Electrical Design Engineer

Design Engineering Electrical or C4 Systems Associate Specialist/Engineer The Design Engineering role in the Electrical and the C4 (Command, Control, Communications, Computers) Design Engineering team is responsible for executing full life cycle design activity on any assigned task within the subsystem and taking responsibility to overcome design challenges independently. In addition, to be accountable for design fit, form, & functionality, ensuring compliance to requirements across the team. Areas of focus is expertise in one of the following domains: Areas of Focus Electrical: Automotive Power Generation, Storage and Distribution, Automotive Controls of Electro-Mechanical Systems, Automotive Internal and External Lights selection and integration, Power and Data Controllers, Wiring Harness designs including specialty signals types (CANBUS, Ethernet, etc), Vehicle Schematic Development, Alternating Current Devices (Inverters, Battery Chargers, AC Receptacles), and Vehicle Level Software Testing C4: Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) systems: radios/antennas and intercom systems, navigation systems, cameras and electro-optic sensors, video networks, unmanned systems (UAV, UGV, etc), designing wiring harnesses for such systems. Key Job Elements Execute component/assembly level design tasks while keeping supervisor regularly informed on progress and issues encountered. Ensure all designs are peer reviewed by technical lead or assigned mentor. Support test planning, execution, and reporting as assigned under supervision of test lead. Support quality and Root Cause and Corrective Action (RCCA) related activities as requested. Responsible for executing design engineering tasks according to design engineering processes. Responsible for the development of low and medium complexity wire harnesses using CAPITAL software tool. Provide support to the Design Services team for the release of commercial components, wire harness routings, and drawings. Collect supporting data for the development of power budgets, Signal Interface Data (SIDs), subsystem architecture, and subsystem functional diagrams. Collect artifacts for assigned subsystems and coordinate with the subsystem lead to review the supporting documentation. Participate in discussions with customers related to the definitization of Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) for each assigned project. Engage with vendors on the selection and finalization of products. Configure C4ISR Line Replacement Unit (LRU) firmware parameters for demonstrations and testing. Manage configuration files and software versions.
