Brief Description:
- · The TS Electronic and Electrical Engineer (EE Engineer) independently leads the full lifecycle development of assigned electronic and electrical hardware projects—from concept through verification—applying rigorous engineering judgment, sound design principles, and compliance with relevant business, industry, and Test Systems standards and processes (e.g., AS9100D, ARP4754A/B, DO-254).
- · The role requires translating high-level system or product requirements into detailed circuit specifications, functional architectures, and robust implementation solutions. The engineer owns all key hardware development phases, including board-level architecture definition, schematic capture, strategic component selection, PCB layout coordination, signal and power integrity planning, timing analysis, and seamless integration with software and system subsystems.
- · As the EE Engineer within the Test Systems domain, the engineer ensures that ground test platforms (e.g., SIVB, SSDL, LRM) deliver the fidelity, reliability, and maintainability required for complex avionics validation and verification.
Responsibilities:
- Independently responsible for the execution of full lifecycle design, analysis, and evaluation of electronic/electrical hardware for avionics test systems (e.g., SIVB, SSDL, LRM), applying sound engineering judgment and adhering to avionics interface standards—including ARINC 664 (AFDX), ARINC 429, ARINC 825 (CAN), discrete I/O, and analog signal conditioning—to ensure successful integration and verification.
- Define board-level functional architectures, select optimal technologies and components (e.g., high-speed interfaces, power delivery networks, and COTS solutions), and make trade-offs that balance performance, cost, reliability, maintainability, and certification/verification requirements, generate accurate and configuration-controlled Bills of Materials (BOMs), and collaborate closely with PCBA suppliers to build, inspect, and verify prototype assemblies.
- Proficient in using electrical and electronic design software (e.g., UG, AD, Mentor, etc.) to design and develop the system and hardware requirements into detailed schematics, and develop PCB/PCBA designs in compliance with cross-functional, integration, and manufacturable requirements. Design the PCB layout and routing constraints, provide clear implementation guidance to external PCB vendors, and actively oversee the layout process to ensure signal integrity, power integrity, EMC, and design maintainability.
- Capture, categorize, document, and validate hardware requirements to ensure traceability and alignment with system objectives across the entire Test Systems (TS) lifecycle—from initial design and assembly through field upgrades and maintenance. Author comprehensive HW technical documentation, including Hardware Design Specification, Plan and Report and so on.
- Lead cross-functional design reviews to validate that hardware solutions are robust, manufacturable, testable, supportable, and adaptable to future upgrades throughout the product lifecycle.
- Familiar with a wide range of COTS/Designed laboratory instrumentation, and proficient in fault isolation, diagnostics, and maintenance of test equipment to ensure lab readiness and measurement integrity.
Qualifications Required:
- Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics, or a related field; Master’s degree preferred.
- 5–10 years of hands-on experience in electronic hardware design, integration, and verification within civil aerospace, defense, automotive, or other high-reliability industries.
- Proficient with industry-standard EDA tools (e.g., Cadence Allegro/OrCAD, Mentor, UG) for schematic capture and PCB design.
- Strong knowledge of modern PCB technologies, high-speed design principles, component packaging, and supply chain dynamics.
- Expertise in using laboratory instrumentation—including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and protocol analyzers—for debugging and validation.
- Demonstrated “can-do” attitude, adaptability in fast-paced environments, and a rigorous, detail-oriented approach to engineering excellence.
- Fluent in English (written and spoken); able to lead technical discussions, author specifications, and collaborate effectively with global engineering teams via email, video conferencing, and virtual collaboration platforms.
Qualifications Desired:
- Experience with FPGA knowledge.
- Skilled in circuit simulation and analysis tools (e.g., PSpice, Multisim) and engineering calculation software (e.g., Mathcad).
- Proven track record in managing external suppliers (PCB fabricators, PCBA assemblers, component vendors) to meet quality, cost, and schedule objectives.
- Direct experience across key phases of the hardware development lifecycle: requirements capture, design, integration, and verification, with working knowledge of avionics standards including ARINC 664, ARINC 429, ARINC 825 (CAN), and ARINC 653.
We will build a capable, innovative, diverse, customer-oriented team with the best talent in our industry.
