TL;DR · Senior Specialist Electrical Engineer

Senior Specialist, Electrical Engineer joins a dynamic team to support the Precision Electronic Warfare business. This role involves leading electronics design efforts, including schematic capture, functional and block diagram generation, and electrical wiring diagrams for digital, power, analog, and mixed-signal designs. You will collaborate with an Integrated Product Team to manage project costs, schedules, and milestones while creating test plans and procedures to validate circuit implementations. Key technical requirements include proficiency with Xpedition, Altium, OrCAD, Spice, and Mentor Graphics tools. You will perform bench-level system integration involving microcontrollers, FPGAs, and software designs using embedded C, Python, and Linux. Expertise in Ethernet, RS-485, and I2C protocols is required to solve complex electronic warfare system challenges through the full product lifecycle.

What you'll do

  • Lead electronics design efforts including schematic capture, functional diagrams, and wiring diagrams for digital, power, and analog designs.
  • Create design review packages and present circuit designs, performance budgets, and test data to peers and customers.
  • Develop test plans and procedures to validate that circuit implementations meet functional requirements.
  • Translate system-level requirements into detailed implementation-level block diagrams and design concepts.
  • Lead bench-level system integration involving hardware, microcontrollers, FPGAs, and software designs.
  • Transition new electronic hardware to the production phase by coordinating with the Operations team.
  • Generate trade studies to analyze cost and schedule impacts on short turnaround projects.
  • Design, build, and test digital and mixed-signal circuit boards using industry-standard simulation tools.

What we're looking for

  • Bachelor’s Degree and minimum 6 years of relevant experience, a Graduate Degree and 4 years of experience, or 10 years of experience without a degree.
  • Ability to obtain a DOD Secret Security Clearance.
  • Knowledge of electronic design and simulation tools such as Xpedition, Altium, OrCAD, Spice, and Mentor Graphics.
  • Experience with board design using microcontrollers, including microcontroller programming and debugging in embedded C.
  • Experience with Python and other scripting tools for verification of hardware I/O.
  • Knowledge of Linux operating system and familiarity with command line execution.
  • Active DOD Secret, TS, or TS/SCI clearance (preferred).
  • U.S. citizens.
