Job description

Mercury Systems is offering a Senior Principal Hardware Electrical Engineer a fulfilling career where you will be able to see the direct impact of your designs in deployed systems with true end-to-end ownership, operating in a smaller, highly technical team. You're not just implementing requirements; you're shaping ruggedized solutions that must perform in the real world under extreme conditions. Engineers here directly influence architecture, design decisions and system-level tradeoffs across the systems. You will lead and mentor engineering teams developing mission-critical embedded computing, high-speed digital systems, advanced FPGA solutions, secure processing and rugged electronics supporting operations across air, land, sea, and space.
Step into a role where you can remain deeply hands-on, take ownership of end-to-end technical work, and shape the next generation of defense and aerospace products. You'll lead innovation and deliver high-reliability, mission-critical solutions from day one.
Job Responsibilities:
  • Provide strategic technical leadership and execution for complex digital hardware programs from concept through production
  • Architect advanced electrical circuit solutions involving secure processing, storage, networking, FPGAs, high-speed interfaces, and extreme environment electronics
  • Develop advanced high-speed digital design including 400G+ Ethernet, PCIe Gen5+, DDR5+, and modern interconnects
  • Contribute to engineering best practices, design guidelines, and process improvements that scale across the organization
  • Execute the development and verification of highly complex circuits, modules, and systems
  • Advise senior leadership on technical risks, cost, schedule, and strategic direction

Required Qualifications:
  • BS in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering
  • Typically requires 10+ years relevant electrical design including complex embedded digital hardware from concept through production
  • Experience with high-speed and high-performance interfaces, memory technologies, and next generation interconnects

Digital & High-Speed Technologies
  • Intel or other advanced CPU architectures (Xeon-D, Cascade Lake, Granite Rapids)
  • Advanced FPGA technologies (AMD/Xilinx Versal, Intel/Altera Agilex)
  • High-speed interfaces (400G+ Ethernet, PCIe Gen5+, DDR5+)
  • Experience designing advanced network architectures (Nvidia, Broadcom, Marvell)

DoD/Aero, Rugged, & Secure Systems
  • VPX/VITA standards (3U/6U), COM Express
  • MIL-STD development in rugged environments
  • Space electronics or radiation tolerant components
