• Education typically aligns with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline with 3+ years of related experience.
• Lead the end to end hardware development lifecycle (concept, architecture, detailed design, prototyping, verification, production, and transition to sustainment).
• Engineer reliability and fault tolerance: redundant system design, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), health monitoring, alerting, and maintainability plans.
• Architect modular, scalable compute infrastructure: blade servers, GPU clusters, PCIe/NVLink high speed interconnects, and edge compute packaging that can be deployed as a "rack as a unit."
• Drive system modernization/technology refresh processes, evaluating emerging COTS components and overseeing integration into the production line.
