ESSENTIAL JOB FUNCTIONS:

The overriding business objective for the Electrical Engineer 2 will be to help grow the business by successfully designing innovative aircraft power systems. The key performance objectives for this position are described below.

Design Innovative Power Systems. The successful Electrical Engineer 2 will leverage their skill and experience to design new technology electrical power systems which offer substantial benefits in weight, cost, and/or reliability over traditional approaches. The Electrical Engineer 2 will participate in technology trade studies and perform detailed design, analysis, testing, and draft the documentation required to successfully launch new products. Engineering technicians, PCB designers, and mechanical engineers will be provided as support in a team approach. The ability to create innovative designs, often for flight critical systems in harsh airborne environments, is a desired outcome of the EE2 tenture. The successful Electrical Engineer 2 candidate will be capable of designing, or learning to design, AC-DC, DC-DC, DC-AC power conversion, motor controls, magnetics design, PCB layout, EMI filtering, and power distribution systems with support and direction from a senior staff member. We are looking for high performance engineers with a desire to expand their knowledge in power system product development.
