Digital Electrical Engineer

As a Digital Electrical Engineer, you will play a critical role in developing cutting-edge RF and microwave subassemblies for mission-critical military and aerospace radar and communications systems. You will collaborate closely as part of a highly skilled, cross-functional engineering team—working alongside RF, mechanical, firmware, and test engineers—to design and integrate advanced digital hardware systems, including complex CCAs, flexible circuits, and custom test interfaces.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities:

  • Perform requirements analysis, specification development, and interface definition for digital and mixed-signal components within RF subsystem designs.
  • Design, simulate, and verify complex digital CCAs and flex cables using a wide range of components including processors, FPGAs, high-speed ADCs/DACs, memory, logic devices, and op amps.
  • Utilize schematic capture and PCB layout tools (e.g., Allegro or similar) to create robust, space- and noise-optimized designs suitable for high-reliability applications.
  • Generate block/flow diagrams, interconnection drawings (ICDs), electrical schematics.
  • Develop test support hardware including breakout boards and specialized cable/connector fixtures.
  • Participate in technical design reviews and work collaboratively with cross-disciplinary teams including RF, mechanical, manufacturing, and quality engineering.
  • Support risk management efforts by identifying electrical design risks and developing mitigation strategies.
  • Own design responsibility for performance, schedule, and cost at the board or sub-circuit level.
  • Assist in the design optimization of RF performance including circuit analysis and simulation, component, material, and process selection, PCB layout and mechanical packaging.
  • Team up with technicians and assemblers on test, tune, and debug of products and support production.

What We're Looking For:

Minimum:

  • Bachelor's degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering or related technical field.
  • 3+ years of experience in digital hardware circuit design for CCA and/or embedded systems.
  • Hands-on experience with digital and mixed-signal simulation tools (e.g., SPICE-based simulators).
  • Experience in working collaboratively with firmware/FW, FPGA, and software teams.
  • Knowledge of signal integrity, power distribution, and noise mitigation best practices in high-speed digital designs..
  • Proficient in basic office tools including Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint) and email platforms
  • Familiarity with Engineering CAE/CAD tools such as LabView, AutoCAD, Solidworks, Cadence MWO, and Keysight ADS.
  • This position requires access to technology, materials, software or hardware that is controlled by US export laws. In order to be eligible for this position, you must be a "US Person" under US export laws (or eligible for approval under a U.S. Government export license).
  • Ability to obtain and maintain security clearance.

Preferred:

  • Five (5) to Eight (8+) years experience.
  • Masters Degree in a Technical Field.
  • Active Security Clearance.
  • Familiarity with component selection for high-reliability/aerospace/defense applications.
  • Excellent technical communication, documentation, and organizational skills.
  • Flexibility in work schedules and task assignments; some overtime may be required.
  • Basic computer skills and the ability to read and understand basic English.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail.
  • A team player with good communication skills.
