Electrical Design Engineer

As an Electrical Design Engineer, you will design electrical power conversion products for aircraft critical systems and cabin applications. Experience the entire product lifecycle, from concept and requirements, through design, implementation, testing and certification and field application. To be successful in this role, you’ll need to be familiar with several technologies including DC-to-AC inverters, DC-to-DC converters, AC-to-DC converters, AC AC converters, power regulation for battery systems, power distribution and control. You can expect opportunities ranging from 10W to 600W+ capabilities. You’ll be part of the reason our customers consider us a premier instrument, avionics, and aircraft power solutions provider.

This position may be for you if:

• You have a master’s degree in electrical engineering or a bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering.
• You have a minimum 5 years of experience designing power conversion products.
• You have proficiency in designing and troubleshooting analog circuits and switch-mode power electronics.
• You have a background in magnetics including power transformers and filters.
• You are proficient with Microsoft Office.
• You are able to work in a team environment.
• You have strong attention to detail.
• You are organized, focused and results oriented.
• You are a problem-solver with critical thinking and prioritizing skills.
• You have excellent verbal, written and interpersonal communication skills.

We would really like it if:

• You have experience designing to environmental requirements such as RTCA DO-160 or similar aerospace, military, or commercial standards.
• You have experience with PADS, or similar schematic capture, and PCB layout software, and PSpice or LTSpice simulation tools.
• You have experience with Design for Manufacture and Design for Test (DFM & DFT).

What you can expect from one day to the next:

• Create schematics and direct PCB layout using PADs
• Research new components, technologies, and methods to incorporate into new designs
• Coordinate with other functional teams, including layout, mechanical, software, and certification engineers
• Build and troubleshoot hardware, including soldering, operation of test equipment, and daily work in both office and test lab environments
• Design and execute test procedures to verify compliance with applicable performance, regulatory, and quality requirements
• Design and integrate manufacturing tools as needed for new products
• Create and document designs in required formats, including BOMs, ECOs, and work instructions
