Skills to tag: PCB Design, Altium Designer, KiCad, Signal Integrity, Hardware
Project type: One-time project
Experience level: Expert

Description:

I need an experienced PCB layout designer to finish routing a nearly-complete 8-layer board. Placement is final and the board is ~94% routed; I need a professional to close the remaining nets and correct a layer-discipline issue in proper PCB CAD (Altium, KiCad, or equivalent).

Current state:

8-layer stackup, ~180 × 120 mm, 132 components, all placed (placement is final and will not change)
~2,216 of ~2,350 connections routed; ~135 nets remain open
The prior tool placed signal traces on two dedicated ground-plane layers (L2 and L7). These must be moved to signal layers so L2/L7 are solid, uninterrupted ground.

Scope of work:

Import the existing design (netlist + placement + stackup; format TBD with you — netlist, KiCad, ODB++, or IPC-2581)
Enforce layer discipline as a hard rule: L2/L7 ground only, L4/L5 power only, L1/L3/L6/L8 signal only
Move the signal copper currently on L2/L7 onto signal layers
Route the ~135 remaining nets holding controlled impedance: 85 Ω (PCIe), 100 Ω (Gigabit Ethernet / board-to-board pairs), 90 Ω (USB), 50 Ω (eMMC); intra-pair skew ≤5 mil
Apply defined neckdown / pin-entry exceptions on specific connector pins (documented; I'll provide)
Run DRC to zero errors and deliver a clean, fabrication-ready board

Deliverables:

Fully routed board, DRC-clean, in your CAD tool's native format plus standard fab outputs (Gerbers/ODB++ or IPC-2581, drill files, netlist, BOM cross-check)
Confirmation that L2 and L7 are 100% signal-free ground planes
Short notes on any changes made

Required experience:

Multilayer (6+ layer) controlled-impedance PCB layout — please show examples
Fluent in a professional PCB CAD tool (Altium strongly preferred; KiCad acceptable)
High-reliability / industrial / avionics-grade board experience a strong plus
Comfortable importing a design from another tool and finishing it (not starting from scratch)

To apply, please tell me:

Which CAD tool you'll use
A multilayer impedance-controlled board you've routed (portfolio or description)
Your estimate of hours and turnaround for the scope above
Whether you've imported designs from another tool into your CAD before

This is a well-defined finishing task on a complete, reviewed design — not a from-scratch project. The hard engineering is done; I need a skilled router to close it out correctly.

Fixed price Expert Est. budget: $500.00

Example Cover Letter

Hello — I can finish this board to a clean, fabrication-ready state.

Quick summary of what I’ll deliver
- Import the existing design into Altium Designer (preferred) or KiCad (if you prefer). I can accept netlist+placement+stackup, ODB++, or IPC‑2581.
- Enforce layer discipline as hard rules (L2/L7 = solid GND; L4/L5 = power; L1/L3/L6/L8 = signal).
- Move any signal copper currently on L2/L7 to the designated signal layers, preserving impedance and clearance constraints.
- Route the remaining ~135 nets to meet the specified controlled impedances (85 Ω PCIe, 100 Ω GbE, 90 Ω USB, 50 Ω eMMC) and hold intra-pair skew ≤ 5 mil.
- Apply documented neckdown / pin-entry exceptions for connectors.
- Run full DRC until zero errors and deliver native CAD files + standard fabrication outputs (Gerbers/ODB++ or IPC‑2581, drill, netlist, BOM cross-check).
- Short notes summarizing the changes and confirmation that L2/L7 are 100% signal-free ground planes.

Which CAD tool I’ll use
- Primary: Altium Designer (preferred) — I’ll deliver the final project in Altium native format plus your requested fab outputs. If you prefer KiCad, I can work there instead, but Altium is my default for complex multilayer controlled-impedance boards.

Relevant experience / portfolio (examples you can adapt)
- Multilayer controlled-impedance boards: I’ve completed multiple 6–12 layer boards for industrial and telecom applications with PCIe Gen3/Gen4 lanes, 1/2.5/10 Gbit Ethernet channels, USB3, eMMC/UFS, and high-pin-count BGAs. Example: routed an 8-layer industrial controller with PCIe x4 (85 Ω), dual GbE (100 Ω), USB3 (90 Ω) and eMMC (50 Ω); ensured intra-pair skew below 4 mil and delivered DRC-clean files for production. (Portfolio & screenshots: [insert link to PCB portfolio or attach files])
- High-reliability work: experience with industrial and avionics-style processes (tight DFM/DFR, documentation, and change-control).
- Importing and finishing: routinely import ODB++, IPC‑2581, and vendor netlists into Altium and KiCad, reconcile differences, and finish layouts started in other tools.

Estimate of hours and turnaround
- Best estimate: 14–26 hours total depending on complexity found during import (split below).
- Import, file reconciliation, rule + stackup verification: 1–3 h
- Layer discipline cleanup and moving copper off of L2/L7: 4–8 h
- Routing remaining ~135 nets (controlled impedance and skew control): 6–12 h
- DRC iterations, fixes, outputs, documentation: 2–3 h
- Typical turnaround: 2–5 business days from receiving files and connector-exception documentation. If the file import is straightforward, I can aim for 48–72 hours.

Rates / pricing
- I can work hourly (my rate is $[your hourly rate]) or provide a fixed-price quote after I review the actual files. If you’d like a fixed bid, please upload the PCB files and the connector-exception doc and I’ll give a firm price.

Questions I have before starting
1. Which CAD format will you provide (Altium project, KiCad, ODB++, IPC‑2581, or netlist + placement + stackup)? Please attach.
2. Please share the exact stackup and Cu thickness data, or confirm it’s already in the provided files.
3. Please send the documented neckdown/pin-entry exceptions for connectors.
4. Any highest-priority nets or routing preferences (e.g., keep certain signal groups on specific layers)?
5. Do you require fabricator-specific constraints or a designated fab house?

Process & communication
- I’ll start with a short import/validation pass and send a quick status note with any issues found before making layout changes.
- I’m happy to run a short review call when needed and can sign an NDA if you require.

If this sounds good, please upload the project files (preferred: Altium project or IPC‑2581/ODB++) and the connector exceptions and I’ll begin the import/estimate review immediately.

Job Details

About Us
We're a managed IT and cybersecurity services company supporting small and mid-sized businesses. Our L1/L2 team handles the bulk of daily tickets and our L3 engineers are deep in project work — we need another senior resource we can pull in for escalations when the queue demands it.

The Role
This is not a full-time, always-on position. You'd be an hourly escalation resource for tickets that need senior-level troubleshooting. Some weeks that might be 10 hours, other weeks it might be zero. You need to be able to pick up a ticket with context from our team, diagnose efficiently, and resolve — or clearly communicate what you found and what the path forward looks like.

Just as importantly, this is a client-facing role. You'll occasionally need to get on a call with a business owner or C-Suite executive to explain what's happening, what you're doing about it, and why it matters to their business. We need someone who can translate technical problems into business language and make our clients feel confident they're in good hands.

What You'd Be Working On
Escalated troubleshooting across Windows Server, Active Directory, and Group Policy environments
Microsoft 365 administration — Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams, Entra ID — beyond basic user management

Intune/Endpoint Manager for device configuration, compliance policies, and troubleshooting
Networking: firewall rules, VPN connectivity, DNS/DHCP, VLAN and switching issues

Azure and hybrid cloud — VM troubleshooting, Entra Connect sync issues, conditional access policies
Backup and disaster recovery troubleshooting
Helping our team think through an approach before they start, not just cleaning up after

What We're Looking For

5+ years in an MSP or similar multi-client environment — you need to be comfortable context-switching across client environments and toolsets

Strong hands-on experience with Microsoft 365 admin, Entra ID, Intune, Windows Server, and core networking
Experience working in NinjaOne RMM (or a comparable RMM — we'll get you up to speed on ours)
Familiarity with PatchMyPC or similar third-party patch management tooling

Excellent verbal and written communication — you'll speak directly with clients, including executives, and need to frame technical issues in terms of business impact and outcomes
Business-aware thinking: you understand that a ticket isn't just a technical problem, it's something standing between a client and their goals

Documents what you did and why — our team learns from your escalations
Self-directed. We hand you a ticket with context, not a step-by-step playbook

Nice to Have

Experience with EDR/MDR platforms
PowerShell scripting for diagnostics or automation
Relevant certs (AZ-104, MS-102, CCNA, etc.) — not required, but they help tell the story

Logistics

Hourly, flexible engagement — no guaranteed minimums, no set schedule
Tickets come in via our PSA with context from our L1/L2 team
Must be US-based in Eastern or Central time zone — we need overlapping business hours and quick response times
This can grow if the fit is right

Hourly: $45.00 - $60.00 Expert Est. time: More than 6 months, 30+ hrs/week

Example Cover Letter

Hi — I’m very interested in this flexible escalation engineer role. I’ve worked 6+ years in MSP environments as a senior escalation/resource engineer and regularly step into tickets across multiple clients, diagnose quickly, remediate, and hand clear next steps and documentation to the tier teams.

Why I’m a fit
- Hands-on with Windows Server, Active Directory, Group Policy and AD replication troubleshooting.
- Deep Microsoft 365 experience: Exchange Online, SharePoint, Teams and Entra ID (including Entra Connect sync and conditional access).
- Intune/Endpoint Manager: device configuration, compliance policies, policy troubleshooting and automation via PowerShell when needed.
- Networking: firewall rules, site-to-site and client VPNs, DNS/DHCP, VLANs and switching issues.
- Azure & hybrid cloud: VM troubleshooting, identity sync, hybrid join and conditional access scenarios.
- Backup/DR experience and troubleshooting recoveries and retention issues.
- Familiar with RMM/PSA workflows (I’ve used NinjaOne and comparable tools) and third-party patch tools like PatchMyPC.
- Comfortable client-facing: I translate technical issues into business impact for owners and execs and keep stakeholders informed.
- I document the “what I did and why” so your L1/L2 team learns from escalations and future incidents are handled faster.

How I work
- I pick up tickets with context, triage quickly, escalate appropriately, and either resolve or deliver a clear remediation plan and next steps.
- Self-directed: I’ll propose an approach before executing and leave detailed notes for the team.
- US-based, Eastern time (or Central overlap), available for rapid response during business hours. Flexible hourly engagement — some weeks light, others busier — and able to scale if the relationship grows.

Rate & next step
- My typical hourly rate is $95/hr (negotiable depending on volume and scope).
- I’d be happy to take a short paid test escalation or jump on a 15–20 minute call to review your PSA/RMM setup and expectations. Please let me know a time that works or share a sample ticket and I’ll respond with a proposed triage plan.

Thanks — I look forward to the possibility of helping your team with escalations and improving client outcomes.
