Job Description
The Work
We are seeking a Hardware Engineer Lead / Architect to drive the design, development, and production of a high density, submarine compatible compute platform. The role will own the full lifecycle-from concept through detailed design, prototyping, verification, and production-ensuring power, thermal, reliability, and modularity requirements are met in a constrained naval environment.
Basic Qualifications
• Education typically aligns with a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline with 3+ years of related experience.
• Lead the end to end hardware development lifecycle (concept, architecture, detailed design, prototyping, verification, production, and transition to sustainment).
• Engineer reliability and fault tolerance: redundant system design, failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), health monitoring, alerting, and maintainability plans.
• Architect modular, scalable compute infrastructure: blade servers, GPU clusters, PCIe/NVLink high speed interconnects, and edge compute packaging that can be deployed as a "rack as a unit."
• Drive system modernization/technology refresh processes, evaluating emerging COTS components and overseeing integration into the production line.
Desired skills
• Design to Production: Proven ability to shepherd a hardware concept through detailed design, prototype, verification, low rate production, and hand off to sustainment/manufacturing.
• System modernization / technology refresh process knowledge
• Compute Architecture: Experience with blade servers, GPU clusters, high speed interconnects (PCIe, NVLink), and edge compute constraints.
• COTS high density computing component selection
• Computing enclosures with high power and cooling requirements
• Emerging Authority - Recognized as a subject matter expert in high density power/thermal design with production experience.
• Motivated Learner - Eager to stay current with emerging technologies and to apply them to novel naval environments.
• Problem Solver - Ability to translate abstract requirements into concrete, space constrained, submarine qualified solutions.
