  • Engineering
    Systems Engineer, Electrical Engineering
Job Description & How to Apply Below
Our core competencies include systems engineering, program management, logistics, production support, aircraft maintenance, and aviation/aerospace services. We were founded in 2015 and since our establishment, we have been attracting the best talent in our fields of interest enabling us to provide cutting-edge solutions and support to our warfighters. We understand and provide expert consultation on weapons systems acquisition programs, maintenance/modernization programs, and sustainment programs.

We know defense and we know aircraft systems.

The Senior Electrical Engineer will lead the design, integration, and validation of electrical systems supporting advanced defense applications, including unmanned systems, sensor payloads, and mission-critical electronics. This role emphasizes end-to-end system design, from power architecture and signal flow to subsystem integration and field performance.
The ideal candidate is a hands-on engineer who understands how electrical subsystems interact within a larger system and can drive solutions from concept through prototype, integration, and operational deployment in fast-paced environments.

Essential Job Functions:

• Define and develop electrical system architectures, including power distribution, signal flow, grounding schemes, and interface definitions

• Own system-level electrical design across multiple subsystems (sensors, processing, communications, power)

• Perform trade studies to balance performance, SWaP, reliability, and cost

• Develop and maintain system-level documentation including ICDs, wiring diagrams, and TDPs

• Lead electrical integration across multidisciplinary systems (mechanical, software, sensors, communications)

• Support system bring-up, integration, and troubleshooting at the platform level

• Identify and resolve cross-domain issues (power instability, grounding, noise, interface mismatches)

• Work closely with systems engineering to ensure requirements traceability and verification

• Design and analyze system-level power architectures, including battery interfaces, distribution, protection, and load management

• Support higher-voltage and high-current systems (e.g., ~100

VDC)

• Evaluate power budgets and ensure system stability across all operating conditions

• Integrate sensors such as LiDAR, EO/IR, RF, IMUs, and GPS into cohesive system architectures

• Define electrical interfaces, timing, synchronization, and data flow between subsystems

• Support signal chain validation from sensor output through processing and control

• Perform system-level electrical analysis including power budgets, noise/EMI considerations, and interface integrity

• Develop and execute integration and verification test plans

• Support environmental and electromagnetic qualification aligned with MIL standards

• Participate in lab, range, and field testing to validate system performance

• Support rapid build-test-iterate cycles with a focus on delivering integrated system capability quickly

• Guide subsystem design efforts without being solely focused on board-level design

• Troubleshoot and resolve issues during prototype and integration phases

• Ensure system designs are manufacturable and supportable for low-rate production

• Interface with suppliers and internal teams for integration, test, and production readiness

• Support design for manufacturability (DFM) and integration (DFI)

• Support engineering milestones including SRR, PDR, CDR, and test readiness reviews

• Provide technical leadership within IPTs

• Identify risks at the system level and drive mitigation strategies

• Support proposal efforts and technical planning for new programs

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field (Master's preferred)

• 8+ years of experience with significant system-level design and integration experience

• Strong understanding of electrical architectures, power systems, and subsystem integration

• Experience working across multidisciplinary teams

Hands-on experience with system integration, test, and troubleshooting

• Ability to operate in fast-paced, hardware-focused environments

• U.S. Citizenship and ability to obtain/hold a security clearance
