Job Description

This role provides practical electrical engineering support to a multidisciplinary team (primarily mechanical engineers) in a collaborative, hands-on environment. The engineer helps integrate electrical considerations into product design and development, evaluates requirements, supports design and testing, and troubleshoots issues to build technical expertise.

Key Responsibilities

• Provide electrical input during design discussions, reviews, and troubleshooting; collaborate with mechanical engineers to integrate electrical components into electromechanical assemblies.
• Assist in reviewing customer requirements for electrical feasibility, identifying challenges, and supporting early-stage design/quoting.
• Support development of electrical systems (circuits, PCBs, wiring, test fixtures) using fundamentals like signal integrity, grounding, shielding, and power distribution; help adapt existing products to new needs.
• Assist in creating and executing test procedures (e.g., Factory Acceptance Test, Design Validation Test); support testing, troubleshooting with measurement tools (oscilloscopes, multimeters), and preparing documentation (schematics, BOMs, reports).
• Contribute to troubleshooting, root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and continuous improvement of designs, reliability, and processes.
• Collaborate cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, and other teams to support builds, installation, validation, and process enhancements.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• 3–5 years of experience in electrical design, product development, or similar roles.
• Understanding of analog/digital circuits, power systems, serial communications (RS-232/422/485, Ethernet), signal integrity, grounding/shielding, and power distribution.
• Hands-on experience with electrical test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters) and interpreting schematics/wiring diagrams.
• Experience supporting product testing, verification, or validation.
• Strong problem-solving and teamwork skills in multidisciplinary settings.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with electromechanical systems.
• Exposure to fiber optic systems or high-speed communications.
• Background in aerospace, defense, industrial, or medical device environments.
• Experience with custom or low-volume engineered products.
