Job Description

Key Responsibilities

PCB, RF, and Power Electronics Design Support
  • Support and review PCB layouts that incorporate RF and power electronics circuits, including component placement, routing, and grounding/shielding practices.
  • Contribute to design and analysis of power stages (e.g., converters, inverters, rectifiers, filters) and associated magnetics/transformers to meet performance, efficiency, and thermal requirements.
  • Review electrical schematics, PCB fabrication/assembly drawings, and BOMs for RF and power electronics designs; recommend improvements for manufacturability, testability, and reliability.

Testing, Troubleshooting, and Repair
  • Develop and execute test plans for RF and power electronics assemblies, including board-level and system-level verification.
  • Perform bench-level troubleshooting using oscilloscopes, network analyzers, spectrum analyzers, and other test equipment.
  • Diagnose failures in RF paths, power stages, and transformers; support repair activities and component replacements.
  • Conduct structured root cause analysis (e.g., fault tree, 5 Whys, data reviews) for recurring hardware and test issues and drive corrective actions to closure.

Technical Writing and Reporting
  • Prepare clear technical reports documenting test results, failure investigations, and corrective actions for RF and power electronics hardware.
  • Create and maintain test procedures, repair guides, and engineering change documentation.
  • Communicate complex technical findings to both engineering and non-engineering stakeholders.

Requirements, Standards, and Interfaces
  • Interpret electrical schematics, RF block diagrams, PCB layouts, and transformer drawings.
  • Apply relevant specifications and industry/military standards to RF and power electronics design, test methods, and acceptance criteria.
  • Collaborate with design, test lab, manufacturing, quality, and supply chain teams on component selection, obsolescence, alternates, and last-time buys for RF/power components and magnetics.

Minimum Required Qualifications

Bachelor's Degree from an accredited college or university plus a minimum of 3 years of electronics engineering focused on PCB-based RF or power electronics design, testing, and/or repair experience, OR; A High School Diploma / GED with a minimum of 7 years of electronics engineering focused on PCB-based RF or power electronics design, testing, and/or repair experience.

Key Competencies
  • Hands-on experience with troubleshooting and testing RF and power electronics circuits using appropriate lab equipment.
  • Ability to read and interpret electrical schematics, PCB drawings, and transformer/magnetics documentation.
  • Demonstrated experience with structured root cause analysis and technical report writing.
  • Strong analytical skills for RF and power electronics behavior and failure modes.
  • Clear, concise communication and documentation.
  • Attention to detail in drawings, specifications, and test data.
  • Continuous improvement mindset focused on strengthening design robustness, test coverage, and repair efficiency.

Preferred Qualifications & Experience
  • Experience in aerospace, defense, or other high-reliability electronics environments.
  • Background in transformer and magnetic component design (core selection, winding design, insulation, thermal considerations).
  • Familiarity with RF matching, filtering, and EMC considerations on PCBs.
  • Experience using SPICE-based tools for circuit simulation and analysis (e.g., LTspice, PSpice, or similar).
  • Experience with configuration/change management systems and component obsolescence management.
  • Experience collaborating with test labs and cross-functional engineering/manufacturing teams.
