Cambridge, MA (On/Off-Site)
Job Title: Senior Digital Electronics Design Engineer
Job Location: Cambridge MA 02139
Onsite Requirements:
* Active Secret
* FPGA/SOC development (Xilinx, Microchip), DDR, PCIe, Ethernet
* Radiation-hardened digital hardware and signal integrity
Job Description:
* In this position you will work closely with multi-disciplinary teams designing, developing, and verifying high reliability digital electronics for use in a wide array of applications. These applications include processor boards, FPGA and SOC boards, memory applications including DDR and high speed I/O. As a senior member of the Harsh Environments Electronics Group, you will help shape digital hardware architectures and lead electronics development activities by applying sound engineering and project management principles.
Responsibilities:
* Translate project and system requirements into well-defined hardware architectures working with cross-functional teams.
* Design and/or complete instruments including microprocessors, power, and analog components.
* Innovatively solve issues, drive completion of the project to schedule, and collaboratively work with other technical contributors.
* Build and test prototypes, debug, and prepare documentation for manufacturing, and support.
* Research and enable innovative solutions for cutting-edge designs.
* Engage other engineers and partners to develop reliable, cost effective and solutions for products.
* Drive solutions to complex problems with limited direction - contribute to requirements development, propose ways forward, and adapt appropriately to changes in requirements.
* Independently performs complex electronic architectures and designs.
* Able to provide insight and suggest design modifications based on simulation results.
* Identify program/system-level technical risks and develop and execute mitigation strategies.
* Ability to manage a task with multiple engineers and effectively communicate status to project leadership and customers.
* Actively mentor less experienced engineers and provide thoughtful, constructive feedback.
* Performs other duties as assigned.
Skills/Abilities:
* Proficiency in electronic design, microprocessor or embedded computing.
* Understanding of design and general computer architecture.
* Ability to write detailed design specifications.
* Computer programming and coding abilities.
* Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
* Excellent mathematical skills.
* Excellent organizational skills and attention to detail.
* Excellent time management skills with the proven ability to meet deadlines.
* Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
* Ability to prioritize tasks.
* Thorough understanding of engineering theories and procedures.
Education:
* Bachelor's degree in Electronic or Electrical Engineering or related field.
* Master's Degree preferred.
Experience:
* 5-7 years' experience in Electronic or Electrical Engineering or related.
* Experience working with and knowledge of trade space for radiation hardened parts.
* Schematic capture and board layout experience.
* Experience integrating and debugging embedded systems.
* Ability to perform circuit simulation using HyperLynx and ANSYS.
* Experience in Mentor Graphics PCB design flow preferred.
* Experience with Xilinx or Microchip FPGA/SOC design flow desired.
* Experience in design for harsh environments as embodied in common commercial and military standards (e.g. RTCA/DO-160, MIL-STD-810, etc.) highly desired.
* Applicants selected for this position will be required to obtain and maintain a government security clearance.
* **This client is a US Federal Government contractor and is legally required to hire US Citizens. US Citizens will only be considered for this role.
* Due to the nature of the work, a United States Government Clearance is required to be eligible for the position**
