  • Understanding of an Electrical Load Analysis (ELA).
  • Experience with circuit modeling, simulation, and analysis.
  • Knowledge of electrical component selection and manufacturing.
  • Understanding of Electromagnetic Effects (EME), including Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) and Electromagnetic Interference (EMI).
  • Experience in digital or analog circuit design and schematic capture.
  • Understanding of the printed circuit board layout process and tools.

Essential Functions

  • Ability to work on a computer for extended periods.
  • Ability to travel as required.
  • Ability to work in an office or hybrid environment.
  • Precision in designing, testing, and troubleshooting electrical/electronic systems and components.
  • Ability to analyze complex electrical/electronic systems and evaluate performance data to identify problems and improve designs.
  • Applying systematic and logical problem-solving techniques to diagnose and resolve electrical/electronic issues.
  • Clearly convey technical information, design specifications, and project updates to team members, stakeholders, and management.
  • Ability to understand technical documents, electrical/electronic schematics, and electronic instrument measurements.
  • Ability to handle small components, tools, and equipment with precision.

This position requires the ability to obtain and maintain a Secret U.S. Security Clearance. U.S. Citizenship status is required as this position needs an active U.S. Security Clearance for employment.

Benefits

  • Medical, dental, and vision plans.
