How much do emc engineer jobs pay per year?

As of Jun 27, 2026, the average yearly pay for emc engineer in the United States is $115,864.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $83,000.00 and $151,500.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the Emc Engineer position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an EMC Engineer, you need a deep understanding of electromagnetic compatibility principles, circuit design, and regulatory standards, usually backed by a relevant engineering degree. Familiarity with EMC testing equipment, simulation tools like CST or HFSS, and compliance certifications such as iNARTE or CISPR are highly valuable. Strong problem-solving skills, attention to detail, and effective communication are important for conveying complex test results and collaborating with cross-functional teams. These skills are essential to ensure products meet regulatory requirements and operate reliably in real-world electromagnetic environments.

What does an EMC Engineer do?

An EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) Engineer is responsible for ensuring that electronic devices and systems function properly in their intended environments without causing or experiencing electromagnetic interference (EMI). They conduct tests, design shielding solutions, and ensure compliance with industry standards and regulations. EMC Engineers work in various industries, including automotive, aerospace, telecommunications, and consumer electronics. Their role helps maintain device reliability, safety, and regulatory compliance.

What are some typical challenges faced by EMC Engineers, and how are they addressed on the job?

EMC Engineers often face the challenge of diagnosing and mitigating unexpected electromagnetic interference (EMI) issues in complex electronic systems, especially as devices become more compact and interconnected. Troubleshooting can require creative problem-solving, running repeated tests, and collaborating closely with design, hardware, and compliance teams to identify root causes and implement effective solutions. Continuous learning is also necessary due to evolving regulatory standards and new technology trends. However, working as part of a dedicated EMC or compliance team provides valuable support and mentorship, allowing for knowledge sharing and career growth as you gain experience.

Job description

EMC Engineer
Department: Avionics
Employment Type: Full Time
Location: Hawthorne, California
Reporting To: Kevin Drumm
Compensation: $135,000 - $187,000 / year
Description
Venturi Astrolab, Inc. (Astrolab) is pioneering new ways to explore and operate on distant planetary bodies. We are singularly focused on designing, building, and operating a fleet of multi-purpose commercial planetary rovers to extend and enhance humanity's presence in the solar system. We are seeking motivated, creative, and exceptional people to join our world-class team.
As an EMC Engineer, you will be responsible for ensuring Avionics components are designed to endure the harsh electromagnetic environmental effects of interplanetary space. You will play a pivotal role in defining the design criteria for state-of-the-art avionics and electro-mechanical systems for the lunar surface with a strong focus on electromagnetic compatibility, in-space charging effects, and interdisciplinary requirements. You will be joining a company at the ground-level and have immense influence over the future of lunar exploration.
What you'll do:
  • Collaborate closely within cross-functional Engineering teams to capture requirements, lead design trades with respect to EMI/EMC, and integrate the design into the rover systems.
  • Contribute to full avionics and electro-mechanical systems/subsystems from system to component level with specific focus on E3 design criteria and operational/survivability requirements.
  • Analyze and contribute to designs relating to the effects of circuit and power system grounding architectures, structural electrical bonding, circuit isolation, shielding effectiveness, radiated/conducted emissions and susceptibility, near field/far field electromagnetics, transient protection, signal and power integrity, and general RF compatibility.
  • Troubleshoot EMI issues from board to system level.
  • Operate and automate a variety of EMI, RF, and electronics test equipment (spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, signal generation, oscilloscopes) within the context of avionics development and in house EMC testing.
  • Create and update technical documentation including command media, system diagrams, schematics, interface control documents, procedures, work and/or build orders, vendor and payload requirements, and test/anomaly reports.
  • Support flight hardware component qualification and spacecraft integration testing, including production issue dispositions, troubleshooting failures, and managing overall spacecraft risk.

What you'll bring:
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, physics, or other engineering discipline.
  • 5+ years of experience in EMI/EMC requirements, analysis, design, and testing for spacecraft systems and/or avionics component design (academic and personal projects apply).
  • Proficient in the use of lab equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, signal generators, logic analyzers, etc.
  • Proficient with Analytics/Modeling/Simulation tools such as LTSpice, and experience with electrical circuit analysis using simulation tools such as Spice or equivalent.
  • Familiarity with SMC-S-016 testing requirements, and testing per SMC-S-016.
  • Knowledge of electrical safety and EMC commercial compliance standards and/or testing.
  • MIL-STD-461 experience across the full range of EMC test (radiated susceptibility, radiated emissions, conducted susceptibility, conducted emissions) standards.
  • Experience in high power avionics system designs for spacecraft including: LDO Regulators, Buck/Boost converters, power line filters and various spacecraft grounding schemes for high voltage systems.
  • Experience in motor controller system designs for brushless DC motors (BLDC) and permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) in both low and high voltage systems.
  • Ability to read, interpret and follow circuit schematics, PCB layouts, engineering drawings, BOMs, cable harnesses, wiring schematics, interface diagrams, layout drawings, mechanical drawings, and CAD software.
  • Creative problem solver that can assess risk and make collaborative design and development decisions.
  • Strong presentation experience in highly technical design forums and reviews (Preliminary Design Reviews, Critical Design Reviews, Flight Readiness Reviews, etc.).
  • Experience with NX or similar CAD software including electrical harness routing.
  • Experience with vehicle level testing including writing test procedures, creating robust and efficient test sequencing, and analytical data review to evaluate hardware health.
