4d•$68,900 - $131,100•Remote

About The Position

The RF, ASIC, and MMIC Design Department at Raytheon are seeking an Electrical Computer Aided Design Engineer II (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 and improvement projects. Daily interface with various engineering levels and disciplines, including Electrical, Mechanical, Components, Test, and Producibility Engineering, is required to ensure design requirements are met while considering cost, cycle time, and producibility. Infrequent travel to El Segundo, CA is anticipated.

Requirements

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM)
Minimum 2 years of experience to include at least two (2) of the following: Previous work history with PCB manufacturing or CCA manufacturing principles that affect circuitry and component layout, Experience with the electrical design process, Experience with laying out Rigid, Flex, or Rigid-Flex boards
Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. government issued security clearance is required. U.S. citizenship is required, as only U.S. citizens are eligible for a security clearance.

Nice To Haves

Working knowledge of Analog, Digital including DDR, specific experience with RF, Power, and mixed technology, including multi-layer designs with High Density Interconnect (HDI) technology
Technical PCB design skills using the Siemens design toolset including, but not limited to the Xpedition Layout tool suite with working knowledge of schematic capture, placement, routing, use of the auto-router, constraint manager, and library tools, and use of BluePrint to create complex PCB and CCA drawings, Altium is not used, but transfers over well to the Siemens toolset
Export manufacturing data in both Gerber and ODB++ formats
Use of Valor NPI, Design for Manufacturing rule sets, other Design Rule Checking software
Able to understand and interpret drawings as they relate to PCB’s and CCA’s
Familiarity with IPC 6012 & IPC 6013
Working knowledge of military and commercial design standards, GD&T techniques, and overall producibility considerations related to electronic packaging
Knowledge of RF circuitry and key care abouts when it comes to laying out the board along with filter knowledge
Working knowledge of operating system concepts and implementations, network services as related to Microsoft Windows suites
Active Secret DoD security clearance
