Electrical Engineering Specialist

Electronics Engineer – Embedded Systems and Product DevelopmentLynntech is seeking an electronics 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. The engineer will contribute to multi-faceted electrical solutions through embedded firmware/software development, custom circuit board design, and integration of custom and commercial components.The engineer will execute technical work as part of multidisciplinary project teams and will have opportunities to develop leadership skills through increasing technical responsibility, collaboration with customers and teammates, and participation in proposal development.Job DescriptionAt 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. Our electronics engineers are commonly engaged in the following technical activities:Designing electrical system architecture and integrating custom electronics with commercial off-the-shelf components, such as power supplies, motor drivers, sensors, actuators, communication devices, connectors, and industrial control hardware.Developing system wiring diagrams, cable and wire-harness designs, interface-control documentation, and power management architectureDesigning and modeling of schematics for both analog and digital circuitsDesigning and testing custom printed circuit boards for analog and digital applicationsCreating custom firmware implementations on a variety of platforms for implementation into advanced test fixtures, prototype designs, and marketable productsMaturing 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 requirementsThe engineer will also participate in activities that support technology advancement and transition:Working with project leads, customers, end users, business-development personnel, and manufacturing partners to translate operational needs into technical requirementsCollaborating with scientists and engineers to support grant proposals for the exploration and application of new technologies and the continued development of core technologiesParticipating in early-stage project research and contributing to the development of system requirements, architecture, and interfaces for envisioned prototypesContributing to and executing test plans to evaluate prototype performance against system requirementsDesigning and fabricating test fixtures to support evaluation of prototypes, from breadboard systems to minimum viable productsParticipating in system design verification and validation activitiesContributing to technical writing efforts for customer reports and project documentationSupporting technology transition activities, including technical maturation, cost and manufacturability assessments, qualification testing, field demonstrations, and documenting designs for transfer to internal or external manufacturing organizationsWorking as an electrical engineer at Lynntech offers many potential long-term career paths. Engineers can advance as technical experts in their discipline, develop expertise in one or more technology areas, and grow into project, personnel, or other leadership roles as their experience and responsibilities increase. Engineers can shape their career growth according to their interests, proficiency, and ability to add value to the engineering team and the organization.Basic QualificationsBachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related fieldStrong fundamentals in electrical, electronics, and software engineering, with the ability to develop designs and contribute constructively in a collaborative environmentHands-on experience with electronic hardware and embedded systems in areas such as circuit design, PCB development, power management, component selection, and integration of sensors, actuators, and control electronicsStrong technical writing, speaking, and presentation skillsMust be a US Citizen, or Permanent Resident, to meet project contract requirementsPreferred Skills and ExperienceBachelor'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)Demonstrated application of engineering principles, concepts, theory, and practice, with the ability to organize and conduct assigned tasks to meet established deadlines or milestonesBasic knowledge of systems engineering and the ability to work with teams across the technology-to-product-development lifecycle, including scientific personnel, mechanical engineers, and machining and fabrication personnelExperience with signal processingUnderstanding of machine learning algorithmsExperience with electronics engineering design, embedded microcontroller programming, FPGA development, or similar relevant education and experienceKnowledge and experience in PCB design methods and tools such as Altium DesignerKnowledge of various communication protocols such as I2C, SPI, serial, USB, CAN, and TCP/IPProgramming experience in C/C++, C#, Java, Kotlin, Python, VHDL, or related languagesSPICE modeling applied to analog and digital circuit developmentKnowledge and experience in power supply design, embedded processor solutions, filtering, and data acquisition development (A/D and D/A conversion)Hardware development (schematics, layout, test) (analog and digital design)Firmware development (microcontrollers such as the PIC32, ARM, or MSP430)Experience in troubleshooting electrical and electromechanical systemsWorking knowledge of general constraints with mechanical and software development, to be able to work with team members with these functionalitiesExperience contributing to technical writingInterested candidates are encouraged to apply online at Feel free to include a cover letter or expanded resume to outline how you fit this position.Lynntech is an EEO Employer.
