisBotics

Aerospace bids spike unpredictably. smartbrain.io’s cleared PCB talent joined under ITAR NDAs, delivered HDI avionics boards, and let us flex headcount post-bid—zero payroll hangover.

Linda Chen

Program Manager

SkyFront Avionics

With silicon delays, every week counts. smartbrain.io sourced a signal-integrity guru who re-routed DDR4 and cut eye-diagram failures by 80 %. Quality went up while my team slept thanks to timezone advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the true cost to hire PCB Design engineers through smartbrain.io versus in-house?

When you Hire PCB Designer talent via smartbrain.io you only pay for productive, billable hours. There are no recruiter commissions, onboarding overhead, or idle-time salaries. Our blended hourly rates already include payroll taxes, benefits, workspace, equipment, and local compliance. Compared with a U.S. full-time senior PCB engineer (≈$170k base + 25 % burden), most clients save 30-50 % annually while still accessing top-tier, pre-vetted specialists. Plus, you avoid opportunity costs linked to a 6-12-week hiring cycle; with smartbrain.io your board layout work starts in days, accelerating revenue recognition.

How does smartbrain.io secure intellectual property when I outstaff PCB Design work?

Every engagement begins with a mutual NDA and strict Master Service Agreement. Engineers contractually assign all work-product IP to you, and they operate within segregated VPNs and version-control repositories. smartbrain.io audits access logs, enforces endpoint encryption, and maintains SOC 2-compliant infrastructure. Because the PCB Design data never leaves secured cloud environments, IPO-bound clients confidently outsource without fear of leakage.

Can outstaffed PCB Design engineers work in my time zone?

Yes. Our bench spans Americas, EMEA, and APAC. During discovery we map your preferred overlap window; then we shortlist candidates willing to align 4–6 core hours with your team. For 24/7 coverage, we staff follow-the-sun pairs so routing, DRC, and Gerber review continue while your in-house staff rests.

What contract terms are available—do I have to lock in long-term?

Contracts are month-to-month by default. Need a sprint of just eight weeks? No problem. Want a 12-month extension? We’ll renew at the same rate. You can scale headcount up or down with 10-day notice thanks to our flexible augmentation model, eliminating the liabilities of permanent employment.

How are PCB Design candidates vetted before they reach my desk?

smartbrain.io uses a four-stage process: automated Altium/OrCAD skill tests, live schematic-to-layout challenge, soft-skill interview, and final cultural fit screening. Only the top 2 % pass. You receive detailed scorecards plus recorded sessions, ensuring you Hire PCB Designer talent with proven, measurable expertise.

What if the assigned engineer is not the right fit after onboarding?

We provide a replacement guarantee. Notify your account manager within 10 business days and we’ll swap the engineer at no cost, generally within 72 hours. Because our bench is deep, your project momentum stays intact.

How soon can my project start after the initial call?

Most clients schedule the discovery call today and review shortlists within 48 hours. Interviews follow immediately; typical kickoff is day 4–5, far faster than in-house recruiting. This rapid start lets your PCB Design sprints begin while competitors are still drafting job ads.
