I've thought about it in the past, but not sure if people need PCB designers. i.e. send them the schematic, and you get PCB and/or gerbers back. I've even thought about a turn key thing where the schematics were sent, and assembled PCB's came back...
What do ya'll think? Are these people in demand?
 

In my experiance ..if I don't lay the board out myself it gets hosed. Relatively slow digital stuff may be okay but if it high speed digital or sensative analog or worse yet high voltage and current it will be a mess. The tools are good enough now that most people do it themselves or they have a red headed step-engineer that they stand over and tell how to do it.

good luck
 

as far as i know you can't make any electronics gadget with out pcb, if you want your product to be high rated one then you should have highly designed pcb
