A day in this role — Mesa, AZ Your morning starts by reviewing schematics in Altium for a new interface board destined for a military aircraft. By mid-day, you're on the bench validating CCAs and printed circuit boards, probing signals, and refining I/O assumptions. In the afternoon, you pair with firmware engineers to update embedded code paths, then close the day documenting system requirements and preparing feedback for an upcoming design review. Along the way, you're scanning industry news and standards, pulling in fresh ideas to keep our solutions ahead of the curve. Core work you'll own Design, develop, and validate electrical systems built around CCAs, printed circuit boards, and embedded firmware for platforms that integrate with military aircraft.
