About The Position

SAIC is seeking an Electrical Engineer or ECAD Draftsman with strong experience in cable harness, test rack integration, and Technical Data Package (TDP) maturation for next-generation Hypersonic Missile System Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) test racks. This position provides direct engineering support to Hypersonics HWIL Laboratories, focusing on electrical design updates, technical data package refinement, and the integration of high-fidelity test equipment into the Hypersonic program. The ideal candidate is hands-on, detail-oriented, and highly skilled in 2D electrical drafting, cable/harness documentation, and Zuken e3.Series workflows, including DS-E3 PDM. This role requires frequent engagement with geographically dispersed engineering teams as well as external partners delivering subsystem and test equipment updates.

Requirements

• Strong experience in cable harness, test rack integration, and Technical Data Package (TDP) maturation for next-generation Hypersonic Missile System Hardware-in-the-Loop (HWIL) test racks.
• Hands-on, detail-oriented, and highly skilled in 2D electrical drafting, cable/harness documentation, and Zuken e3.Series workflows, including DS-E3 PDM.
• Frequent engagement with geographically dispersed engineering teams as well as external partners delivering subsystem and test equipment updates.
• Ability to update and maintain 2D electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, cable/harness drawings, and interconnect documentation for HWIL chassis and associated lab equipment.
• Ability to review and interpret Hypersonic Weapon System HWIL electrical architecture, cabling requirements, and chassis-level integration details.
• Ability to strategize and execute intelligent drawing integration into Zuken DS-E3 (centralized Product Data Management), ensuring version control, traceability, and cross-functional usability.
• Ability to collaborate with multi-site engineering teams, suppliers, and government stakeholders.
• Ability to conduct design reviews of HWIL chassis equipment, test assets, and interface control artifacts.
• Ensure all documentation meets DoD drawing standards, program standards, export control constraints, and DoD security requirements.

Responsibilities

• Mature and expand a Technical Data Package (TDP) from prototype-level drawings to MIL-STD-31000 production-ready documentation supporting Hypersonic Missile System HWIL operations.
• Update and maintain 2D electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, cable/harness drawings, and interconnect documentation for HWIL chassis and associated lab equipment.
• Review and interpret Hypersonic Weapon System HWIL electrical architecture, cabling requirements, and chassis-level integration details to ensure alignment with evolving system designs.
• Strategize and execute intelligent drawing integration into Zuken DS-E3 (centralized Product Data Management), ensuring version control, traceability, and cross-functional usability is maintained among a geographically distributed team.
• Collaborate with multi-site engineering teams, suppliers, and government stakeholders to incorporate product updates and maintain configuration consistency across distributed environments.
• Conduct design reviews of HWIL chassis equipment, test assets, and interface control artifacts to ensure compliance with electrical design standards and system requirements.
• Ensure all documentation meets DoD drawing standards, program standards, export control constraints, and DoD security requirements.
