About The Position

We are seeking an Electrical Engineer to design and develop electrical systems for underwater vehicles. This role involves supporting architecture development, schematic design, PCB layout, and system integration. You will contribute to the development of power distribution, motor control, sensing, and onboard computing subsystems, ensuring robust electrical integration with mechanical and software components. The position supports the full lifecycle of electrical hardware development, including design, board bring-up, debugging, and validation. You will also design and document wire harnesses, electrical interfaces, and subsystem interconnects supporting integrated vehicle architectures. Participation in hands-on electrical integration, system bring-up, and troubleshooting during prototype builds and field testing is expected. A strong first-principles engineering mindset is crucial for improving system reliability, performance, and electrical architecture.

Requirements

• B.S. or M.S. in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related technical field.
• 1–7 years of experience designing and integrating electronic systems.
• Experience with schematic capture and PCB layout using ECAD tools (Altium preferred).
• Hands-on experience with electronic bring-up, debugging, and validation using tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and electronic loads.
• Experience integrating processors, sensors, power electronics, and communication interfaces.
• Familiarity with high-speed digital, analog, or power electronics design.
• Experience designing electrical harnesses, interfaces, and system-level electrical architectures.
• Strong first-principles engineering mindset and practical design approach.
• U.S. work authorization and ability to obtain a security clearance.
