Ideal Company Type
I am interested in the ongoing development of the electronic boards that are found in most contemporary devices. Being assigned to a company whose main industry is related to Printed Circuit Board (PCB) design would meet my objectives. The art of creating of schematics for the electronic boards and their layouts is what I would like to learn more about and a company that works and develops such things will meet my interest.
