The ideal candidate will contribute to the electrical design, layout, integration, and test of complex electro-optical systems and subsystems for defense applications.
Responsibilities
- Collaborate in all stages of development from conceptual architecture studies to detailed design through system integration and manufacturing support.
- Support senior engineers in development of overall electrical architecture for complex EOIR systems; define subsystems for other disciplines.
- Interface with others in a fast-paced, multi-discipline environment, including mechanical, software, systems, optical engineers, program managers, suppliers, and customers.
- Detailed schematic design including:
-Battery operated systems
-Power/signal analysis
-Analog and digital (FPGA/microcontroller) circuit design
-High speed data transmission
-EMC best practices
- Assist with component placement & PCB layout with emphasis on high-density, low SWaP applications.
- Aid in the evaluation of designs through simulation, prototype testing and requirement verification.
- Troubleshoot design failure modes to root cause and develop quick, effective solutions.
- Provide production/ manufacturing support, as needed.
- Generate associated documentation for quotes and procurement.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, with 2-4 years of relevant work experience.
- Willingness and eagerness to learn and develop new skills in a fast-paced development environment.
- Familiarity with ECAD tools for schematic capture, layout (e.g. Orcad, Allegro) and system simulation.
- Hands-on experience with system integration, debugging, and test, including basic soldering skills and test equipment use.
- Experience with electrical design principles and testing for a military environment, particularly analog & digital designs for compact, electro-optical systems which are generally battery-operated is a plus.
- Proficient with Microsoft Office applications including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint.
- Excellent organizational skills and the ability to interact with customers, suppliers, and other external personnel.
Additional Information
- Applicant must be a US Person.
- Brief travel within the US to customer locations may be required occasionally to support product testing or design reviews.
