Original job description

Battelle delivers when others can’t. We conduct research and development, manage national laboratories, design and manufacture products and deliver critical services for our clients - whether they are a multi-national corporation, a small start-up or a government agency.

We recognize and appreciate the value and contributions of individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and experiences and welcome all qualified individuals to apply. Job Summary

“From Silicon to Systems” – We are a multidisciplinary team bringing together expertise in electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, cybersecurity, and related technical disciplines to develop solutions for complex government and industrial challenges.

Battelle’s Advanced Microsystem Solutions group is seeking an early-career Computer Engineer to support the analysis and modeling of complex cyber-physical systems. The engineer will work with multidisciplinary teams to understand how hardware, software, firmware, communications, sensors, and physical processes interact within systems such as embedded electronics, unmanned systems, satellites, and advanced microelectronics.

This position applies electrical and computer engineering fundamentals to systems engineering activities, including system decomposition, interface and requirements analysis, model development, technical data analysis, and assessment of system risk. The engineer will work with experienced technical staff and progressively assume responsibility for system analysis, modeling, documentation, and deliverables.

This position will be based out of Battelle’s offices in Columbus, Ohio. The position requires regular access to Battelle facilities and laboratory environments.

Responsibilities

Analyze and decompose cyber-physical systems to identify components, interfaces, functions, dependencies, and system behavior.
Develop system models and support requirements, interface, and technical risk analyses using available engineering evidence.
Apply electrical and computer engineering fundamentals to analyze interactions among hardware, software, firmware, communications, sensors, and physical processes.
Use scripting, engineering analysis, data-processing methods, and AI-assisted tools, including large language models, to organize, interpret, and evaluate technical information.
Document technical findings, assumptions, evidence, and information gaps while collaborating with multidisciplinary engineering teams.

Key Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a closely related engineering discipline with 0–3 years of relevant experience; or a graduate degree in a related engineering discipline.
Foundational knowledge of electrical systems, digital electronics, computer architecture, embedded systems, and hardware-software interfaces.
Ability to interpret engineering documentation, including system architecture diagrams, specifications, interface descriptions, schematics, and test results.
Experience developing software in Python through coursework, research, internships, projects, or professional experience, including object-oriented and modular programming.
Experience with software development practices such as version control, package and dependency management, virtual environments, debugging, and automated testing.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, and technical communication skills, with the ability to learn unfamiliar technical domains.
Must be a U.S. Citizen with the ability to obtain and maintain a DoD Top Secret security clearance.

Preferred Qualifications

Coursework, research, internships, or project experience involving embedded systems, cyber-physical systems, robotics, autonomous systems, avionics, automotive systems, control systems, or similar technologies.
Experience with Python, MATLAB, C/C++, or similar engineering analysis or programming languages.
Hands-on experience with electronics, laboratory instrumentation, hardware testing, system integration, or troubleshooting.
Exposure to systems engineering activities such as system modeling, SysML, Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE), requirements development, integration, verification, or validation.
Exposure to cybersecurity, systems security engineering, threat modeling, vulnerability analysis, or technical risk assessment.
Active DoD security clearance.

Compensation Data

Battelle is committed to fair and equitable compensation practices. The salary range for this role is $71,200 - $101,400, in addition to our comprehensive benefits package. A candidate’s salary is determined by various factors, including but not limited to education, relevant work experience, skills, and certifications. Salary ranges may vary based on geographic location and market conditions.

Benefits: Live an Extraordinary Life We care about your well-being, not just on the job. Battelle offers comprehensive and competitive benefits to help you live your best life.

Balance life through a compressed work schedule: Most of our team follows a flexible, compressed work schedule that allows for every other Friday off - giving you a dedicated day to accomplish things in your personal life without using vacation time.
Enjoy enhanced work flexibility, including a hybrid arrangement: You have options for where and when you work. Our Together with Flexibility model allows you to work 60% in-office and 40% remote, with Monday and Tuesday as common in-office days, dependent on team and position needs.
Take time to recharge: You get paid time off to support work-life balance and keep motivated.
Prioritize wellness: Stay healthy with medical, dental, and vision coverage with wellness incentives and benefits plus a variety of optional supplemental benefits.
Better together: Coverage for partners, gender-affirming care and health support, and family formation support.
Build your financial future: Build financial stability with an industry-leading 401(k) retirement savings plan. For most employees, we put in 5 percent whether you contribute or not, and match your contributions on top of that.
Advance your education: Tuition assistance is available to pursue higher education.

A Work Environment Where You Succeed For brilliant minds in science, technology, engineering and business operations, Battelle is the place to do the greatest good by solving humanity’s most pressing challenges and creating a safer, healthier and more secure world.
