Overview

We are hiring Electrical Engineers at multiple levels (II, III, IV) to support the design, development, and integration of advanced electrical test systems used in engineering labs and production environments.

This is a hands-on engineering role within a high-visibility defense program. You will work on systems that support validation, integration, and production of complex hardware, including RF, digital, and mixed-signal systems.

This role is not focused on pure design or analysis. It requires engineers who can design, build, integrate, and troubleshoot real test systems that interact with hardware.

What You Will Work On

You will support development of test systems and infrastructure used to validate complex hardware systems, including:

• Test Interface Assemblies (TIAs)
• Cabling and harnessing systems
• RF and signal chain test setups
• Power distribution and measurement systems
• Lab and production test stations

Work includes both engineering lab environments and factory production support.

What You Will Do

• Design, develop, and integrate electrical test systems and components
• Create schematics, wiring diagrams, and technical documentation
• Perform circuit, power, RF chain, and signal analysis
• Select and integrate test instrumentation and equipment
• Build and support test interface hardware and assemblies
• Troubleshoot system issues and perform root-cause analysis
• Support system integration, validation, and production readiness
• Track technical scope, risks, schedule, and deliverables
• Collaborate with design, manufacturing, and test teams
• Support reviews, testing, and system verification activities

What Makes Someone Successful in This Role

• Experience working with test equipment or hardware-integrated systems
• Strong understanding of electrical systems beyond theory
• Ability to troubleshoot across hardware and system-level issues
• Comfortable working in lab and production environments
• Ability to take ownership of work and drive issues to resolution

Qualifications by Level

ENG02 (Electrical Engineer II)

• 2+ years of experience (or advanced degree)
• Experience with electrical troubleshooting, analysis, and test
• Exposure to schematic tools and lab instrumentation
• Able to support test system development with guidance

ENG03 (Electrical Engineer III)

• 5+ years of experience (or advanced degree with 3+ years)
• Strong experience designing and integrating test systems
• Ability to work independently and own portions of projects
• Experience leading smaller efforts or coordinating across teams
• Strong troubleshooting and root-cause analysis skills

ENG04 (Electrical Engineer IV / Principal)

• 8+ years of experience (or advanced degree with 5+ years)
• Deep expertise in system-level design and integration
• Experience leading complex engineering efforts
• Strong background in RF, signal chain, and power analysis
• Ability to mentor engineers and drive technical direction

Required Qualifications (All Levels)

• Bachelor’s degree in STEM
• Active DoD Secret Clearance
• Experience with electrical design, analysis, and test
• Experience with schematic capture and interpretation
• Familiarity with tools such as:
• Altium
• DX Designer
• Mentor Graphics / Capital
• Creo Schematic
• Experience using lab instrumentation such as:
• Oscilloscopes
• Digital multimeters (DMMs)
• Network analyzers
• Power meters

Preferred Qualifications

• Master’s degree in STEM
• Experience with analog, digital, and RF systems
• Experience with mixed-signal design and testing
• Experience supporting hardware/software integration
• Familiarity with IDEs and debugging tools
• Experience with system-level troubleshooting
• Strong communication and technical documentation skills
• Experience leading teams or projects

Benefits

Eligible to apply for benefits after 30 days. We offer:

• Health, dental, and vision insurance
• Life insurance
• Short-term and long-term disability

After 1 year of service:

• 401(k) eligibility

Paid Time Off (Sick Leave – Arizona)

In accordance with Arizona state law:

• You will accrue 1 hour of paid sick time for every 30 hours worked
• Accrual begins on day 1 of employment
• You can accrue and use up to 40 hours per year
• Sick time can be used for personal illness, medical appointments, or caring for a family member

This time can be used similarly to flexible PTO as needed.
