The Opportunity....
We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to design, document, and test electrical and electronic subsystems and components for airfield lighting systems as a part of our Individual Lighting Control Monitoring System (ILCMS) team. This position will primarily focus on our Airside 4.0 product lineup including the LINC360 powerline communication controller and the ACE3 constant current regulator (CCR) controller line of products. The Senior Electrical Engineer will develop and maintain power components, printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA), and embedded firmware to support advanced electronic systems.
You will make an impact by...
- Develop microcomputer embedded systems from proof of concept phase to product launch with quality at top of mind.
- Design analog, digital, mixed-signal, and power electronic circuits, including microcontroller-based systems, communication interfaces, signal conditioning, and monitoring circuitry.
- Provide technical leadership and collaborate with cross-functional global teams during product planning, design reviews, risk assessments, and technology roadmap development.
- Collaborate with firmware, systems, mechanical, manufacturing, quality, and service engineering teams to ensure successful product integration and release.
- Make architecture-level decisions affecting performance, reliability, manufacturability, cybersecurity, maintainability, and long-term product strategy.
- Drive continuous improvement initiatives that reduce product cost, simplify manufacturing, and improve system performance.
- Create and maintain technical documentation including requirements, design specifications, interface definitions, test procedures, verification reports, and engineering change documentation.
- Plan and execute hardware verification activities, including functional testing, environmental testing, regulatory compliance testing, test automation, reliability assessments, and root-cause investigations.
- Lead cross-functional technical investigations and guide resolution of critical customer and field issues.
- Partner with production teams to provide post-design support—including production line setup, assembly assistance, and end-of-line testing—while driving manufacturing and process efficiency improvements.
- Coordinate with Supply Chain to assess vendors’ manufacturing capabilities and support the identification and qualification of alternate components.
- Assist design, production, and validation teams in creating automated test fixtures when necessary.
Ability to travel up to 10% for field troubleshooting, data collection, and site surveys both in the US and internationally.
