  • Design multi-layer Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) featuring controlled impedance layers and blind micro-vias.
  • Perform analysis and testing for signal integrity and crosstalk in complex circuit designs.
  • Integrate various families of Micro Processors, Micro Controllers, FPGAs, and System-on-Chips into hardware solutions.
  • Provide technical leadership, direction, and mentorship to junior design engineers.
  • Identify and implement opportunities to apply AI for continuous process improvement and innovation.
  • Conduct Worst Case Analysis and Stress Analysis for high-reliability or space applications.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related Science, Engineering, Technology, or Mathematics field.
  • 8 years of job-related experience or a Master's degree plus 6 years of job-related experience.
  • U.S. citizenship is required.
  • Ability to obtain a TS/SCI security clearance within a reasonable amount of time.
  • Experience with schematic capture and designing multi-layer Printed Circuit Boards with controlled impedance layers and blind micro-vias.
  • Ability to analyze and test for signal integrity and crosstalk.
