Position Summary:
The NDT Principal Electrical Engineer is a senior-level technical contributor responsible for leading the design, development, testing, and implementation of electrical systems and products within an R&D environment. This person owns the end-to-end development of electrical subsystems for next generation digital radiographic equipment. The NDT Principal Electrical Engineer independently leads intricate engineering designs from concept through commercialization, with a focus on battery systems, PCB and harness design, and system integration. This position collaborates closely with other team members including mechanical, firmware, manufacturing, and supplier partners to deliver robust, manufacturable designs that meet performance, safety, and regulatory expectations.
Position Responsibilities:

• Design and develop analog and digital circuits for digital radiographic detectors.
• Create schematics, PCB layouts, and supporting documentation.
• Perform board bring-up, testing, debugging, and validation.
• Collaborate with firmware/software engineers on embedded systems integration.
• Support manufacturing, including troubleshooting, root cause analysis, and continuous improvement.
• Troubleshoot and diagnose a broad range of electrical issues in both released products and in development hardware; perform root cause analysis and corrective actions.
• Design harnesses (conventional wire and flex), including connector/terminal selection, wire gauge/safety considerations, strain relief, and documentation.
• Collaborate with suppliers and procurement team on fabrication, test, DFM/DFT feedback, first articles, and component obsolescence mitigation; resolve build and test issues swiftly.
• Generate clear design documentation (requirements, specifications, drawings, BOMs, etc.) ensuring traceability and compliance.
• Contribute to system architecture, including new data path concepts for imaging systems; participate in IP development and review as appropriate.

Required Skills & Education:

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering or any related STEM field.
• Minimum 10 years of hands-on electrical engineering experience, serving as the technical lead for the electrical systems on 3-5 products from concept to production.
• Experience with end-to-end circuit board design: schematic capture, PCB design/layout, cabling/harnessing, component selection, documentation and support of QA V&V and production release activities.
• Comprehensive technical knowledge of embedded microprocessor design and integration for ARM Cores, DDR memory interfaces.
• Expertise in executing subsystem and system-level test plans, using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers) to identify and resolve critical hardware defects.
• Practical prototyping experience withhands-on fabrication and assembly of prototype PCBs, wiring harnesses, and test fixtures to support feasibility evaluations.
• Working knowledge of Microsoft Visio for Electrical drawings and documentation

Desired Skills:

• NDT product experience

• Proficiency in PCB design (schematic and layout).
• Experience with mixed-signal systems, low-noise design, or imaging/sensor electronics.
• Strong analytical troubleshooting and problem-solving skills using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, electronic loads).
• Familiarity with wireless technologies (e.g., Bluetooth, Wi-Fi) as applied to embedded/medical systems.
• Experience with firmware development (C/C++).
• Experience with FPGA design (VHDL/Verilog).
• Knowledge of general radiography and fluoroscopy-theory of operation and key system components.
• Familiarity with safety standards IEC 60601-2-54 (X-ray equipment for radiography and radioscopy) and IEC 60601-2-43 (X-ray equipment for interventional procedures).
• Practical soldering skills down to 0402 package size (rework and prototype builds).

Work Environment:
Traditional Office Environment: This position is primarily an office setting with standard temperature and humidity controls, moderate to light noise, fluorescent lighting, primarily sitting with standing desks available, extensive computer and keyboard use, etc.
