Manager, Electrical Design & Engineering

A client is seeking a team of Electrical Design Engineers to support a large research and development project within the space and defense industry. This role will work as a part of the Electronic Sensors department which is responsible for the design, building, and testing, of any electronic widget that will be launched into space. We are looking to add a dynamic, creative, and skilled Electrical Engineer to work alongside rocket scientist, aerospace engineers, robotic professionals, and electrical technicians to complete the entire product lifecycle of flight hardware from concept to production. This hardware will perform under stringent aero and space environmental conditions. This work involves analyzing, designing, simulating, fabricating, testing, and conducting performance validation and verification of electronic instrumentation systems and circuit boards. These instruments will be put on a piece of hardware, launched into space, and used to capture any type of data for a multitude of space missions. Project include Satellite communication instruments to discover environment destruction, Autonomous Robotic Arms that repair the International Space Station, Interplanetary discovery vehicles to further human exploration, MARS rovers, OZONE atmospheric measurement instruments, RF communication devices for astronauts' communication, etc..
