Job Description:
As EMI/EMC Engineer, you will perform design, analysis, and testing tasks for unmanned air vehicle systems down to a subcomponent system level. You will support in finding solutions for real-world problems related to jamming and electronic warfare. Your responsibilities include identifying and mitigating EMI/EMC vulnerabilities, supporting product compliance, and designing reliable hardware for mission-critical applications. Additionally, you will help expand testing capabilities by planning and procuring test equipment.
Daily Responsibilities:
- Debug and mitigate EMI/EMC issues at the board and system level using lab tools such as spectrum analyzers, LISNs, and near-field probes.
- Analyze and improve system susceptibility performance to ensure immunity to field strengths of 50 V/m or higher across key frequency ranges.
- Design and implement RF filtering, shielding, and layout practices to resist GPS jamming and spoofing.
- Collaborate with RF, digital, and systems engineers to review schematics and PCB layouts for EMC, GPS integrity, and radiation resilience.
- Conduct and support lab testing campaigns for emissions, immunity, and GPS jamming resilience following standards like MIL-STD-461, DO-160.
- Select, evaluate, and qualify radiation-hardened components suitable for TID and SEE environments, especially for aerospace or spaceborne systems.
- Develop and maintain internal design guidelines for EMC, GPS robustness, and radiation mitigation techniques.
- Use simulation tools (e.g., SPICE, HFSS, CST) to model EMI paths, coupling mechanisms, or radiation susceptibility.
- Participate in failure analysis and root-cause investigations related to GPS lock loss or EMI issues.
- Provide technical input during design reviews and collaborate cross-functionally to meet reliability, compliance, and survivability goals.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field.
- At least 3 years of experience in EMI/EMC engineering, preferably in aerospace, defense, or high-reliability sectors.
- Proven experience with GPS signal resilience, including anti-jam antenna techniques and RF filtering.
- Hands-on experience with EMI/EMC testing tools and techniques.
- Ability to provide detailed EMI/EMC and EME design guidance.
- Experience with testing standards such as MIL-STD-461C/D/E/F/G, CISPR, FCC, DO-160.
