Position Introduction/Key Duties

Watring Technologies is seeking a mid-level Electrical Engineer to join our team in Huntsville, AL. This is an exciting opportunity to design, build, and test electrical systems for defense and aerospace hardware, from early prototype through production!

Watring Technologies, Inc. is a Huntsville, Alabama, technology-based design and manufacturing company specializing in custom hardware and turnkey solutions. Founded in 1997, Watring’s primary support is in Aerospace and Defense. Our capabilities include hardware integration, testing, and product development, supported by in-house electrical, mechanical, and manufacturing engineering, a precision machine shop, and a wire harness and cable assembly room.

The Electrical Engineer is responsible for the design, integration, and test of electrical and electronic subsystems for prototype and production defense and aerospace hardware. This role works closely with mechanical engineering, manufacturing, and test personnel, and supports hardware from initial concept through build, verification, and delivery.

Key Duties:

• Design electrical and electronic subsystems for defense and aerospace hardware, including power distribution, signal conditioning, control circuits, and interfaces between sensors, processors, and payloads.
• Create, review, and maintain electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, interconnect diagrams, and block diagrams.
• Select and specify electrical components, connectors, wire, and cable, accounting for derating, environmental requirements, availability, and obsolescence.
• Define electrical interfaces and maintain interface control documentation between subsystems and with customer and supplier hardware.
• Develop cable and wire harness designs and drawings, and support the wire harness and cable assembly room during build, inspection, and test.
• Integrate, troubleshoot, and debug electrical hardware at the board, box, and system level using standard lab equipment.
• Plan and conduct electrical testing, including functional, continuity, insulation resistance, and acceptance testing, and document results.
• Support environmental and electromagnetic interference (EMI) qualification testing, including test planning, fixture preparation, and resolution of test failures.
• Apply grounding, bonding, and shielding practices to hardware designs to meet electromagnetic compatibility requirements.
• Perform electrical analyses such as power budgets, wire and fuse sizing, voltage drop, and thermal considerations.
• Participate in design reviews and provide input to mechanical and manufacturing engineering on packaging, routing, and producibility.
• Support manufacturing with work instructions, test procedures, nonconformance dispositions, and engineering changes under configuration control.
• Support proposal and estimating efforts with technical approaches, electrical labor and material estimates, and test requirements.
• Maintain compliance with export control requirements (ITAR/EAR) and facility security requirements applicable to the work performed.

Required Skills, Experience, and

Education:

• Due to facility security requirements, only U.S. citizens are eligible for consideration at this time.
