Full Job Description

Intellisense Systems, Inc. is a privately held company with a proven track record of developing and deploying innovative products that successfully operate in the most extreme environments. We are a fast-growing Southern California technology innovator that solves tough, mission-critical challenges for our customers in the aerospace, defense, and commercial markets. We design, develop, and manufacture advanced products for ground, maritime, and airborne applications.

We’re seeking a Chief Engineer to join our growing organization to drive successful execution of key technical efforts for DoD applications. As Chief Engineer, you will be responsible for guiding development of new and existing efforts performed by a multi-disciplinary team of electrical, mechanical, firmware, and software engineers. Your role will cover both technical and managerial duties with expectations that you can:

Contribute technical output in your field (e.g. electrical, mechanical, software designs).
Assess the quality of electronic, mechanical, and software engineering work from other engineers to prevent over-engineering and to eliminate overly complex approaches.
Influence the technical direction of each program in coordination with their customers (particularly when unexpected issues arise) to ensure that only the simplest and most direct path is chosen.
Support documentation and testing efforts so that designs can be fully qualified and certified against various military and avionics standards.
Support proposal and costing efforts.

While Intellisense achieves the same levels of certification as large aerospace primes, as a small business Intellisense does so with a mindset of practicality and simplification in order to achieve lower cost and great agility for our customers without compromising quality. Rather than dogmatic or formalized processes that slow innovation, Intellisense expects its staff to have a deep technical understanding of problems that arise to enable pragmatic and efficient problem solving. As such your role as the Chief Engineer at Intellisense will not be high-level and process-focused but rather will consist of direct technical design contributions as well as oversite of the work of others to ensure that successful technical execution is achieved.

This is an on-site role located in Torrance, CA

Responsibilities:

Write proposals for SBIR (Small Business Innovative Research) grants as well as supporting the writing and costing of non-SBIR proposals led by the Intellisense business development department.
Guide testing efforts (e.g., MIL-STD-810, 461, 704, DO-178, etc.) on multiple programs to ensure that the testing performed prioritizes the right aspects of each system to achieve robust and reliable products.
Support creation and presentation of customer deliverables including documents, artifacts, and presentations required for SFR, SRR, PDR, CDR, etc. as well as certification documents.
Engage in hands-on design, troubleshooting, and problem-solving as needed in areas of expertise.
Assert lessons learned and proven design elements in new designs and products.
The ideal candidate is equally comfortable at a lab bench, in a design review, and in a room with a Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) or Program Manager discussing schedule and cost.
Perform other duties as assigned.

Mentorship & Project Support:

Mentor the engineering team by assessing the quality and simplicity of engineering work produced, and offer guidance to improve those designs.
Set expectations and offer exemplary work product examples to achieve the best work product from the engineering team

Requirements:

Senior Engineering Leadership: BS in Engineering backed by 20+ years of hands-on and strategic engineering experience.
5+ years driving technical execution within aerospace, defense electronics, and mission systems.
Systems Engineering & Architecture: Proven track record in complex analytical problem-solving and full-lifecycle systems engineering.
Hands-on Technical Expertise: Extensive experience designing, testing, and troubleshooting advanced electronic, electromechanical, and embedded software systems.
Collaborative and adaptable, able to work effectively with diverse teams and stakeholders.
Strong verbal and written communication skills, with experience presenting to customers, program managers, and technical teams.
Ability to manage multiple projects, prioritize tasks, and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.

What You Can Expect:

The ability to innovate, transition a prototype technology into a new product, and to be rewarded.
The chance to continually work on new differentiating technologies and implement simple elegant solutions to meet customer needs and that make an impact.
Leadership that enables its engineers with all the tools they need to be successful

Pay Range: $200,000 - $300,000 (However, base salary for this position will vary based on your skills, qualifications, and experience)

Benefits:

4 Weeks PTO a year (including 40 hours of PTO your first day)
10 paid holidays
401(k) with 100% employer matching up to 4% of salary (no vesting period)
Multiple options for Medical, Vision, Dental Insurance plans
Health Savings Accounts
Flexible Spending Accounts
Tuition Assistance (30% of Tuition with a minimum qualifying grade)
100% Paid Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
100% Paid Basic Life and AD&D Insurance
100% Paid Workers Compensation Insurance
Voluntary Life Insurance

The unique culture at Intellisense offers the entrepreneurial spirit of a smaller company with the support and expertise of a larger organization. We are looking for individuals that have a wide breadth of experience while also being subject matter experts in their respective field.

If you require reasonable accommodation in completing this application, interviewing, completing any pre-employment testing, or otherwise participating in the employee selection process, please contact us by phone at (310) 320-1827 or by email at [email protected]

Unless otherwise stated in the requirements section of an individual job listing, our positions require U.S. Citizenship, U.S. Permanent Residency, or other status as a U.S. Person as defined by 8 USC 1324b(a)(3).
