What You'll Do
In this role, you will lead fast-paced hardware development initiatives for electromechanical and electronic systems, managing the full project lifecycle from design through testing and delivery. You'll collaborate with engineering, operations, and supply chain teams while maintaining direct contact with customers to ensure technical requirements are met efficiently.
You’ll tackle complex technical problems across multiple concurrent projects, often with minimal oversight, applying innovative approaches to overcome obstacles. Your work will include coordinating resources, guiding assembly and test efforts, and interfacing with external suppliers. You’ll also represent your team in cross-functional reviews and customer engagements, presenting technical data and driving design validation activities.
Travel to customer or supplier locations will be required for program support, site testing, and demonstrations. You’ll take ownership of critical project elements, adapt quickly between responsibilities, and help train others through knowledge sharing and formal presentations.
Requirements
A Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering with at least five years of relevant experience, or an Associate’s degree with nine years of hands-on engineering work is required. You must be able to obtain a U.S. Security Clearance.
Successful candidates will have a solid background in electronic hardware development, including experience in design, analysis, and production of complex systems. You should be comfortable working in lab or field test environments and skilled in using electronic test equipment. A strong grasp of circuit design, board layout, and test equipment development is essential.
You must be able to assess project needs, identify action steps, and balance competing priorities such as cost, timing, manufacturability, and supply chain constraints. Strong analytical and communication skills are necessary to coordinate with stakeholders across departments and manage technical documentation for internal and external use.
Preferred Qualifications
Familiarity with embedded systems, firmware, power electronics, or avionics standards is highly valued. Experience using PCB CAD tools, test automation platforms like LabVIEW, or design for manufacturing and test (DFx) practices will support success in this role. Prior work in rapid prototyping or agile development environments is a strong advantage.
