This established technology company designs and manufactures advanced stabilized imaging and sensor systems used in aerospace, defense, and unmanned platforms. Their engineering environment is hands-on, collaborative, and focused on building reliable, production-ready hardware.

This would be on a small electrical engineering team and focuses on hands-on electronic hardware design for aerospace imaging and sensor systems. The engineer will own circuit design from concept through prototype bring-up and testing, spanning analog, digital, and power electronics, and will see their designs go into production.

The position also works with production, procurement, and PCB fabrication/assembly vendors, supporting design-for-manufacturability reviews as designs move toward release. We are considering candidates at junior, mid, and senior+ levels.

Responsibilities:

Design, analyze, and document analog, digital, and power electronic circuits for aerospace applications

Perform schematic capture and PCB layout using Altium Designer

Support prototype assembly, bring-up, and functional testing

Troubleshoot prototypes, production hardware, and RMAs; perform root-cause analysis and drive corrective actions

Create and maintain schematics, BOMs, fabrication drawings, and release packages

Participate in design and peer reviews

Support Design for Manufacturability (DFM) reviews and act as a technical liaison to PCB fabrication/assembly vendors and procurement

Maintain configuration-controlled engineering documentation

Collaborate closely with mechanical, software, manufacturing, and production teams to ensure designs meet performance, manufacturability, and reliability requirements

Required Experience:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related discipline

Hands-on experience with schematic capture and PCB layout (Altium Designer preferred)

Experience with circuit design, prototype bring-up, and hardware troubleshooting

Familiarity with DFM principles and PCB fabrication/assembly processes

Open to a range of experience levels, from early-career engineers with strong fundamentals to senior engineers who have independently owned designs from concept through production

Preferred Experience:
