Job Description & How to Apply Below
This is a mid-level Electrical Engineer opportunity focused on PCB development within a growing engineering team building advanced hardware systems. The role sits on-site in Herndon, VA and covers the full board development lifecycle, from schematic capture through layout, prototyping, and bring-up. RF exposure is a plus but not a prerequisite; the priority is a solid PCB design foundation and the drive to grow into more specialized areas.
This is an urgent hire, so candidates ready to move quickly are strongly encouraged to apply.
Job Responsibilities:
- Design, schematic capture, and layout of multilayer PCBs for complex electronic systems
- Support component selection, sourcing, and BOM management
- Participate in board bring-up, debug, and validation testing
- Collaborate with mechanical and systems engineers to integrate electrical designs into larger hardware platforms
- Work with manufacturing partners to resolve DFM (design for manufacturability) issues
- Document design decisions, test results, and engineering changes
- Support troubleshooting of prototype and production hardware issues
Experience Required:
- 3-6 years of hands-on PCB design experience, including schematic capture and layout (Altium preferred)
- Solid understanding of analog and digital circuit design fundamentals
- Experience with high-speed and/or multilayer board design
- Exposure to RF circuit design or RF-adjacent systems is a plus, but not required
- Comfortable working through the full hardware development cycle, from concept to production
- Ability to work on-site in Herndon, VA full-time
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (or equivalent practical experience)
- Prior experience in defense, aerospace, or another regulated hardware industry is a plus
