About The Position

The Product Design and Packaging (PDP) Team at Raytheon is seeking a Sr. Electrical Engineer to join our team as an Electrical Computer Aided Designer Engineer (ECAD). This position is an onsite role, located in Tucson, AZ. The role is responsible for Printed Circuit Board (PCB) designs from conception to manufacturing, including the creation of PCB, Circuit Card Assembly (CCA), and Schematic drawings for suppliers. The engineer will perform Schematic Capture, Component Placement, Routing of Traces, and Gerber/ODB++ file creation using Siemens Xpedition Enterprise and DownStream Technologies: BluePrint-PCB. Design layouts will include Rigid, Flex, and Rigid-Flex assemblies, and work will encompass full designs, re-spins, drawing updates, change notices, copper changes, and process improvement projects. The role involves daily interface with various engineering levels and disciplines, including Electrical, Mechanical, Components, Test, and Producibility Engineering, to ensure design requirements are captured while considering cost, cycle time, and producibility.

Requirements

Typically requires a degree in Science, Technology, Engineering or Mathematics (STEM) and a minimum of 5 years of prior relevant experience
Experience history with PCB manufacturing or CCA manufacturing principles that affect circuitry and component layout along with RF specific layout techniques
