Original job description

Amentum is seeking a mid to senior-level Electrical Engineer in Springfield, VA. In this role, you will be responsible for the design, development, fabrication, testing, troubleshooting, and integration of custom electrical, electronic, and RF systems used in operational and laboratory environments. This position works closely with engineers, developers, and government stakeholders to evaluate new technologies, perform laboratory testing, and develop innovative hardware solutions. You will support the full hardware development lifecycle, from engineering concept development and prototype design through testing, deployment, and field sustainment. The ideal candidate possesses excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills and is capable of managing multiple technical projects in a fast-paced, mission-focused environment.

Job Responsibilities

Design, develop, fabricate, integrate, test, and troubleshoot custom RF and electronic systems for laboratory and operational use.
Design and evaluate custom RF antennas for specialized frequency bands and operational requirements using industry-standard engineering principles, antenna design software, and test equipment.
Develop electrical schematics and design multilayer printed circuit boards (PCBs) using CAD tools such as Altium Designer.
Develop, program, and debug embedded microcontrollers and circuit board controllers using C/C++, Arduino, STM32, ESP32, or similar embedded platforms.
Perform and oversee precision micro-miniature soldering and rework of surface-mount (SMT) and through-hole electronic assemblies in accordance with IPC standards.
Design, fabricate, modify, and validate prototype electronic assemblies and RF circuits.
Analyze, characterize, and optimize RF antennas, filters, amplifiers, and transceivers using spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers (VNA), signal generators, oscilloscopes, and other laboratory instrumentation.
Perform component-level circuit board analysis and troubleshooting, identifying failed components, determining root causes, and validating corrective actions.
Design and integrate RF subsystems, miniature transceivers, embedded sensors, power management circuits, and supporting electronic hardware.
Support new capability development by evaluating engineering requirements, developing hardware prototypes, conducting engineering tests, documenting results, and recommending design improvements.
Support the management and maintenance of an electronics laboratory, including equipment calibration, inventory management, instrumentation maintenance, and laboratory safety.
Develop engineering documentation including electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, assembly instructions, test procedures, and technical reports.
Support system integration, engineering validation, field testing, operational deployment, and sustainment activities.
Collaborate with mechanical engineers, designers, and fabrication specialists to ensure proper electrical and electronic integration, packaging, and manufacturability.

Minimum Requirements

Must have an Active Top Secret US Government Clearance with SCI eligibility. Note: US Citizenship is required to maintain a Top Secret Clearance.
Minimum of four (4) years of experience in electrical engineering, electronics, RF systems, or related hardware engineering disciplines.
Extensive experience designing, developing, testing, and troubleshooting RF and electronic systems.
Experience designing custom RF antennas and matching networks for specialized applications, including use of antenna design software.
Experience designing printed circuit boards (PCB) using Altium Designer or equivalent electronic CAD software.
Experience programming embedded microcontrollers and developing firmware for electronic control systems.
Proficiency performing precision micro-miniature soldering, PCB rework, and component-level troubleshooting and repairs.
Experience operating electronic laboratory equipment including spectrum analyzers, vector network analyzers (VNA), oscilloscopes, signal generators, multimeters, and power supplies.
Experience tuning, testing, characterizing, and optimizing RF antennas, filters, and wireless communication systems.
Knowledge of RF propagation, impedance matching, transmission lines, electromagnetic principles, and antenna performance measurements.
Experience designing and integrating sensors, embedded controllers, power management systems, and RF communications hardware.
Familiarity with SolidWorks, FeatureCAM, or similar mechanical CAD software for enclosure design and hardware integration.
Experience supporting prototype development, engineering testing, and hardware validation activities.
Ability to interpret and develop electrical schematics, engineering drawings, wiring diagrams, and technical specifications.
Strong troubleshooting and analytical skills with the ability to diagnose hardware failures to the component level.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to prepare detailed technical documentation and communicate effectively with engineers and government customers.
Proficiency with Microsoft 365 applications.
Ability to work independently and as part of a multidisciplinary engineering team.

Preferred Skills and Experience

Bachelor's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field.
Six (6) or more years of related experience.
