Full Time 2026 - Digital Design Electrical Engineer II

Entry-Level Digital Design Engineer

Raytheon Intelligence & Space is seeking a motivated Entry-Level Digital Design Engineer to support product development for defense applications. This position is based in McKinney, Texas.

The selected candidate will contribute to the development of ASICs, and/or Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) designs by supporting requirements development, architecture implementation, design, analysis, and laboratory testing. Working under the guidance of experienced engineers, the candidate will assist in translating system-level requirements into hardware designs and help verify functionality through simulation and hands-on testing.

The ideal candidate will have a foundational understanding of digital design concepts, including microprocessors, memory, FPGAs, ASICs, and common interface protocols, with a strong desire to expand their technical knowledge.

In this role, the candidate will collaborate with cross-functional teams, including systems, mechanical, and software engineers, to develop innovative solutions for defense programs. They will also support engineering reviews, documentation, and verification activities while gaining experience working with customer requirements and product development processes. This position offers opportunities for professional growth and may require occasional business-related travel.
