Essential Functions:

• Design and develop mixed-signal Printed Wiring Assemblies (PWAs) from requirements through released, production-ready hardware.

• Derive requirements; select components; perform circuit design and analysis; and define circuit-level verification and test methods.

• Review Printed Wiring Board (PWB) layouts and collaborate with manufacturers to resolve fabrication and assembly questions.

• Design or specify test methods, automated test equipment, test sets, and cable harnesses used to verify electronic hardware.

• Perform hardware bring-up, troubleshooting, test, checkout, and redesign activities for prototypes and production hardware.

• Support production operations by diagnosing electrical issues and coordinating timely, configuration-controlled corrective actions.

• Work with systems, mechanical, software, manufacturing, quality, supply-chain, and program teams through design, integration, and test.

• Support engineering estimates, schedules, design documentation, and internal and external design-review material.

• Support procurement by evaluating technical alternatives and addressing component obsolescence or availability issues.

• Work onsite in Ashaway, Rhode Island. Occasional business travel may be required to other L3Harris sites and customer test facilities.

• Be eligible to obtain and maintain a United States Government Secret security clearance for continued employment.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline

• Two or more years of electrical engineering experience in a product-development environment.

• Experience with mixed-signal circuit board design and development, including requirements derivation, component selection, circuit design and analysis, test, and troubleshooting.

• Experience moving electronic designs from concept through verification, release, integration, and production support.

• Ability to communicate technical decisions clearly in written documentation, design reviews, and cross-functional discussions.

• United States citizenship and the ability to obtain and maintain a United States Government Secret security clearance for continued employment.

Preferred Additional Skills:

• Experience developing and simulating firmware (VHDL) for FPGAs (AMD and/or Microchip) and with FPGA design tools

• Experience with Siemens Xpedition or Cadence OrCAD

• Experience with Xilinx/AMD or Microchip FPGAs and FPGA design tools

• Experience with electronics used in maritime, defense, or other high-reliability applications.

• Experience designing automated test equipment, test sets, or cable harnesses.

• Familiarity with configuration management, engineering change control, and production documentation.
