As an 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.
• A High School Diploma plus 15 years of directly related experience with proper certifications as described in the Functionally Aligned Job Descriptions, 5 of which must be in the DoD or a BA/BS plus 10 years of experience in the respective technical/professional discipline being performed, 3 of which must be in the DoD.
• 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.
