Space and Defense Group is seeking a Sr. Electrical Design Engineer to join the electrical engineering design team. This role owns the electrical design lifecycle for complex boards and subsystems. This includes interpreting requirements, defining system and block‑level architectures, producing schematics and block diagrams, validating designs through analysis and test, and producing supporting documentation.

The candidate will also provide PCB design guidance (stack‑up, routing, SI/PI considerations) and hands‑on lab support during board bring‑up. Although it is an individual contributor role, the position may require leading design efforts, mentor junior engineers, and coordinate multi‑discipline teams. The role demands technical depth, foresight, and creativity to anticipate and resolve novel engineering challenges.

If you have technical depth, practical experience, and enthusiasm to work with a high-performing team, this role is for you!

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field.
• 5 years of hands-on hardware/electrical design experience.
• Self-motivated, strong analytic and critical thinking skills.
• Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (e.g., Cadence Allegro, Altium).
• Experience with modeling and simulation tools (SPICE, MATLAB/Simulink, Mathcad).
• Working knowledge of Signal Integrity (SI) and Power Integrity (PI) analysis and practical mitigation techniques.
• Familiarity with power devices/modules or motor control is a plus.
• Proven ability to produce clear design documentation and to support board bring up and lab debugging.

Preferred Qualifications

• Master’s or advanced degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• Knowledge of harsh-environment / aerospace-grade hardware (radiation‐tolerant design, thermal vacuum testing).
• Demonstrated history of both analog (instrumentation) and digital design implementation and commissioning.
• Experience collaborating with SI/PI or FPGA teams and using modeling evidence to support design reviews.

How we care for you

• Financial Rewards: great compensation package, annual profit sharing, matching 401k and the ability to participate in Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Flexible Spending and Health Savings Accounts
• Work/Life Balance: Flexible paid time off, holidays and parental leave program, relocation assistance
• Health & Welfare: Comprehensive insurance coverage including medical, dental, vision, life, disability, Employee Assistance Plan (“EAP”) and other supplemental benefit coverages
• Professional Skills Development: Tuition Assistance, mentorship and coaching opportunities, leadership development and other personal growth programs
• Collaborative and Welcoming Workplace: Inclusive culture rooted in our values, enhanced by Employee Resource Groups, and team-building activities.
