About the Role
Join a hands-on avionics team developing power systems and electronics for hypersonic flight vehicles. You will own critical hardware subsystems from initial design through validation and production integration.
What You'll Do
-
Design power electronics PCBAs, including motor controllers, DC-DC converters, inverters, power switches, and power distribution systems.
-
Own hardware through schematic design, bring-up, debugging, validation, and production integration.
-
Define subsystem requirements and develop power system designs within the broader vehicle architecture.
-
Develop high-voltage and high-current systems for actuators, power filtering, and avionics power buses.
-
Support power electronics for ground systems as needed.
What We're Looking For
-
3 to 15 years of experience designing power electronics, including motor controllers, DC-DC converters, or power distribution PCBAs.
-
A BS, MS, or PhD in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
-
Hands-on experience taking hardware from circuit and PCB design through bring-up, debugging, validation, and production.
-
PCB design skills using Altium or an equivalent tool, along with familiarity with SPICE and MATLAB/Simulink.
-
Experience with high-voltage systems, inverters, and EMI/EMC considerations.
-
Background in aerospace, defense, automotive, robotics, or another high-reliability hardware environment is valuable.
-
Must be a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder and eligible for security clearance.
