Electrical Engineer

Principal Mechanical Engineer

Build the Future of High-Performance Connectivity

At ThinKom, we don't just build antennas - we design high-performance, next-generation mechanical systems that connect the world across air, land, sea, and space. From Inflight Connectivity (IFC) to High-Power Microwave (HPM) systems to Defense SATCOM, our technology operates in some of the world's most demanding environments.

We're looking for a Principal Mechanical Engineer who loves hands-on engineering, thrives on solving hard hardware problems, and wants to see their designs go from napkin sketch to physical deployment. If you're ready to lead critical programs, mentor rising talent, and push the limits of advanced satellite communications, this is your platform.

POSITION SUMMARY

As an Electrical Engineer, you will design, develop, integrate and test complex electrical systems for high-performance antenna systems. You'll work with multidisciplinary engineering teams throughout the product lifecycle - from concept development and detailed design through testing, manufacturing, and customer support for aerospace and defense applications.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Design, evaluate, and update circuit board assemblies and cabling
• Provide critical support across all product development lifecycle phases - including conceptual, prototype, and production design - to guarantee assigned objectives are met on schedule
• Perform hands-on hardware sub-component, circuit board and system level electrical testing and integration
• Support multiple programs/products simultaneously
• Documentation of Electrical designs
• Additional responsibilities may include system integration, data collection, and product support
• Other duties as assigned

WHAT YOU BRING

Must-Haves:

• Education: Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Electronics Engineering
• Electrical Engineering Experience: Experience in analog circuitry such as power regulation and sensor signal conditioning, digital circuitry interfaces such as I2C, SPI, Ethernet, and Serial UART
• Technical Experience: Experience in reading and deciphering technical documentation and specifications
• Other Abilities: Technically proficient in MS Office products, excellent logical and problem-solving abilities
• Status: U.S. Citizen or Lawful Permanent Resident (Green Card holder) required to support U.S. Government contracts.

Nice-to-Haves (Preferred Experience):

• Experience: 1-3 years of experience in the field of Electrical Engineering
• Electrical Engineering Experience: Experience in FPGAs, DSPs, Microcontrollers, Circuit Board schematic and layout programs

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE HERE

• You are a creative problem solver who approaches complex physical constraints with clarity and logic
• You are an effective communicator who can pitch a complex design trade-off to engineers and business stakeholders alike
• You are collaborative by default, building strong bridges with manufacturing, suppliers, and customer teams

WORKING CONDITIONS & PHYSICAL DEMANDS

• Typical office, workstation, and lab/manufacturing environments.
• Ability to lift or move prototype equipment up to 40 lbs, on occasion.
• Comfortable working near testing setups that may involve elevated noise levels, chemicals, or electromagnetic energy.
• Willingness to travel up to 5% for vendor visits, customer reviews, or off-site testing.

WHY JOIN THINKOM?

At ThinKom, you'll help develop innovative technologies that enable critical communications and advanced electromagnetic systems for Commercial Inflight Connectivity (IFC), High-Power Microwave (HPM), and Gateway & Defense SATCOM applications. You'll work alongside highly skilled engineers on technically challenging programs, influence product direction, and contribute to solutions that perform in some of the world's most demanding environments.

We foster a collaborative culture that values innovation, technical excellence, continuous learning, and professional growth. If you're looking for an opportunity to solve complex engineering challenges while helping shape the future of advanced antenna and electromagnetic technologies, we encourage you to apply.
