  • Partner closely with electrical engineering, RF, PCB design, reliability, supply chain, structures, manufacturing and other disciplines to drive full scope product delivery
  • Your team will output complex electro-mechanical solutions for flight critical avionics systems that withstand harsh environments

  • Experience working with electrical engineers to develop avionics packaging
  • Experience with finite element analysis (FEA), thermal analysis, and fatigue/lifecycle testing 
  • Experience working directly with fabrication shops, contract manufacturers, and suppliers
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced, agile development environment with evolving priorities 
  • A demonstrated record of working hard, being trustworthy, holding yourself to high standards, and being kind to others
