I’m getting ready to spin up a prototype and need an experienced PCB designer to turn my schematic into a clean, single-layer board that will end up larger than 10 cm × 10 cm. I’ll provide the circuit diagram along with a few placement preferences; from there you’ll handle footprint selection, component placement, manual or auto-routing (whichever gives the most reliable results on a single copper layer), and all the usual design-rule checks. Because this is strictly for prototyping, I’m less worried about space savings and more concerned with trace clarity, manufacturability, and easy debugging. Standard through-hole parts dominate the BOM, but a couple of SMD footprints may appear—nothing exotic. If you normally work in KiCad, Altium Designer, or Eagle, that’s perfect; just let me know which platform you prefer so we can stay compatible. Deliverables I’m expecting: • Finished editable project file in your chosen CAD tool • Production-ready Gerber, drill, and pick-and-place files • PDF schematic and assembly drawings for reference • A concise BOM with manufacturer part numbers The design should pass all built-in DRCs at common fabrication specs (1 oz copper, 6/6 mil rules are fine). Once I receive the files I’ll send them straight to JLCPCB for a quick run, so please keep their standard stack-up in mind. If you have questions about trace widths, grounding strategy, or hole sizing, just ask before routing so we don’t lose time on revisions. Looking forward to seeing your layout skills in action!

Dear Sir, As an accomplished electrical engineer with extensive experience in PCB design and a specialist in a multitude of software programmes used within the industry, I am confident in my ability to convert your circuit schematic into a highly functional, single-layer board for prototyping. My expertise covers everything from digital to analog designs, power electronics, and renewable energy projects. My preferred CAD tools include KiCad, Altium Designer, and Eagle which keeps me perfectly aligned with your project specifications. In addition to delivering a finished project file in your desired CAD format, I will also provide you with production-ready Gerber files with drill and pick-and-place files. With regards to design-rule checks (DRCs), this is an area where many designers fall short. However, my extensive experience ensures that we won't have that problem. I'll carry out all necessary checks before sending the design to JLCPCB to ensure that it passes all built-in DRCs at common fabrication specs. Lastly, given my history of working on projects like yours promptly and successfully, you can trust that I have the capacity to meet your project’s timeline with utmost efficiency. Feel free to shoot me any queries about trace widths, grounding strategy or hole sizing anytime during the process without worrying about losing valuable time on revisions.

Yes, KiCad is my tool of choice, and the design will be fully JLCPCB-ready. I am curious, though—since you're using JLCPCB's services, is there a specific reason you're opting for a single-layer board instead of dual-layer? Given that you've mentioned the design is mostly through-hole components, I imagine the complexity isn't excessive, and I may be able to reduce design costs once I've reviewed the schematic. One question I'd like to address: why choose me? With over 15 years of PCB design experience, I hand-route every layout with meticulous attention to signal integrity and aesthetic quality. Beyond that, I take your IP protection very seriously. Please share the schematic, and I'll walk you through the entire process to get your prototype ready.

I have over 35 years of experience as an electronic design engineer with a first-class honour’s degree, please see my profile for more details. Because of my wealth of experience, I will be very proactive in advising you on the best solutions to meet your requirements. Although you say single layer for the PCB I really think you mean copper on both sides of the board. Single layer would not be cheaper and probably result in lots of wire links for cross overs. I have designed many boards ready to upload to JLCPCB so very familar with the process. The current price and timescales are only place holders to allow me to communicate with you I would prefer to work in milestones but cannot define these until I have more details Please can you send me the schematic.
