Northrop Grumman Space Systems, Multi-Domain Operations, and Missile Defense Integration Business Unit (BU) has an exciting career opportunity for an Electrical Engineer (Design & Analysis) – Level 5 to join our team of qualified, diverse individuals. This position will be in Huntsville, AL.

The selected Electrical Engineer – Level 5 will support the Ground Weapons System (GWS) program as an individual contributor on the Specialty Engineering RAM team and Technical Leadership team across A&D GWS. The role is responsible for developing electrical analysis products for hardware items that directly support the design and development of the GWS capability on behalf of the Missile Defense Agency (MDA).

• Review suppliers "as-planned", "as-designed", and "as-built" documentation (e.g. interface control document, derating analysis, worst case analysis, qualification test plan and procedure, acceptance test plan and procedure, test report).
• Develop and implement modeling solutions, conduct trade studies and evaluation of system and subsystem performance.
• Frequently collaborate with technical leadership on system requirements generation and associated flow down, subsystem design/analysis, and subsystem performance verification including lab and flight testing.
• Perform the test design process along with the design, analysis and fabrication of specialty test equipment required for environmental testing and handling.
• Perform analyses to evaluate all levels of the system to ensure a cohesive electrical-system solution throughout the development lifecycle (concept, design, fabrication, test, installation, operation, maintenance, and disposal).
• Manage the internal & external electrical interfaces (such as data, power, RF) and develop the corresponding system-level interconnect/block diagrams, grounding diagrams, electrical schematics and global connectivity list for the weapon system.
• Manage hardware command and telemetry implementation (e.g. develop and coordinate calibration and conversion curves for analog telemetry in coordination subsystem engineers, verify electrical/software implementation).
• Verify electrical connectivity implementation (e.g. verify electrical harness implementation, safety-critical circuit segregation, support peer-reviews).
• Develop and evaluate electrical system architecture alternatives in concert with the broader systems engineering effort to select an electrical-system architecture that meets the customer’s needs. Drive open design to completion and solve design issues (e.g. propose solutions, support mass reduction initiatives).
• Perform electrically focused requirement analysis and decomposition as part of the systems engineering translation of customer requirements into hardware and software specifications.

• Electrical Engineer – Level 5:
  Bachelor’s Degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics) discipline preferred from an accredited university and 12 years of related experience, or a Master’s Degree and 10 years of related experience, or 8 years of related experience with a PhD.
• Extensive Electrical Engineering background with an understanding of analog and digital electronics, power systems, Command and Data Handling, Signal Integrity, and Grounding schema.
• Experience executing specialized electrical engineering analysis (Sneak Circuit, Worst Case, Bent Pin, Power/Grounding, Derating, and Electrical Stress analysis).
• Technical experience in systems engineering and/or integration execution.
• Strong electrical engineering design and analysis skills in the application of test hardware design along with the implementation of the design review process (PDR & CDR).
• Review suppliers "as-planned", "as-designed", and "as-built" documentation (e.g. interface control document, derating analysis, worst case analysis, qualification test plan and procedure, acceptance test plan and procedure, test report).
• Working experience utilizing Sneak Circuit Analysis Tools (SCAT).
• Working experience in…
