Brad,

In 1978 I worked with Dave Helm at Floating Point Systems in Beaverton,
Oregon. He use to say that there were TWO kinds of PCB Designers:

        1) the kind who DESIGN boards

and...

        2) the kind who HOOK 'EM UP

Subject: [DC] Difference between PCB designer and PCB design Engineer

All,

        I am in debate with my Director, who is/was a mechanical Engineer,
over what the difference is between these two job descriptions.  I believe
some
of our designers do the job design engineer and I want to prove it.

        Does anyone have job descriptions etc on these.  I am also trying
to rewrite our very weak current descriptions.  We have 3 Senior designers
who all do the job differently and have different levels of experience. I
don't
feel you should have a title senior because you have been designing for lots
of years. You could have lots of years of the same experience. You should
be titled Senior due to range of experience and level of that.

        Sorry if I am ranting but this is important to me.
