The following job functions are a basic requirement but are not limited to and may be assigned other duties.

Assist with design and drafting of wiring harnesses, schematics, and electrical assemblies for UAS platforms.
Support integration of avionics, payloads, power systems, and sensors under supervision.
Participate in prototype assembly, bench testing, and electrical continuity verification.
Create and maintain engineering documentation including cable drawings, harness layouts, and part lists.
Conduct basic electrical analysis such as voltage drop, load balancing, and circuit validation.
Assist in troubleshooting electrical issues during integration and flight test activities.
Collaborate with mechanical and software engineers to ensure cohesive system design.
Maintain adherence to aerospace standards and safety protocols in all work performed.

REQURIED QUALIFICATIONS
The following are a non-exhaustive list of qualifications for the position:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or related field required.

0–2 years of professional engineering experience (internship or co-op experience preferred).
Exposure to basic electrical design, testing, or prototyping environments.

Familiarity with schematic capture tools (e.g., Altium, OrCAD, KiCad).
Understanding of basic circuit theory, wiring practices, and connectors used in aerospace or robotics.
Experience reading electrical drawings and performing continuity or resistance checks.
Working knowledge of standard lab tools such as multimeters, oscilloscopes, and power supplies.

Strong attention to detail and commitment to precision.
Collaborative mindset and willingness to learn from senior engineers.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
Analytical problem-solving skills with a proactive approach.
Ability to stay organized in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

Coursework or specialization in avionics, embedded systems, or power electronics.

Internship or project experience with drones, robotics, or other electromechanical systems.
Familiarity with design for manufacturing and electrical safety standards.

Basic scripting or automation experience (Python, MATLAB, or similar).
Exposure to EMI/EMC testing or environmental qualification procedures.

Curiosity to explore system-level design concepts.
