Lead Member Engineering Staff (Electrical Hardware Engineer)

L3Harris Technologies•Camden, NJ

18d•$93,341 - $190,188•Onsite

About The Position

The Lead Electrical Hardware Engineer is responsible for the end-to-end design and development of high-speed digital electronic modules and circuit boards. The role requires expertise in advanced digital design principles, signal integrity, and high-speed data transmission. Work includes reviewing and deriving hardware requirements, developing design concepts, and performing detailed electrical design of circuitry that may include microprocessors, program and data memories, FPGAs, voltage regulators, power reset sequencers, analog circuitry, and interface transceiver circuits. The engineer captures designs as schematic diagrams using CAD tools, participates in design reviews, and collaborates with the ECAD department on printed wiring board layout and routing. After boards are fabricated and populated at the on-campus assembly facility, the engineer tests and verifies the electronics assembly and supports firmware and software integration. The position also involves creating requirements specifications, design documents, test plans, and test procedures. It is based on-site in Camden, New Jersey, follows a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off, and requires minimal travel.
