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.

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.
