The Raytheon Electronic Warfare - Electrical and Electronics Engineering department in Goleta, California has an immediate opening for a highly experienced Principal Electrical Engineer to work on Electronic Warfare (EW) and electronics product development for defense applications.

The candidate will be responsible for design of advanced power conversion circuits and associated analog design for Electronic Warfare & Radar Warning Receiver (RWR) products & subsystems. The candidate will be performing electrical design, electrical design analysis, implementing design solutions, performing simulations, and performing analysis and testing of associated hardware in a laboratory setting.

What You Will Do

Qualified candidates will generate related requirements documents and testing requirements. They will be familiar with the latest technology trends in high voltage and/or high current DC/DC and multiphase AC/DC power conversion, switching power supply topologies, high voltage control loop design and stability analysis, high voltage component specification and selection, and general mixed signal circuit design and analysis. The candidate will work in a product development team environment with other electrical, mechanical, and system engineers.

The candidate is expected to provide technical expertise and leadership to other staff. The candidate may be called on to act as cross-discipline independent product team lead (IPTL) or Responsible Engineer Authority (REA) for multiple projects and power supply module designs. This position requires occasional business-related travel including working at supplier and customer sites on design review, integration, and testing activities.

The candidate is expected to participate in product planning efforts including technology definition, specification creation, workload planning, and costing calculations.

Qualifications You Must Have

• Typically requires a Bachelor’s Degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and minimum 8 years of experience in power conversion design and testing, mixed signal design, and digital design, or 5 years with a related Master’s degree focusing on power supply and analog design.

• Experience with power system design and analysis tools (SPICE, SIMPLIS, schematic/layout design software, MATLAB/Simulink, ADS, Hyperlynx PI).

• Experience with schematic capture, block diagrams, and parts lists for complex electronics.

• Experience in testing electronic products using bench power supplies, signal/waveform generators, high-speed oscilloscopes, power supply stability testers, spectrum analyzers, and debugging tools.

• The ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required prior to start date with the ability to obtain program access after start. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

Qualifications We Prefer

• Experience designing airborne electronic products with attendant size, weight, power, and cost requirements.

• Electrical design and analysis with Mentor Graphics XPedition and Hyper Lynx.

• Experience with design of high voltage and high current power conversion circuit assemblies including specification and selection of PCB materials, high voltage/high current transformers, inductors, and FETs, as well as implementing ADCs, DACs, and supporting analog circuits.

• Experience with various switched-mode power supply topologies and modeling.

• Experience with RF components or specifications and creating POL supplies for RF circuitry.

• Ability to handle fast paced and dynamic product development environment.

• Capable technical leader…
