Job Description
Job Description:
BAE Systems - Continued Engineering Support (Sustainment) is seeking a Lead Electrical Engineer to define the next Generation of Test Stands for the continued support of the F22 Program. The individual selected for this position will be a proven leader with diverse technical capabilities and demonstrated "hands-on" electrical engineering expertise. The individual will lead the hardware design, software development, integration/test, and delivery to the F22 factory of "NEW" test stations for all of the F22 products supported by BAE Systems. These stations will include Digital Modules, Analog Modules, RF Modules, and Power Supplies. The individual must be a self-starter with development experience working with integrated military avionics/electronic hardware and supporting test equipment.
The selected electrical engineer is expected to have applicable experience in the following areas:
Test Stands:
Selecting the appropriate test equipment to effectively test the target hardware, considering existing hardware specifications, hardware test requirements, and cost. The candidate should have extensive experience with all types of test equipment for Digital, Analog, RF and Power Supply testing. This should include but not be limited to Power Supplies, Oscilloscopes, Power Meters, Chillers, Signal/Function Generators, Spectrum/Network Analyzers, Logic Analyzers, and Pattern Generators. Familiarity with all the typical equipment interfaces, USB, GPIB, Ethernet, PXI, PXIe, Serial RS232/RS422.
Hardware Design:
Design of backplane printed wiring boards and ITA. These become the interface between the test equipment and the test target. These will include providing all the necessary power to the target, signal translation between logic families (TTL/LVTTL/PECL/ECL/etc). The Backplane will also accommodate for all control interfaces, serial, JTAG, SPI, clocking and custom digital bus interfaces. These test interfaces will be designed using the Cadence Allegro and/or Altium Designer schematic capture and PWB layout tools. The designer will utilize and implement best practices during PCB design such as EMI mitigation for conducted and radiated emissions, grounding, trace impedance, length matching, power planes, stack-ups, thermal conductivity, signal integrity etc. The test backplanes can also include:
Utilize knowledge of National Instruments family of products (Test Stand/LabWindows/LabView/LabView FPGA) to support the design of test suites that will perform all tests in an automated environment, including control of all test equipment, capturing the test data and reporting/storing results. This task also includes some forensic software analysis to determine how currently released software performs.
Required Education, Experience, & Skills
12+ years' experience in Electrical Engineering or Bachelor in Electrical Engineering with 8+ year(s) related experience
Preferred Education, Experience, & Skills
Hardware experience
Software Experience
Management Experience
