ENGINEERING TECH (ELECTRICAL)

See your work fielded fast. Get hands-on with hardware and watch it deployed to customers within months, not years.
Build next-generation defense technology. Our engineering work protects warfighters, reduces collateral damage, and safeguards civilians.
Speed and Accuracy We move quickly, and you'll see your work through from concept to deployment — not just one slice of the pipeline; Hybrid schedule Working at OKSI provides you with a unique opportunity to see fruition of your work while still having a real work-life balance with our hybrid schedule options.
As an Electrical Engineer III, you'll serve as a technical contributor and subsystem lead in developing ruggedized, AI-integrated electronics for defense and environmental science applications, with full ownership of hardware design efforts and mentorship of early-career engineers along the way.
Lead the design and development of complex electrical systems, including mixed-signal PCBs, embedded controllers, and custom sensor interfaces
Architect low-power, high-reliability solutions for rugged, space-constrained applications; define electrical requirements and validate hardware against functional, thermal, and EMI/EMC targets
Integrate embedded processors, FPGAs, sensors, and power subsystems within multifunctional platforms, working closely with software teams on hardware/firmware communication
Own electrical design workstreams within multidisciplinary projects from requirements through release; Serve as a key contributor in design reviews, risk assessments, and trade studies
Develop test procedures and lead lab validation efforts (thermal, vibration, environmental testing); conduct root cause analysis and implement corrective actions
Collaborate with vendors on PCB fabrication, assembly, and design for manufacturability (DFM); help resolve production issues and manage obsolescence/lifecycle planning
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent, plus 4-6 years of relevant experience
Ability to manage engineering tasks independently and drive results across multiple stakeholders
Proficient in lab testing, debugging, and root cause analysis using industry-standard tools
Background in automotive, EV, AV, aerospace, or space industries
Experience with optics and multispectral digital imaging systems
Experience transitioning products into full production and shipping at scale
Low-level firmware experience, particularly for bring-up and testing
Medical, dental, vision fully paid by the employer for the employee
