Electrical Engineer I - Aircraft Integration

About the Role

Tyonek is dedicated to solving problems for current and future warfighters. As a senior electrical engineer, you will hold a key role in our aircraft integration efforts. Using your electrical engineering expertise, you will design and develop the integration of avionics and weapons systems into multiple vehicle platforms for customers including US DoD, foreign military, and/or commercial entities. You may also serve as the technical lead for projects during both the design and test phases.

Responsibilities

• Develop system requirements, architecture, and interfaces between new avionic or mission systems and legacy aircraft systems.
• Develop aircraft systems and subsystem electrical designs, including creation of aircraft wiring diagrams, electrical installation drawings, and harness fabrication drawings using Computer Aided Design (CAD) programs.
• Design control panels, circuit breaker panels, relay panels, and interface panels.
• Assist in the performance and writing of engineering analyses and reports required to obtain airworthiness certification, including Electrical Loads Analysis (ELA).
• Develop and present informal design reviews.
• Assist in the development of installation instructions.
• Provide engineering support during the manufacturing phase.
• Provide engineering support during prototype, validation, and verification of aircraft modifications.
• Review completed installations to ensure conformance to design.
• Develop avionics and electrical system and subsystem testing, write test plans, test procedures, and test reports.
• Perform aircraft avionics and electrical system and subsystem testing and write test reports.
• Provide avionics systems, aircraft electrical systems, and electronic test equipment troubleshooting support to senior engineers during post-modification testing.
• Support component-level qualification testing.
• Perform other duties as assigned.

Requirements

• Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering (or closely related field) or 2 years of relevant experience in lieu of degree.
• Knowledge of DoD or commercial aircraft is desired.
• Ability to use computer-aided drafting software such as AutoCAD is a plus.
• Knowledge of aircraft electrical design requirements and design specifications, including SAE AS50881 Aerospace Vehicle Wiring Requirements, is a plus.
• Previous military aircraft electrical and avionics systems experience is a plus.
• Ability to operate in a fast-paced, multi-tasking, customer service-oriented environment with a high degree of efficient and effective performance.
• Must be able to obtain and maintain a Government Security Clearance.
• Must pass post-offer, pre-employment substance abuse testing.

Physical Requirements

• Must be able to walk and stand on level and/or inclined surfaces for certain periods throughout the day.
• Must be able to climb stairs, ramps, ladders, and work stands, working at heights with fall protection devices.
• Must be able to crouch, crawl, grasp or handle objects, use finger dexterity, bend elbow/knee, and reach above/below shoulders.
