We’re partnering with an innovative aviation technology company developing next-generation flight-control and avionics systems focused on improving safety, simplifying pilot workload, and enabling more accessible flight. This is a high-impact role working on flight-critical electronics within a fast-paced engineering environment.

The Role

• Develop, test, and implement electrical and avionics hardware for a flight-control/flight-management platform
• Design electronics to meet industry and environmental compliance standards (e.g., DO-160, DO-254)
• Provide hands-on troubleshooting and support for flight-critical electronics in a systems integration lab
• Collaborate cross-functionally with systems and other engineering teams to ensure requirements are met/exceeded
• Create test plans and procedures
• Design and build test fixtures

Requirements

• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering (or similar)

Preferred experience

• Digital/analog/power electronics product design (strong preference for digital electronics)
• Schematic capture + PCB layout (Altium Designer or similar)
• Documentation/change control (Excel-based or PLM/ERP)
• Product lifecycle experience: contract manufacturing interface, component obsolescence, etc.
• Multi-bus connectivity / interfacing: backplanes, ARINC, RS-422, CAN, I2C, SPI, etc.
• BLDC motor control exposure is a plus
• Power supply definition/design with a reliability/ruggedness focus is a plus
• Comfortable multitasking and prioritizing in a fast-moving environment
