Summary

We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Electrical Engineer to join our engineering team. This role is focused on the design and development of rugged, high-performance electronics used in mission-critical defense applications with a strong emphasis on PCB layout and design.  Experience or interest in RF circuit and antenna design is a significant plus.

 

The ideal candidate will bring a deep understanding of electronics design, with the ability to contribute across the full product development lifecycle—from concept and prototyping through production and sustainment.

 

  • Design, analyze, and validate analog, digital, and RF circuitry for embedded systems.
  • Lead PCB layout and design for high-reliability, multi-layer boards, ensuring compliance with military standards (MIL-STD) and IPC class specifications.
  • Integrate a wide range of sensors (IMUs, GPS, environmental, etc.) and communication modules (LTE, UHF, SATCOM, etc.) into embedded and modular systems.
  • Develop and integrate RF front-ends and antennas for secure communications and sensor applications.
  • Perform schematic capture, BOM generation, layout, and detailed documentation for design reviews and production.
  • Collaborate closely with firmware, mechanical, systems, and test engineers to deliver ruggedized and SWaP-optimized solutions.
  • Conduct signal integrity analysis, power distribution verification, and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) assessments.
  • Support environmental and compliance testing including EMI/EMC, shock, vibration, and thermal.
  • Maintain design documentation and contribute to configuration management and version control.
