TL;DR · Senior Specialist, Electrical Engineer

Senior Specialist, Electrical Engineer will join a talented team to support the precision electro-optics business. This role involves performing electronics design using tools such as Altium, Xpedition, Cadence ConceptHDL, OrCAD, PADS Layout, Spice, and Mentor Graphics. The engineer will perform schematic capture, generate functional and block diagrams, create electrical wiring diagrams, and manage mixed signal, digital, power, and analog designs. Day-to-day responsibilities include creating design review packages, developing test plans to validate circuit implementations, translating system requirements into detailed blocks, and leading bench-level system integration with hardware, software, and FPGA designs. The role requires expertise in microcontroller programming in embedded C, stepper motor control circuit design, and version control using subversion. This position addresses technical challenges in the precision electro-optics domain by managing projects from cradle to grave through various development cycles.

What you'll do

  • Perform electronics design including schematic capture, block diagrams, and wiring diagrams for digital, power, and mixed-signal systems.
  • Create design review packages and present circuit designs, performance budgets, and test data to peers.
  • Develop test plans and procedures to validate that circuit implementations meet functional requirements.
  • Translate system-level requirements into detailed implementation-level block diagrams and flow diagrams.
  • Lead bench-level system integration involving hardware, software, and FPGA designs.
  • Design, build, and test mixed-signal low voltage current driver boards and stepper motor control circuits.
  • Perform microcontroller programming and debugging using embedded C.
  • Conduct trade studies to analyze cost and schedule impacts for short turnaround projects.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor's degree with 6 years of experience, a Graduate degree with 4 years of experience, or 10 years of experience without a degree.
  • Ability to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance.
  • Knowledge of electronic design and simulation tools such as Altium, Xpedition, Cadence ConceptHDL, OrCAD, PADS Layout, Spice, and Mentor Graphics.
  • Experience with board design using microcontrollers, including programming and debugging in embedded C.
  • Experience with stepper motor control circuit design.
  • Active TS/SCI clearance with Poly (preferred).
  • 4+ years of experience in digital electronics technology, parts availability, and design architecture (preferred).
  • U.S. citizens.
