Job Description

Job Description

Embedded Electronics Engineer

Tampa, FL

 

Company Overview

Detect-ION is a deep-tech startup founded in 2021 and develops next generation sensors for enhanced CBRNE (Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives) awareness for a broad range of applications including, but not limited to, environmental monitoring, biomedical/health sciences, warfighter protection, situational awareness, and national defense/security. The Detect-ION team has a collective 75+ years of contract research and development experience, and through several recent prestigious DTRA, IARPA, DARPA awards, has developed several disruptive sensor technologies for a broad range of high-value chemical/biological sensing applications.

Detect-ION develops sensors and systems in a dedicated 4000 sqft laboratory space located in Tampa, FL. We thrive in solving hard, high-value detection problems that require a multidisciplinary effort at the intersection of organic chemistry, biochemistry, gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, vacuum technology, data analytics, system engineering and AI/ML algorithms to produce the most pioneering sensing capability driven by mission-specific requirements from the US government and the industry.

As a recent startup, Detect-ION is built on an agile and enthusiastic sponsored research and development model to continue to serve our US government stakeholders and clients, while we explore commercial markets for our maturing technologies. We thrive on efficient project execution through astute scientific problem-solving experience and diligent program management and risk mitigation ensuring the highest ROI to our clients.

Position Overview

Detect-Ion is seeking a seasoned Embedded Electronics Engineer (EEE) to join our scientific and system engineering team to support the development of next generation chemical-biological detection technologies. The position will be part of a highly coordinated technical team of research scientists, engineers and program managers working on innovative R&D projects for the US government and commercial stakeholders. The projects range from conceptual benchtop testbeds to prove the viability of a scientific concept to optimizing a fully integrated sensor prototype; to characterizing the repeatability and durability of the prototype system over prolonged periods of operation; to deploy our sensors/systems in operational environments for testing and validation.

 

The EEE will interface with the scientists, system engineers (SEs), mechanical engineers (MEs) and program managers (PMs), and occasionally with subject matter expert contractors, to understand the envisioned system requirements and develop the control electronics requirements, electronic designs/circuit schematics, board layout and outsource the board fabrication and build up. Upon receiving these boards, the EEE will independently test and validate the board functionalities, troubleshoot issues, optimize circuit/layout designs, and support SEs and MEs in system-level integration, testing and optimization. This will require the EEE to be fully independent and accountable across embedded circuit design, layout, testing and firmware development to get to a working brassboard or prototype. Equally important, the candidate will provide compelling technical inputs to support program reviews, proposals, and business development activities for US Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) customers, as well as commercial clients, to expand our portfolio into innovative technologies and application base. The candidate will have the room to display their initiatives and passion with the potential to lead current and incoming projects/tasks. The right candidate will also have the opportunity to lead the system engineering team with the growth of the company and as we transition into the commercial markets. The candidate will report directly to the Founder/CEO of the company.

Minimum Qualifications

– BS/MS/PhD degree in Electrical Engineering.

– 15-20 years in hardware design, testing and optimization.

– Extremely proficient in Electronic Circuit Design: Analog, Digital, Embedded Control System Design utilizing Microcontrollers / DSP (8, 16, 32 bit), FPGA and CPLD, Motor Control, Communication Standards (RS485 / RS-422, RS-232, CAN, USB 2.0, LIN, SPI, I2C, JTAG), Power Supply Design (Linear and DC/DC Switching Regulator)

– Proficient in Altium Designer, Mentor Graphics Schematic Capture, OrCAD Schematic Capture and PSpice, Microsoft Excel, Word, Power Point, Project, Visio, Mathcad.

– Programming ability: C, VHDL, Intel 8051, Motorola 6800 and Microchip Assembly, Pascal, Basic.

– Proficient with benchtop electronics lab instruments (such as oscilloscopes, LCR meters, and logic analyzers) to conduct early testing and validation.

Desirables Experience

– Design, development, testing and certification (such as IEC 60601-1) of biomedical devices.

– Familiarity with FDA regulatory strategies.

– Design for manufacturing.

– Environmental testing to meet ruggedization standards (such as MIL-STD-810H).

– Knowledge of analytical instrumentation design such as air samplers, gas chromatograph, mass spectrometers, electron multipliers, switching high-voltage waveforms, vacuum component and integration, high-speed DC motor drivers, and RF electronics.

– Critical and independent thinker with a keen sense of accountability about their design and performance.

– Ability to work in an agile team environment.
