• Conduct detailed electrical analysis, simulations, and modeling to inform system performance.
• Develop and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation in accordance with customer and government requirements.
• Collaborate with cross-functional engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams to integrate electrical components into electromechanical assemblies aligned with modern manufacturing processes.
• Ensure electrical designs comply with applicable industry and military standards (e.g., NEC, IEEE, IEC, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-704, MIL-STD-1553), DoD requirements, and company guidelines.
• Apply working knowledge of ITAR/EAR export control regulations and DFARS requirements when handling, marking, and transmitting technical data and drawings.
• Troubleshoot and resolve electrical issues, applying corrective actions to prevent recurrence.
• Identify and support cost-effective solutions for system upgrades, retrofits, and new installations.
• Provide technical guidance and support to junior engineers as needed.
• Conduct feasibility studies, risk assessments, and cost-benefit analyses for electrical system improvements across multiple projects.
• Engage with customers, in coordination with senior engineering staff, to understand user requirements and support solution delivery.
• Support schematic design, parts selection, analysis, simulation, testing, and schematic capture for controls and power electronics.
• Perform board layout using industry tools (e.g., OrCAD PCB Editor) and support board procurement in regulated environments.
• Support the build and test of prototypes, contributing to the full development cycle.
• Support system architecture design, including cables and buswork, and assist with system integration analysis.

Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field.
• 4+ years of related electrical engineering experience, preferably within an aerospace, defense, or government contracting environment.
• Proficiency in electrical design software and electronic interrogation/reverse engineering of existing systems.
• Working knowledge of electrical design and manufacturing requirements (e.g., NEC, IEEE, IEC,)
• Familiarity with ITAR/EAR export control regulations and DFARS requirements as they apply to controlled technical data.
• Ability to handle multiple projects and deadlines concurrently.
• Experience designing, improving, and implementing electrical components and subsystems.
• Experience with schematic design, analysis, simulation, and board layout.
• Strong troubleshooting and failure analysis skills.
• Experience with ERP systems, MS Office, and data analysis tools.
• Skills to communicate complex ideas effectively and work with business and technical stakeholders.
• Effective verbal communication and interpersonal skills.
• Availability for travel to customer locations as required; estimated at 30% - client dependent.

Preferred Qualifications

• 2+ years of team lead or engineering project coordination experience (a plus, not required for this role).
• Working knowledge of MIL-STD and DoD electrical design and documentation requirements (e.g., MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-704, MIL-STD-1553).
• Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
• Experience with prototyping and hands-on assembly of designed parts to identify shortcomings and drive design improvements.
• Professional Engineer (PE) license or equivalent certification.
• LEAN, Six Sigma, or other process certifications.
• Experience with reverse engineering and technical report writing.
• Prior experience supporting DoD sustainment, legacy systems, or parts obsolescence (DMSMS) programs.
• Exposure to a wide array of manufacturing processes and materials.
