PCB Design - IR LED Tracking Marker - Self contained
Budget: $250 – $750 NZD
We are looking for an experienced electronics / PCB design engineer to design a self-contained IR LED tracking marker for a computer-vision system.
The project involves designing a long, thin custom PCB populated with up to ~50 independently controlled 850 nm IR LEDs, mounted in multiple orientations (up, down, and side-facing). Each LED must emit its own unique repeating blink pattern, with all LEDs synchronised at power-up. The board must operate from a single 5 V supply, with all control electronics integrated on the PCB (no external controller during operation).
Scope includes schematic design, PCB layout (dense routing), component selection, BOM creation, and preparation of manufacturing files suitable for PCBway assembly. A method for programming/updating the LED patterns via onboard pads or test points is required.
This is a hardware-focused role suited to engineers with experience in dense LED layouts, timing-sensitive designs, and manufacturable PCB development.
