TL;DR · Senior Electronics Components Engineer

As a Senior Electronics Components Engineer on the Tactical Recon & Strike team, you will support the development of autonomous drones and solid rocket motor systems. You will collaborate with design engineers to identify critical reliability issues and vulnerabilities while managing the transition from R&D prototypes to full production lines. Your daily responsibilities include troubleshooting issues across electrical and software boundaries using oscilloscopes and digital multimeters, simplifying designs through commonality, and addressing supply chain risks like end-of-life components. The role requires expertise in hardware for extreme environments, including experience with thermal, reliability, survivability, and EMI analysis. You will work within a cross-functional environment involving mechanical, software, and firmware engineers to deliver functional products. Preferred skills include proficiency in C/Linux, embedded systems protocols like SPI and ADCs, and developing for safety-critical, human-in-the-loop environments.

What you'll do

  • Identify critical design vulnerabilities and reliability issues related to functionality and manufacturing.
  • Support the transition of R&D prototypes into full production lines for drones and rocket systems.
  • Mitigate supply chain risks by addressing end-of-life components and sole-source parts.
  • Simplify designs by identifying and leveraging commonality across different product lines.
  • Troubleshoot issues at the intersection of electrical hardware and software using lab equipment and debugging tools.
  • Deliver fully functional products through cross-functional coordination with mechanical, software, and test engineers.
  • Support active deployments and customer-operated hardware in a fast-paced development environment.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Materials Sciences, or equivalent.
  • 5+ years of experience in component engineering, manufacturing, or materials and processes roles.
  • Experience with lab-based prototyping and research and development.
  • Experience working on products for extreme environments such as aerospace or defense.
  • U.S. Person status is required to access export controlled data.
  • Proficiency in troubleshooting across electrical and software boundaries using lab equipment and debugging tools.
  • Preferred experience in thermal, reliability, survivability, and EMI analysis and testing.
  • Preferred knowledge of embedded systems including C/Linux, hardware peripherals, and safety-critical environments.
