Circuit Design Engineer Sr - E3

About the role

The Circuit Design Engineer plays a crucial part in developing high-reliability electronics for demanding space applications. They collaborate across engineering disciplines to design, develop, integrate, and qualify hardware from concept to qualification.

Responsibilities

• Design and analyze analog/digital circuits, perform worst-case, parts-stress, and FMEA analyses, and use tools like PSpice and Saber for simulation and optimization.
• Create schematics using Zuken or Siemens Xpedition and support PCB layout using EPCAD or Siemens tools, focusing on signal integrity and space-qualified practices.
• Develop prototypes, checkout procedures, and test plans, and execute acceptance and qualification testing.
• Partner with PCB, GNC, FPGA, and Special Test Equipment teams to integrate, troubleshoot, and verify hardware.
• Lead trade studies and evaluate architectures while balancing performance, cost, schedule, reliability, and risk.
• Manage Bill of Materials (BOMs), component selection, sourcing, and prototype builds.
• Verify designs withstand shock, vibration, radiation, thermal extremes, and other mission environments.
• Present technical status, risks, and issues to leadership and customers while mentoring engineers and advancing continuous improvement.

Requirements

• Bachelor of Science or higher from an accredited college in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline; or equivalent experience/combined education.
• Experience or coursework related to design and/or analysis of Circuit Card Assemblies (CCA).
• Current or Active Top Secret clearance, thus US citizenship is required.

Qualifications

• Working knowledge using Zuken, Altium, Mentor Graphics or other schematic capture tool.
• Knowledge of card test requirements and process.
• Ability to understand electrical circuits, interfaces, and interconnect diagrams.
• PSPICE, Saber, or other electronics simulation tool experience.
• Technical experience in full life cycle development of hardware including design, integration, and test.
• Excellent presentation, oral and written skills.
• Able to work effectively in a diverse team environment.
• Demonstrated strong problem solving and conflict resolution skills.

Skills

• Demonstrated usage of Zuken, Altium, Mentor Graphics or other schematic capture tool.
• Experience performing Worst Case Analysis (WCA) on Circuit Card Assembly (CCA) designs.
• Knowledge of card test requirements and process.
• Ability to understand electrical circuits, interfaces, and interconnect diagrams.
• PSPICE, Saber, or other electronics simulation tool experience.

Benefits

• Full-Time Salary Range: $110300.00 - $204900.00
• Benefits offered: Medical, Dental, Vision, Flexible work arrangements and schedules, 401(k) match, Paid time off, Holidays, Parental Leave, EAP, Flexible Spending Accounts, Education Assistance, Life Insurance, Short-Term Disability, and Long-Term Disability.
• Annual short-term and/or long-term incentive compensation programs may be offered depending on the position.
