Job description
Senior Electrical Engineer
Job Purpose
The Senior Electrical Engineer provides on-site sustaining engineering for Automatic Test Equipment (ATE), Test Program Sets (TPS), test fixtures, and associated Support Equipment (SE). The role covers hardware design, integration, troubleshooting, technical data, qualification support, and engineering analysis that keep ATE test systems reliable, maintainable, and supportable through obsolescence, upgrades, and TPS re-host. Develop and support fielded automated test equipment.
Essential Duties and Responsibilities
Design, develop, update, and sustain ATE, test fixtures, and SE used for repair of electronics, instruments, ground support equipment, and avionics systems
Perform hardware design (electrical and mechanical interfaces), circuit design and layout, component selection based on specifications and reliability, and interface definition between testers and units under test
Support TPS development, re-host, maintenance, and software/hardware integration for automated test systems
Conduct requirements analysis, trade studies, technology-insertion evaluations, modification studies, and root-cause analysis on fielded test systems
Support obsolescence and Diminishing Manufacturing Sources and Material Shortage (DMSMS) research and recommended engineering solutions
Plan, organize, and participate in qualification and verification activities, including System Compatibility Tests (SCT), Engineering Evaluation Tests (EET), Verification and Validation (V&V), first-article hardware/software tests, acceptance testing, and Functional/Physical Configuration Audits (FCA/PCA)
Support preliminary and critical design reviews, formal qualification testing, and related design-review activities
Develop and review technical specifications, system/engineering drawings, test plans and procedures, test reports, engineering management plans, Technical Orders, and other technical data packages needed to sustain maintenance and repair
Identify, review, and recommend updates to technical orders and procedures affected by software or hardware changes
Perform technical investigations and repairs of failing systems spanning analog, digital, RF, electromechanical, and mechanical domains (e.g., avionics, sensors, power, and related SE)
Support cost/benefit, life-cycle cost, risk, reliability, and maintainability analyses and provide engineering recommendations
Document progress, findings, and recommendations in the engineering project tracking system; support Technical Interchange Meetings and Program Management Reviews
Assist with regression testing and sustainment of software documentation and hardware upgrades (corrective, adaptive, and performance-improvement work within existing specifications)
Serve as on-site engineering support for assigned test systems; coordinate technically with responsible stakeholders
Minimum Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or an equivalent engineering degree
Minimum 10 years of applicable electrical engineering experience performing trade studies, requirements analysis, root-cause analysis, and hardware design in support of U.S. military aircraft systems
Demonstrated hardware and software integration experience on automated test systems
Ability to read electrical schematics and design electrical circuits
Proficiency with standard electronic test instrumentation (e.g., digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, AC/DC power supplies; closed-loop servo systems a plus)
Experience with ANSI-C or another scripting language used in automated testing
U.S. citizenship required for installation access and performance on a U.S. Air Force Installation
Ability to travel occasionally (reviews, conferences, vendor & sites)
Preferred / Highly Desired
Direct experience with Automatic Test Equipment and Test Program Sets (e.g., intermediate-shop ATE architectures, bench/rack testers, TPS re-host)
Knowledge of U.S. Air Force aviation maintenance sustainment practices
Support Equipment development to MIL-PRF-28800, MIL-STD-810, ASME and MIL-STD-461
NI TestStand, CVI, LabVIEW, or equivalent; PXI or equivalent modular instrumentation
Product life-cycle management familiarity (e.g., IEEE 15288)
Familiarity with FAR/DFARS as they apply to engineering support work
Experience producing or revising Technical Orders and tester technical data packages
Competencies
Engineering judgment: obsolescence, COTS instrument replacement, configuration integrity, and maintainability of aging test systems
Clear written and verbal technical communication; accurate, timely documentation
Ability to work as part of an Integrated Project Team environment
