Full Job Description

We are seeking a Senior Avionics Engineer to join a rapidly growing engineering team developing flight‑critical electronics for advanced air and missile platforms. In this role, you will design, integrate, and verify high‑reliability avionics and embedded systems, working closely with cross‑functional teams across hardware, software, firmware, mechanical, and test engineering.

This position supports new system development, active deployments, and customer‑operated hardware in a fast‑paced environment. The ideal candidate thrives in hands‑on design work, system integration, and troubleshooting across both electrical and software boundaries.

Responsibilities

Own full‑cycle PCB design, including requirements gathering, schematic design, component selection, layout oversight or execution, bring‑up, testing, debugging, and system integration
Perform microcontroller bring‑up and design, ensuring reliable integration within avionics and embedded systems
Troubleshoot complex issues spanning electrical hardware and embedded software using lab equipment and basic software debugging tools
Design and integrate power management systems, including power regulation, distribution, and protection
Develop avionics payloads and subsystems, including sensors, payload interfaces, power systems, and networking
Create system interconnect diagrams and define wire harnesses connecting electronic equipment within subsystems
Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, software, firmware, and test engineers to deliver mission‑critical products
Participate in and lead peer‑level and cross‑disciplinary design reviews
Support development, deployment, and sustainment of fielded hardware

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent practical experience
8+ years of experience designing, testing, and troubleshooting complex electronic systems
Experience performing power system and electrical loading analysis, simulation, and validation
Strong hands‑on experience with lab equipment (oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, electronic loads, logic/spectrum analyzers)
Familiarity with thermal and EMI testing and basic embedded software debugging tools
Experience with common electrical and communication interfaces (CAN, I2C, SPI, Ethernet, RS‑232/422, RS‑485, USB)
Hands‑on experience with microcontrollers, including bring‑up and early‑stage design
Strong knowledge of analog and digital electronics and mixed‑signal circuit design
Experience designing multi‑layer mixed‑signal PCBs, including stack‑up definition, impedance control, grounding strategies, and filtering
Understanding of low‑ and high‑voltage power electronics and control systems, including harnessing, wire selection, and connectorization
Excellent written and verbal communication skills
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance

Preferred Qualifications

Experience with high‑end consumer, aerospace, or military embedded systems
Experience with battery‑based and AC power systems
Ability to develop low‑level firmware for system bring‑up and test
Background supporting defense, missile, or aerospace programs
Understanding of environmental effects such as temperature and vibration on electronic designs
