The Opportunity Build hardware that matters-right here in Tampa Bay. Custom Manufacturing & Engineering (CME) is seeking an Electrical Engineer (Analog) or Electrical Engineer II to design, develop, test, and support electronic hardware used in aerospace, defense, space, industrial, and energy applications. We're open to two levels of experience. This opportunity may be filled as an Electrical Engineer I for an early-career engineer ready to develop strong hands-on design skills, or as an Electrical Engineer II for an engineer who can bring additional experience and take greater ownership of circuit design, troubleshooting, and technical execution. Either way, this is a hands-on engineering role. At CME, you won't be limited to one small piece of a large program. You'll have opportunities to design circuits, simulate ideas, prototype hardware, work at the bench, troubleshoot problems, collaborate with manufacturing, and see designs progress toward finished products. If you want to build your aerospace and defense engineering career in the Tampa Bay area while staying close to the hardware, we'd like to hear from you. What You Will Do Depending on your experience and level, you will: Design and develop analog and mixed-signal circuits for power, sensing, signal conditioning, control, and mission-critical systems Develop and evaluate circuits involving components such as op amps, filters, power supplies, converters, sensors, and control circuitry Perform schematic capture and support PCB design and development Use SPICE, LTspice, OrCAD, or similar engineering tools to simulate, analyze, validate, and refine designs Build, prototype, test, and troubleshoot electronic hardware in the lab Use oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, function generators, and other test equipment to characterize circuit performance Analyze test results, identify root causes, and implement design improvements Select electronic components based on electrical requirements, performance, availability, reliability, and application needs Work with suppliers and technical vendors to identify components and engineering solutions Collaborate with mechanical, software, manufacturing, quality, and test personnel throughout the product lifecycle Develop schematics, specifications, test procedures, technical reports, and other engineering documentation Support designs from concept and prototype through verification, manufacturing, and production Participate in design reviews and communicate technical findings, risks, and recommendations Support additional engineering activities as part of CME's collaborative, hands-on engineering team What You Bring Electrical Engineer I This level is designed for a recent graduate or early-career electrical engineer who has a strong technical foundation and wants to develop practical engineering experience.

You should bring:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering 0-2 years of relevant electrical engineering experience GPA of 3.0 or higher preferred Academic, internship, co-op, research, military technical, senior design, or project experience involving analog electronics Foundational knowledge of analog circuit design , including areas such as op amps, filters, power supplies, sensing, and signal conditioning Familiarity with schematic capture and circuit simulation tools such as OrCAD, SPICE, LTspice, or similar Hands-on experience with common electronics laboratory equipment Ability to read and interpret schematics, datasheets, drawings, and technical documentation Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills Ability and willingness to learn from experienced engineers while progressively taking ownership of engineering assignments Good written and verbal communication skills For EE I candidates, we value demonstrated curiosity and hands-on ability as much as years of experience. Internships, senior projects, robotics, electronics projects, research, military experience, maker projects, and other practical engineering work can all demonstrate your potential. Electrical Engineer II This level is intended for an engineer who has developed a solid foundation in electrical engineering and is ready to take greater independent ownership of designs and technical problems .

You should bring:

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering Typically 2-5+ years of relevant electrical engineering experience Demonstrated professional experience designing, analyzing, testing, and troubleshooting analog or mixed-signal electronic circuits Practical knowledge of analog circuit design, including areas such as op amps, filters, power conversion, power supplies, sensing, signal conditioning, and control circuitry Experience using schematic capture and circuit simulation tools such as OrCAD, SPICE, LTspice, or comparable platforms Strong hands-on laboratory skills and experience debugging electronic hardware Ability to translate system or product requirements into practical circuit-level designs Experience selecting components and evaluating technical tradeoffs involving performance, cost, reliability, availability, and manufacturability Ability to independently investigate technical problems, determine root causes, and develop effective solutions Experience developing clear engineering documentation and communicating design decisions Ability to work effectively across engineering, manufacturing, quality, suppliers, and other technical functions Ability to manage multiple engineering assignments and drive work from concept through completion Experience with aerospace, defense, military, space, power electronics, embedded hardware, or ruggedized electronic systems is beneficial but not required. How the Levels Differ At Electrical Engineer I , you'll work with guidance from more experienced engineers while developing your ability to independently design, analyze, test, and document electronic hardware. At Electrical Engineer II , you'll be expected to operate with greater independence, own more complex technical assignments, make and defend engineering decisions, troubleshoot difficult hardware problems, and help move designs successfully through development and production. The position and level offered will be based on the selected candidate's education, experience, technical capabilities, and demonstrated ability to perform the responsibilities of the role.
