We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to lead our Electrical Engineering Group. This position serves as both a technical expert and a people leader, guiding a team of 5-6 electrical engineers in developing complex concepts into functional prototypes within a rapid development cycle. As a senior member of the group, you will drive the entire design cycle - from initial concept to field testing - and serve as a primary technical authority for circuit design, firmware, and system integration.

In addition to individual design contributions, this role is critical to helping scale our EE Group. You will play a vital role in establishing design standards, streamlining development workflows, and providing high-level technical direction to ensure our engineering deliverables meet rigorous mission requirements.

Project teams include electrical, mechanical, and acoustic engineers, lab technicians, and support staff. The teams work together to create innovative concepts and reliable implementations that focus on customer requirements. Senior Electrical Engineers steer the integration of vital sensing, control, signal processing, and communication functions across projects. You will also serve as a key technical interface for customers, translating their feedback into actionable design requirements.

• Leadership & Team Management:
  Supervise and mentor a team of electrical engineers. Foster a collaborative, high-performance culture while promoting skill development.
• Collaboration & Communication:
  Liaise with other engineering groups, including mechanical and acoustic, to ensure seamless integration of electrical systems. Represent the EE Group in cross-functional planning and decision-making sessions.
• Technical Guidance:
  Lead multi-disciplinary project teams to solve complex technical problems with robust, high-reliability hardware/firmware design solutions.
• Prototyping & Development:
  Guide hardware and embedded software solutions from initial concept through rapid prototyping to production-ready design.
• Engineering Standards:
  Write and review high-reliability embedded C code, helping to establish best practices and code quality standards within the EE Group.
• Design Control & QA:
  Oversee configuration management, document development using version control systems, and ensure design integrity.
• System Optimization:
  Optimize, update, and modernize existing design constructs to meet evolving customer needs.
• Testing & Validation:
  Oversee and participate in rigorous design verification testing and hands‑on field testing of hardware and firmware.
• Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

This position is responsible for overseeing a team of electrical engineers in the design, development, testing, and implementation of electrical systems and components. This position combines hands‑on technical expertise with strategic leadership, ensuring projects are executed efficiently, meet quality standards, and align with organizational objectives.
