• Design and document electronic assemblies and system components by developing accurate engineering documentation that supports manufacturing, integration, testing, maintenance, and future system modifications
• Develop schematics, wiring diagrams, wiring lists, cable drawings, and harness documentation to clearly define electrical connections and ensure systems can be consistently built, installed, tested, and maintained
• Design and develop custom cable assemblies based on system requirements, electrical specifications, and physical constraints
• Prepare detailed engineering drawings and technical documentation that communicate design requirements clearly to engineering, manufacturing, installation, and program teams
• Develop facility layout drawings that account for equipment placement, electrical power requirements, HVAC needs, and other infrastructure considerations necessary to support electronic systems
• Evaluate electrical and mechanical interfaces to ensure electrical designs can be successfully integrated with the overall system.

Hardware Integration, Testing & Troubleshooting

• Build, inspect, integrate, and test prototype and production electronic assemblies , ensuring hardware is properly configured and performs according to established engineering requirements
• Support cable and wiring harness fabrication and testing , verifying electrical continuity, configuration, workmanship, and system compatibility
• Perform electrical integration and system-level validation to identify issues that may not be apparent during individual component testing
• Troubleshoot hardware and system-level problems using engineering analysis, test data, schematics, instrumentation, and other diagnostic methods to determine the source of failures
• Conduct failure investigations and root-cause analysis to determine why problems occurred and develop effective corrective actions rather than simply addressing symptoms
• Recommend design improvements that increase system reliability, maintainability, performance, and overall mission effectiveness
• Support installation, integration, and testing at customer and test locations , providing hands-on engineering expertise when systems are being assembled, modified, or evaluated
• Analyze test results and system performance data to verify that equipment meets technical requirements and to provide engineering recommendations when performance falls outside established parameters.

Program & Configuration Support

• Maintain material databases and Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) records to ensure equipment, components, and associated documentation remain accurately tracked throughout the program lifecycle
• Support configuration management and asset tracking activities to ensure hardware and engineering changes are properly documented, controlled, and traceable
• Prepare technical reports, cost estimates, proposals, and Control Account Manager (CAM) inputs to support program planning, engineering decisions, and execution
• Document engineering findings, test results, and system performance data so technical decisions and system configurations are fully traceable
• Present engineering findings and recommendations to engineering teams, program leadership, customers, and other stakeholders in a clear and professional manner.

Cross-Functional Engineering

• Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, software, manufacturing, and program management teams to ensure electrical designs integrate successfully with the complete system
• Coordinate with suppliers, subcontractors, and customers to resolve technical issues, clarify requirements, and keep engineering activities aligned with program objectives
• Support mechanical assembly and integration activities , taking physical and mechanical constraints into consideration when developing electrical solutions
• Provide technical troubleshooting support remotely and at customer locations when issues require engineering expertise outside the laboratory or normal development environment
• Participate in design reviews, integration activities, test events, and customer demonstrations , providing technical insight throughout the system development and deployment process.

Required Qualifications

• Active Top Secret security clearance required
• TS/SCI preferred
• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related engineering discipline
• Minimum 5 years of relevant electrical engineering experience
• Experience with electrical design and schematic capture tools
• Experience with cable, wiring, and harness design or documentation
• Experience integrating and testing electronic assemblies and complex electrical systems
• Demonstrated experience with electrical troubleshooting, failure investigation, and root-cause analysis
• Strong technical writing and documentation skills
• Strong verbal communication and presentation skills
• Ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary engineering and program teams
• Ability and willingness to travel to customer and test locations as required.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience supporting defense or aerospace programs
