Electrical Engineer, Specialist
About The Position
L3Harris is seeking an Electrical Engineer with knowledge in analog, digital, or RF engineering. The role participates in complex projects or processes with general oversight, communicates across functions to support operational processes and procedures, improves systems and processes, and contributes to departmental goals and operating plans. The engineer designs, develops, modifies, tests, evaluates, and integrates electronic equipment, components, and circuitry for complex, high-performance hardware systems. The role supports or leads product design and development, with design-for-manufacturing considerations throughout development. Work includes design, documentation, verification, manufacturing debug, and moderately complex redesigns, including changes prompted by component obsolescence. The position may also support vendor capability reviews, specialized algorithm development, presentation and training materials, operating manuals, and test procedures. Travel of 5 to 10% is required.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree and at least 4 years of relevant experience, or a graduate degree and at least 2 years of related experience; in lieu of a degree, at least 8 years of relevant experience.
- At least 3 years of experience in analog circuit design.
- At least 3 years of experience in RF electronics.
- At least 2 years of experience with schematic capture and PCBA layout using Altium or Cadence.
- At least 3 years of laboratory experience troubleshooting electronics in analog and RF domains.
- At least 2 years of experience using a network analyzer, frequency generator, vector analyzer, and digital/analog oscilloscope.
Nice To Haves
- Familiarity with GPS electronics or circuit design.
- Experience with A/D and D/A circuit design, interfacing, and use.
- Familiarity with industry-standard EDA tools for schematic capture, PCB layout, and FPGA development or simulation.
- Experience developing military products.
Responsibilities
- Design, develop, modify, test, evaluate, and integrate electronic equipment, components, and circuitry for complex, high-performance hardware systems.
- Determine design approaches and parameters and assess feasibility within time and cost constraints.
- Analyze equipment, establish operating data, conduct experimental tests, and evaluate results.
- Select components and equipment based on specifications and reliability analysis.
- Identify component operational characteristics that may affect system performance or sustainability.
- Support or lead design activities for new and existing products, considering design for manufacturing throughout development.
- Apply electrical engineering principles to design, development, documentation, verification, and manufacturing debug activities.
- Support or lead moderately complex modifications to existing products, including redesigns resulting from component obsolescence.
- Provide technical solutions to difficult problems and contribute to project milestones.
- Understand and generate schematics for digital and analog electronic circuits and provide guidance for PCB layout.
- Review vendor capability to support development, as needed.
- Apply specialized knowledge in areas such as analog, digital, FPGA, DSP, CCA, power, antenna, and control systems, as required.
- Develop, design, and assess specialized algorithms for underwater acoustics, sonar, communications, geophysical, and other sensor-processing applications, as applicable.
- Generate presentation and training materials.
- Develop and release operating manuals and test procedures.
- Travel 5 to 10%.
