Electrical Engineer

ABOUT THE ROLE

Join a multidisciplinary engineering team developing terahertz imaging systems for the defense and security sector. In this hands-on role, you will lead mixed-signal board bring-up, debugging, and system integration, working across hardware, FPGA, firmware, and mechanical engineering.

WHAT YOU'LL DO

• Lead board-level bring-up, power-sequencing validation, and subsystem integration across multiple board designs.
• Diagnose signal integrity, power, and RF performance issues, identify root causes, and drive design iterations.
• Coordinate schematic updates and layout reviews with an external design firm, from fabrication through characterization and validation.
• Work with FPGA, firmware, and systems engineers to validate subsystem and system-level integration.
• Develop traceability and test procedures to support increased production volume.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

• Bachelor's or master's degree in Electrical Engineering and 3 to 7 years of relevant experience.
• Experience owning mixed-signal board design from schematic through layout in Altium, including controlled-impedance routing and power protection circuits.
• Hands-on experience bringing up and debugging complex PCB assemblies, including power sequencing, signal integrity, and mixed-signal validation.
• Knowledge of ADCs, DACs, DC/DC converters, RF interfaces, high-speed digital design, and power distribution.
• Ability to work independently, identify problems, and contribute across multiple engineering disciplines.
• Experience in telecom, radar, or complex sensing systems is beneficial. FPGA bring-up experience, including Petalinux or AMD Kria SOM, is also useful.
