Electrical Engineer

Position: Electrical Engineer

Location: Lexington, MA (Onsite)

Length: 3+ years

Our client is seeking a highly skilled and motivated Electrical Engineer to join a dynamic team responsible for designing, developing, and testing cutting‑edge electrical systems and equipment. This is a unique opportunity to work on high‑reliability systems for various critical industries, including aerospace, medical, nuclear, and more. The ideal candidate will have experience in circuit development, system integration, and a deep understanding of electrical design principles.

You will play a pivotal role in ensuring that projects meet performance, safety, and regulatory standards while working closely with a cross‑functional team to deliver innovative solutions.

• Design, develop, and test electrical devices, systems, and equipment, including communications systems, power generators, motors, navigation systems, and electrical systems for automotive and aerospace applications.
• Oversee the manufacturing process of electrical components and systems, ensuring adherence to design specifications, safety standards, and industry codes.
• Apply electrical power in new and innovative ways to develop or improve products, performing detailed calculations to define manufacturing, construction, and installation standards.
• Direct the manufacturing, installation, and testing of electrical equipment to ensure products meet customer specifications and regulatory standards.
• Analyze customer needs to determine system requirements, capacity, and costs, developing system plans that align with these needs.
• Collaborate with project managers to ensure that production projects are completed on time, within budget, and to the highest standard of quality.
• Develop and implement maintenance and testing procedures for electronic components, subsystems, and systems.
• Evaluate and recommend solutions to customers or public complaints, providing troubleshooting expertise when necessary.
• Inspect electronic equipment, instruments, and systems to verify that they meet safety standards and relevant regulations.
• Assist in defining, describing, and implementing program deliverables and system functionalities, specifically for space‑bound or high‑reliability systems.
• Develop electronic components, software, and systems for a wide range of applications, including commercial, industrial, medical, military, or scientific.

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field is required (Master's degree is preferred).
• Proven experience with high‑reliability systems in aerospace, medical, nuclear, or similar industries.
• Expertise in circuit development for power conversion and distribution.
• Experience with systems interconnect and integration design, including system grounding and signal integrity requirements.
• Strong knowledge of EMC requirements (i.e., MIL‑STD‑461) and the ability to develop associated design requirements from board‑level to system‑level.
• Proficiency with circuit analysis tools such as SPICE/PSPICE.
• Familiarity with laboratory instrumentation, including oscilloscopes, function generators, meters, spectrum analyzers, and frequency counters.
• Excellent interpersonal and communication skills to effectively collaborate with team members and stakeholders.
• Ability to work in a team‑oriented environment and contribute to multidisciplinary project efforts.
• Experience with radiation‑hardened systems is a plus.
• Familiarity with embedded systems development, including C and/or assembly language programming for hard real‑time applications is preferred.
• Comprehensive experience with all aspects of electronic circuit design, including schematic entry using Mentor Graphics tools, board layout, parts selection, debugging, and documentation is strongly preferred.
• Strong background in test planning and execution for components, subsystems, and systems is preferred.
• Due to the nature of the work, an Interim clearance is required, however the candidate will need to obtain a Top‑Secret clearance (active Top‑Secret clearance is a plus).
