Electrical Engineering Specialist

About the role

Lynntech is seeking an electrical engineer to support the development of electrical and embedded systems for prototype products in the defense, aerospace, and medical markets. A successful candidate will have the opportunity to work across the product development lifecycle, from early-stage technology proof-of-concept through prototype development and testing to qualification of production-ready designs.

Responsibilities

At Lynntech, engineering is both theoretical and experimental. Our engineers split their time between developing detailed prototype designs and validating those designs in the lab. Engineering projects involve a wide variety of technologies at different stages in the product life cycle, from breadboard proof-of-concepts to minimum viable products.

• Designing electrical system architectures and integrating custom electronics with commercial off-the-shelf components
• Developing system wiring diagrams, cable and wire-harness designs, interface-control documentation, and power-distribution architectures
• Designing and modeling of schematics for both analog and digital circuits
• Designing and testing custom printed circuit boards for analog and digital applications
• Creating custom firmware implementations on a variety of platforms for implementation into advanced test fixtures, prototype designs, and marketable products
• Maturing prototype electrical systems into reproducible and supportable product designs through component derating, tolerance analysis, design-for-manufacture and design-for-test practices, environmental considerations, and verification against system requirements

The engineer will also participate in activities that support technology advancement and transition, including working with project leads, customers, end users, business-development personnel, and manufacturing partners to translate operational needs into technical requirements.

Requirements

The basic qualifications for this role include a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field with at least 2 years of relevant engineering experience (or a Master's Degree in a related field).

• Strong fundamentals in electrical, electronics, and software engineering, with the ability to develop designs and contribute constructively to peer design reviews
• Experience contributing to system or subsystem designs in areas such as system control, power distribution, or embedded systems based on product requirements and technology constraints
• Ability to independently execute assigned engineering tasks, seek guidance when appropriate, and contribute to design decisions in a collaborative environment
• Strong technical writing, speaking, and presentation skills
• Ability to work in a multi-disciplinary environment involving close interaction with other engineers within the department as well as other scientists in the company
• Must be a US Citizen, or Permanent Resident, to meet project contract requirements

Qualifications

Preferred qualifications include a Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field with 3-4 years of relevant engineering experience (or a Master's Degree with 1-2 years of industry experience), preferably in a technology-development-oriented industrial setting.

• Demonstrated application of engineering principles, concepts, theory, and practice, with the ability to organize and conduct assigned tasks to meet established deadlines or milestones
• Basic knowledge of systems engineering and the ability to work with teams across the technology-to-product-development lifecycle
• Experience with signal processing, machine learning algorithms, and electronics engineering design
• Knowledge and experience in PCB design methods and tools, communication protocols, and programming languages such as C/C++, C#, Java, Kotlin, Python, VHDL
• Experience with power supply design, embedded processor solutions, filtering, and data acquisition development
• Hardware development and firmware development experience
