ROLE
The Electrical Engineer for the Stingray Product Development Team is responsible for the design, development, validation, and sustainment of electrical and electronic systems supporting the Stingray product line. This role is critical to both new product development (NPD) and ongoing production support, ensuring that electrical designs are robust, manufacturable, testable, and supportable throughout the product lifecycle.

In this high-mix, low-volume (HMLV) environment, the Electrical Engineer will partner closely with Mechanical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Quality, Operations, Test, and Supply Chain to bring products from concept through production readiness and into stable manufacturing. The role requires hands-on troubleshooting capability and a strong commitment to maintaining production flow and first-pass yield.

Requirements

• BS in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related discipline.
• At least 4 years of experience in mechatronic systems.
• Familiarity with SPI and I2C inter-chip communication protocols.
• Experience programming with C/C++ required
• Reviewing, assessing, and creating drawings, specifications, Engineering Change Orders (ECOs), technical reports and other documentation associated with design and build of products.
• Working knowledge of ISO 9001 / AS9100 standards.

Responsibilities

• Design and develop electrical architectures, schematics, and circuit designs for Stingray products, ensuring performance, reliability, manufacturability, and clear lifecycle documentation.
• Collaborate with Mechanical, Systems, and Manufacturing Engineering to ensure effective electro-mechanical integration and production-ready designs.
• Support NPI and design transfer activities, including design reviews, PFMEAs, control plans, first article builds, validation testing, and run-at-rate readiness.
• Provide hands-on troubleshooting and root-cause analysis for electrical issues encountered during production, test, or field use, including resolution of NCRs, ECOs, and production deviations.
• Partner with Operations, Test Technicians, and Quality to address yield losses, test failures, and intermittent issues while protecting schedule adherence and customer commitments.
• Support the development and continuous improvement of electrical and functional test methods, fixtures, and acceptance criteria, ensuring alignment with design intent.
• Analyze production and test data to identify trends, risks, and opportunities for electrical design or process improvement.
• Support Supply Chain and SQE through technical supplier evaluations, component qualification, alternate part approvals, and vendor troubleshooting.
• Promote standardized electrical design practices and documentation consistent with ISO 9001 / AS9100 requirements and continuous improvement objectives.
