As a key player in our team, you'll be immersed in component-level design of analog and digital systems, specializing in EMI/RFI design. Seize the opportunity to learn from industry leaders and become a subject matter expert yourself in our flexible and dynamic work environment.

Essential Duties and Responsibilities

• Lead the component-level design of analog and digital systems, ensuring optimal performance with a focus on EMI/RFI compliance and TEMPEST & TSG design standards
• Design and implement filter circuits with precision, ensuring minimal interference and signal integrity
• Utilize ORCAD PCB design software (or similar tools) for schematic capture and PCB layout. Experience with Ansys HFSS Software is a plus
• Collaborate closely with mechanical engineers, TEMPEST engineers, and other technical disciplines during system integration of prototypes and production units
• Serve as Project Lead, managing budgets, schedules, and ensuring delivery of high-quality engineering output
• Review and approve all relevant schematics, PCB layouts, and drawings associated with TEMPEST & TSG product development
• Partner with Manufacturing Engineering to diagnose and resolve production-related test issues for TEMPEST-compliant units
• Evaluate existing operational systems and recommend design modifications to improve performance, reliability, and compliance
• Perform other duties as assigned in support of program and organizational goals
• Willingness to travel occasionally (less than 5%) to support project or customer needs

What You Can Expect

• End-to-End Involvement: You’ll contribute across the entire engineering lifecycle—from concept and design through prototyping, integration, and delivery
