About The Position

You will be the Circuit Card Design Engineer for the Hardware Engineering team at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control (MFC). Our team designs, develops and fields precision engagement aerospace and defense systems, delivering high reliability circuit card assemblies (CCAs) that power missiles, sensors and other mission critical subsystems. As the Circuit Card Design Engineer you will own the end to end creation of CCAs—from architecture and schematic capture through EPCAD layout, prototype build up and test. You will partner with systems, electromechanical, firmware/software and manufacturing groups to ensure every design meets performance, environmental and security requirements while keeping the program on schedule.

Requirements

Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related STEM field from an accredited university
Minimum 1 year of professional experience in circuit design engineering or a related discipline
Experience with schematic capture tools such as Siemens Xpedition Enterprise or equivalent
Experience with circuit simulation and analysis tools such as Cadence PSpice or equivalent
Experience with developing and refining system requirements, including performance, interface, and environmental requirements
Must be a US Citizen; must be able to obtain a DoD Secret security clearance

Nice To Haves

Experience with MFC circuit card design processes and the Design Assurance process
Experience with military standards and specifications, including MIL-STD-461 and MIL-STD-704
High-speed design experience including PCIe, Gigabit Ethernet, SERDES, or high-speed memory interfaces (DDR4/5)
Experience with Xilinx/AMD FPGA families (UltraScale, Versal)
Experience with Mentor Graphics Hyperlynx or equivalent signal integrity tools
FPGA design experience; familiarity with Verilog, SystemVerilog, or VHDL
Experience with analog and/or digital video system design
MATLAB experience
Demonstrated effective communication skills
Active DoD Secret or Top Secret clearance

Responsibilities

Lead architecture, schematic capture and EPCAD layout for CCAs supporting missile and sensor subsystems.
Define, refine and document system, performance, interface and environmental requirements.
Conduct trade study analyses of alternate design approaches and recommend optimal implementations.
Perform circuit simulation and analysis using Cadence PSpice (or equivalent) to validate functionality and margins.
Capture schematics in Siemens Xpedition Enterprise and collaborate with EPCAD to produce robust layout and signal routing solutions.
Deliver complete design assurance packages—including data, evidence and compliance reports—for senior review.
Work closely with systems, electromechanical, firmware/software and manufacturing teams to ensure seamless integration and testing.
Manage bill of materials, part sourcing and prototype build up activities, driving cost effective parts selection.
Verify that designs meet shock, vibration, radiation and other environmental qualification standards.
