Dayton, OH (On-Site/Office)
As a Journeyman Electrical Engineer, you'll join the cross-functional team turning Phalanx Griffon (PG) from digital design into flight-ready hardware for Major Release 2 (FY 25-27). You'll focus on power distribution, wiring harnesses, interface-control documentation, and EMI/EMC compliance for the Nomad open-architecture chassis-supporting lab builds, environmental tests, and aircraft installation.
Essential Job Functions:
• Hardware Integration & Schematics
• Develop and update wiring diagrams, pin-outs, and cable assemblies for Nomad processing cards, crypto devices, and SATCOM interfaces.
• Calculate load analyses and circuit protection to meet platform SWaP-C and MIL-STD-704/1275 power-quality requirements.
• Lab & Bench Support
• Assemble and troubleshoot PG line-replaceable units in the Integration SIL; perform continuity checks, power-on verification, and firmware updates.
• Instrument test setups (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers) and document results for design-to-test traceability.
• Environmental & EMI/EMC Preparation
• Assist senior engineers in vibration, thermal, and EMI/EMC pre-qualification tests (MIL-STD-810/461); capture redlines and support corrective actions.
• Documentation & Configuration Control
• Maintain interface-control documents (ICDs), bills of material (BOM), and part-number trees inside the government digital-engineering environment (CAMEO/SysML, Windchill).
• Generate test procedures, validation reports, and engineering-change packages for flight-test readiness.
• Cross-Team Collaboration
• Work alongside Systems, Software, and Test IPTs to resolve integration issues quickly and feed lessons learned into subsequent Product Delivery Orders (PDOs).
• Coordinate with platform SPOs/OEMs on connector standards, grounding schemes, and aircraft power-bus impacts.
Required Skills:
Due to the sensitivity of customer related requirements, U.S. Citizenship is required.
B.S. in Electrical or Electronics Engineering (or related discipline) plus 3-7 years of hands-on hardware design, integration, or test for avionics, C4ISR, or ruggedized military electronics.
Active TS/SCI clearance.
Familiarity with MIL-STD-704/1275 power, MIL-STD-461 EMI/EMC, and aerospace wiring best practices (38999/26482, AS50881).
Experience reading/modifying schematics and using E-CAD tools (Altium, OrCAD, or similar).
Comfortable with lab instrumentation and fault isolation techniques.
Desired Skills:
Prior work on airborne networking, SATCOM, crypto, or cross-domain hardware.
Exposure to Model-Based Systems Engineering (MBSE) and digital-thread environments.
Experience supporting configuration audits, RMF hardware artifacts, or safety-of-flight packages.
IPC/WHMA-620 or NASA-STD-8739 wire-harness certification.
