Flight Termination Electronics Design Engineer IV

Description

Join Our Team as an Electronics Engineer where you will work on the development of a sophisticated state‑of‑the‑art avionics product in a world‑class Integrated Product Development environment.

Location:

This position does not support teleworking; you will be located near our Lockheed Martin Space facility in Littleton CO and be expected to work a flexible 9x80 schedule in the office full‑time.

Support lead engineer(s) in the potential design and development, analysis, test, and troubleshooting of flight electronics hardware. You’ll have an opportunity to work on a world‑class program that supports a nation’s capabilities.

• Familiarity with component design and certification activities adhering to RCC‑319 flight termination system safety requirements.
• Support the primary design engineer with any Flight Termination System design activities that will be required for upcoming technology insertions.
• Responsible for generating design artifacts (SCD, ICD, IDD, Analysis, etc.) to support various technical forums and milestone reviews (SRR/SDR, PDR, CDR).
• Drive best‑practices into all aspects of electronics design, development, manufacturing, production, component qualification, acceptance, etc.
• Coordinate with internal (e.g., Systems Engineering, Integration & Test, etc.) and/or external stakeholders (Suppliers, Customers, etc.) to drive design efforts, requirement development, part selection/evaluation/analysis, parts procurement, obsolescence planning, etc.
• Support/lead efforts in electronics design analysis activities to include worst‑case analysis, part‑stress analysis, bent‑pin analysis, sneak‑circuit analysis, etc.
• Work with suppliers/vendors/production house on a recurring basis to drive component delivery on‑time and on‑schedule.
• Own component production, delivery, and all aspects of engineering closeouts (QNotes; End‑Item Data Packages, MRB, FRB, etc.).
• Lead specific topics (as applicable) during engineering reviews (e.g., Change Review Board, Engineering Review Board, Quality Review Board, Material Review Board, Failure Review Boards, etc.).
• As needed, lead test planning efforts, troubleshooting, failure investigation, fishbone analysis, etc.
• Mentor teammates on best‑practices associated to electronics design, test, and close‑out activities.

• Establishing board level requirements
• Board or box test requirements
• Schematic generation and schematic capture
• Printed wiring board layout oversight
• Parts selection
• Flow FPGA or ASIC design requirements to ASIC/FPGA team to determine which functions to put in an ASIC/FPGA
• Parts stress analysis
• Board/Circuit Card Assembly (CCA) worst‑case analysis
• Board test development
• Design & requirements verification for electronics components (Component, CCA, Box)

• Experience in designing and troubleshooting electronic hardware.
• Previously worked on integrated product teams.
• 5+ years of professional experience for this role.
• Willing and able to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret clearance; US Citizen.

• Bachelor of Science or higher from an accredited college in Electrical Engineering or related discipline, or equivalent experience/combined education.
• Experience as a Product Responsible Engineer or equivalent leading design activities.
• Experience in multiple electronic design and analysis activities (3 or more):
  Worst Case Analysis, Part‑Stress Analysis, Monte Carlo Simulations, Signal & Power Integrity Analysis, Circuit Stability Design & Verification, PWB/PCB/CCA design, or development lab experience.
• Experience leading/supporting Analog &/or Digital design for new development.
• Experience using Electronics Design CAD tools such as Zuken, Mentor Graphics/DxDesigner, Saber, etc.
• Willing and able to obtain and maintain a DoD Secret clearance; US Citizen.

• Familiarity with RCC‑319 flight termination system safety aerospace design standards and testing.
• Self‑motivated & willing to dive into problems outside comfort zone.
• Demonstrated ability to quickly close out near‑term tasking or address in a timely…
