Principal Level Electrical Engineer

The Radar Digital Products (RDP) Department at Raytheon is seeking an experienced Principal level Electrical Engineer to verify FPGA based designs for control and/or signal processing radar applications.

This position can be for the Tewksbury, MA location or the Marlborough, MA location.

What You Will Do

• Own or contribute to the successful completion of FPGA-based designs, on time and on budget
• Verify designs utilizing self-checking techniques with directed and constrained random tests, while tracking functional and code coverage using UVM
• Create complete documentation including verification plan and report
• Demonstrate self-motivation, with little supervision required
• Work cooperatively with systems, hardware, software engineers, and program management to ensure product success
• Support internal and external technical reviews

Qualifications You Must Have
