About The Position
The RF, ASIC, and MMIC Design Department at Raytheon is seeking an Electrical Computer Aided Design Engineer (ECAD). This role is responsible for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) designs from conception to manufacturing, including the creation of PCB, Circuit Card Assembly (CCA), and Schematic drawings for suppliers. The engineer will perform Schematic Capture, Component Placement, Routing of Traces, and Gerber/ODB++ file creation using software such as Siemens: Xpedition Enterprise and BluePrint-PCB. The position involves designing layouts for Rigid, Flex, and Rigid-Flex assemblies and working on various design updates, changes, and process improvement projects. A key aspect of the role is daily interface with various engineering levels and disciplines, including Electrical, Mechanical, Components, Test, and Producibility Engineering, to ensure design requirements are met while considering cost, cycle time, and producibility.
Requirements
- Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and less than 2 years of prior relevant experience.
- Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required.
