Job Description:

As a Sr Principal Electrical Engineer, you’ll take a lead role in a small cross functional team responsible for the requirements analysis, trade studies, and system/electrical/mechanical design of new and future transmit electronic equipment. The design team will ensure the equipment meets all functional requirements, performance characteristics and for the completion of program design milestones. You will collaborate with design engineering, production engineering, subject matter experts and others in the development of this high-power electronic amplifier system to ensure we meet our customers high expectations. Candidates will have demonstrated recent, relevant technical contribution to acoustic systems and shown the ability to lead and mentor others.

We encourage you to apply if you have any of these preferred skills or experiences:

• Acoustic systems for submarines and/or submersibles
• Acoustic transducers or projector applications
• Inboard or outboard electronics
• Power/analog hardware and systems
• Linear amplifier design

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Perform research trade studies analyses of data, in support of customer design proposal, specifications, and manuals, to determine feasibility of the design
• Synthesizes solutions to meet customer expectations and technical performance while staying within schedule and cost constraints
• Leads Modeling and Simulation activities
• Leads concept design activities through development and into production
• Evaluate components to determine performance impacts to existing designs.
• Create and review hardware and system design documentation such as schematics, interface control drawings, assembly drawings and other technical documents to ensure high-quality deliverables.
• Performs detailed technical analyses for a system and electrical subsystems to include: concept, requirements, platform integration, design and life cycle maintenance.
• Performs electrical requirements analysis, requirements definition, functional analysis, performance analysis, system design, detail trade studies and interface definition studies of electrical elements
• Performs technical planning, cost and risk analyses, and supportability and effectiveness analyses for system electrical elements
• Leads customer requirements analysis, develops system requirements and defines allocations to lower levels (subsystem, elements and components)
• Leads and performs the generation and maintenance of electrical work products (i.e. plans, specifications, design documentation, etc.)
• Leads technical design and trade studies documents in support of proposal developments and customer presentations
• Manages lower-level employees

What you bring to the table:

• Exceptional communication skills with the capacity to drive innovation and secure buy-in on concepts and ideas to drive the solution from concept to production.
• Effectively communicates technical and programmatic matters to senior level management, program offices, and internal/external stakeholders.
• Understanding of power/analog hardware and inboard and outboard electronic systems.
• Proficiency with requirements analysis, system and electrical design deliverables/reviews and related tools.
• Experience with system and electrical analyses, trade study development and proposal presentations.
• Experience with system and/or electrical cabinet and component design, specifications and/or upgrades.
• Experience with systems and/or electrical engineering computer-aided design (CAD) tools
• Strong proficiency in designing and developing input power systems and requirements.
• Expertise in amplifier design and characterization with understanding of complex reactive loads.
• Experience with designing and specifying unit controllers, including telemetry, D/A conversion for waveforms, and timing systems.
• Knowledge of cables, connectors, and receptacles, and their selection and specification for various applications.

Requirements:

Requires a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, or a related Science, Engineering or Mathematics field. Also requires 10+ years of job-related experience, or a Master's degree plus 8 years of job-related experience.

What sets you apart:

• A working knowledge of various CAD tools, MBSE, or other digital engineering tools & processes.
