Circuit Design Engineer Stf - E4

About the role

The Circuit Card Design Engineer will join the Hardware Engineering team at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control (MFC). Our team designs, develops, and fields precision engagement aerospace and defense systems, delivering high reliability circuit card assemblies (CCAs) that power missiles, sensors, and other mission-critical subsystems.

Responsibilities

• Capture and refine ROIC system requirements and translate them into detailed block-level specifications.
• Create and verify analog, mixed-signal, and digital circuit blocks (CMOS pixels, ADCs, bias generators, digital controllers, memory, PLLs, high-speed transceivers).
• Perform circuit simulation, timing analysis, and layout of individual blocks and of the top-level ROIC floorplan.
• Run laboratory tests, debug silicon, and iterate designs to meet performance, power, and radiation-hardness targets.
• Generate technical documentation, test reports, and design-review decks; deliver clear presentations to cross-functional teams and customers.
• Carefully coordinate device-library and process-selection activities with CMOS foundries, managing mask-set deliveries and process-characterization data.
• Mentor junior designers, promote best-practice design flows, and encourage a culture of creativity and inclusion.
• Participate in risk, schedule, and earned-value tracking for ROIC projects and report status to senior leadership.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree from an accredited college in a related discipline, or equivalent experience/combined education, with 9 years or more of professional experience; or 7 years of professional experience with a related Master's degree.
• Excellent communication skills and working in collaborative team environments.
• Experience with Cadence Virtuoso IC design tools.

Desired Skills

• Top-level and circuit block experience of ROIC designs.
• Analog circuit design of amplifiers, current mirrors, and other bias circuits.
• Digital logic circuit design with custom logic blocks or with RTL behavioral design.
• Mixed signal circuit design of high-speed digital blocks such as memory, PLLs, analog-to-digital converters, digital-to-analog converters, and high-speed serial transmitters.
• Transistor-level layout mask design for CMOS ROIC circuit blocks.
• Linux C-Shell scripting or Cadence SKILL code scripting.
• Project management and coordination of engineering teams over product lifecycles.
• Understanding of IR sensor systems and their components.
