Electronics Design Recruitment · Greater Boston
Specialist recruitment for schematics, component selection, PCB design, board bring-up and product validation. Led by an engineer who understands the engineering behind the hire.
RunTime clarifies the engineering requirements, searches for relevant candidates, assesses their technical experience and delivers a focused shortlist for an individual role or defined search.
Discuss a specialist hireLance can work inside your hiring operation, collaborating with engineering managers and using your ATS and company email where agreed. This recruitment delivery model can support wider engineering hiring alongside electronics design roles.

Analog, digital, RF and power design require different depth. An electronics search is defined around the circuits and product responsibilities the engineer will actually own.
Requirements, calculations, component selection and design review.
Layout decisions, signal integrity, grounding and hardware interfaces.
Measurement, fault isolation and hardware/firmware collaboration.
Environmental, EMC, manufacturing and production-test considerations.
For Boston employers
We clarify the circuit domains, design stage, interfaces, regulatory context, manufacturing needs and ownership from schematic through validation.
Candidate discussions explore calculations, component choices, layout influence, bring-up method, instrument use and evidence of taking hardware toward manufacture.
RunTime searches and directly approaches engineers whose experience aligns with the brief, then presents a focused shortlist with evidence, gaps and practical details.
Founder-led technical recruitment
Before recruitment, Lance Harvie developed electronics and firmware for industrial equipment, gaming systems and telecommunications products. He later built decades of specialist recruitment experience.
That background informs the questions RunTime asks about ownership, engineering decisions and fault investigation. It does not replace the client’s detailed technical interview.
RunTime Recruitment has operated since 2019.

Boston engineering context
Relevant local themes: robotics, connected devices, sensing, product engineering.
MassRobotics maps a Greater Boston ecosystem spanning robotics, connected devices, sensors, components and supporting manufacturing. That breadth creates engineering requirements across electronics, embedded computing, controls and system validation.
This is local industry context, not a claim that every organization is hiring or that RunTime has recruited for organizations named by the source.

For Electronics Design engineers
Share your resume and the type of work you want to do. Include your preferred working arrangement, location or relocation constraints, and the parts of the development lifecycle you have personally owned.
Submit your resumeFrequently asked questions
No. Analog, RF, power and digital hardware are not treated as interchangeable. The product and immediate design responsibilities determine the evidence required.
Yes. RunTime documents the employer’s actual working arrangement and presents it clearly. Onsite, hybrid and remote preferences are not treated as interchangeable.
Relocation can form part of the search where the employer is open to it. Interest, timing and practical constraints are confirmed with each candidate. No relocation or work-authorisation outcome is assumed.
It is designed for a wider or recurring hiring plan where recruitment continuity matters. It is a delivery model, not a reference to embedded software engineering, and its agreed scope can support electronics design and related engineering roles.
