Job Summary:Senior Principal Electrical Engineer a fulfilling career where you will be able to see the direct impact of your designs in deployed systems with true end-to-end ownership, operating in a smaller, highly technical team. You're not just implementing requirements; you're shaping ruggedized solutions that must perform in the real world under extreme conditions. Engineers here directly influence architecture, design decisions and system-level tradeoffs across the systems. You will lead and mentor engineering teams developing mission-critical embedded computing, high-speed digital systems, advanced FPGA solutions, secure processing and rugged electronics supporting operations across air, land, sea, and space.
Step into a role where you can remain deeply hands-on, take ownership of end-to-end technical work, and shape the next generation of defense and aerospace products. You'll lead innovation and deliver high-reliability, mission-critical solutions from day one.
Job Responsibilities:- Provide strategic technical leadership and execution for complex digital hardware programs from concept through production
- Architect advanced electrical circuit solutions involving secure processing, storage, networking, FPGAs, high-speed interfaces, and extreme environment electronics
- Develop advanced high-speed digital design including 400G+ Ethernet, PCIe Gen5+, DDR5+, and modern interconnects
- Contribute to engineering best practices, design guidelines, and process improvements that scale across the organization
- Execute the development and verification of highly complex circuits, modules, and systems
- Advise senior leadership on technical risks, cost, schedule, and strategic direction
Required Qualifications:- BS in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering
- Typically requires 10+ years relevant electrical design including complex embedded digital hardware from concept through production
- Experience with high-speed and high-performance interfaces, memory technologies, and next generation interconnects
- Experience with signal integrity
- US Citizenship is required.
- This position requires you to access information that is subject to U.S. export regulations. You may only access such information if you are a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., protected individual as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. government
Preferred Qualifications:Experience with any of the following is
