Job summary

Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control seeks a Power Electronics Circuit Card Design Engineer to own end-to-end power CCAs for missiles and sensor subsystems, from architecture through prototype build and test.

You will collaborate with systems, electromechanical, firmware, and manufacturing teams to meet performance, environmental and security requirements while driving program schedules; emphasis on derating, thermal, and EMI considerations.

Qualifications

• Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering or closely related STEM field; Master’s preferred.
• Minimum 3 years of professional experience in circuit design engineering, with a focus on power electronics.
• Experience designing and analyzing power supply circuits (linear regulators, switching converters) or power distribution networks.
• Experience with Siemens Xpedition or equivalent for schematic capture; Cadence PSpice or equivalent for simulation.
• US citizenship; ability to obtain DoD Secret clearance.

Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end creation of power CCAs—from architecture and schematic capture to EPCAD layout, prototype build and test.
• Lead architecture, schematic capture and EPCAD layout for power supply and power distribution CCAs.
• Design and analyze linear and switching power converters to meet efficiency, ripple, transient and thermal requirements.
• Perform derating and worst-case analyses for power components; conduct circuit simulations to validate functionality and margins.
• Deliver complete design assurance packages for senior review; manage BOM and prototype build activities.

Job description

Standard Job Description

You will be the Power Electronics Circuit Card Design Engineer for the Hardware Engineering team at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control. Our team designs, prototypes and fields high reliability circuit card assemblies (CCAs) that power missiles, sensors and other mission critical defense systems.

What You Will Be Doing

As the Power Electronics Circuit Card Design Engineer you will own the end-to-end creation of power supply and power distribution CCAs — from architecture and schematic capture through EPCAD layout, prototype build up and test. You will partner with systems, electromechanical, firmware/software and manufacturing groups to ensure every design meets performance, environmental and security requirements while keeping the program on schedule. Your responsibilities will include:

• Lead architecture, schematic capture and EPCAD layout for power supply and power distribution CCAs supporting missile and sensor subsystems.
• Design and analyze linear and switching power converters (buck, boost, flyback, forward) to meet efficiency, ripple, transient response, and thermal requirements.
• Define, refine and document power, performance, interface and environmental requirements for circuit card designs.
• Conduct trade study analyses of alternate power architectures and recommend optimal implementations.
• Perform circuit simulation and analysis using Cadence PSpice (or equivalent) to validate power supply functionality, stability, and margins.
• Capture schematics in Siemens Xpedition Enterprise and collaborate with EPCAD to produce robust power distribution layout and routing solutions.
• Perform derating analysis, thermal analysis, and worst-case circuit analysis to ensure power components meet reliability and environmental qualification standards.
• Deliver complete design assurance packages — including data, evidence and compliance reports — for senior review.
• Manage bill of materials, part sourcing, and prototype build up activities, driving cost effective power component selection.
• Support customer meetings, monthly status reporting, and task execution as part of a program team.
