Candidates are not expected to be experts in every area. The ideal individual will possess strong engineering fundamentals, practical problem-solving abilities, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to learn new technologies quickly.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the design, development, integration, testing, and deployment of advanced electronic and defense-related systems.
• Perform electrical and computer engineering activities for assigned projects while collaborating closely with engineering leadership.
• Develop, modify, and troubleshoot electrical, electronic, and mechanical designs.
• Create CAD models, engineering drawings, prototypes, and testing fixtures.
• Integrate hardware, software, sensors, cameras, tracking systems, control electronics, and processing platforms.
• Investigate technical issues, identify root causes, and implement effective corrective actions.
• Conduct laboratory, production-level, field, and customer-site testing and troubleshooting.
• Prepare engineering specifications, test procedures, technical reports, and supporting documentation.
• Participate in customer, supplier, and internal technical meetings.
• Maintain technical records and proprietary engineering data.
• Provide technical guidance and support to field service and technical support personnel.
• Collaborate with system engineers, software engineers, mechanical engineers, program managers, and external stakeholders.
• Support product improvements, new technology development, and production initiatives.
• Travel as needed for system integration, testing, installation, customer support, and technical collaboration.
