Résumé du poste

Actalent in Colorado is seeking a PCB Design Engineer to lead board-level digital electronics design for avionics and missile hardware. You will drive schematic capture, support PCB layout, perform analyses, and participate in integration, testing, and certification for mission-critical systems.

The role offers hands-on work across the hardware lifecycle, collaboration with IPT teams, and opportunities to tackle complex challenges while ensuring reliability, quality, and compliance with security

Qualifications

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or closely related discipline.
3+ years of professional electrical hardware design experience.
Hands-on experience with digital circuit design and board-level schematic development.
Experience supporting aerospace or defense hardware development programs.
Active Secret Clearance and U.S. Citizenship.
Strong communication and presentation skills.

Responsabilités

Perform board-level digital circuit design and schematic capture for advanced avionics and missile-related hardware.
Support PCB design and layout activities by collaborating closely with layout engineers to ensure robust, manufacturable designs.
Conduct electrical analyses, including Worst Case Analysis (WCA), Electrical Power System Analysis (EPSA), and Failure Modes, Effects, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), to validate design robustness and reliability.
Support integration of electronic hardware into larger avionics and missile systems, working with systems, software, manufacturing, and test teams.
Execute hardware testing and validation activities, including lab‑based bring‑up, verification, and performance characterization of digital boards.
Troubleshoot board‑level issues, perform root cause analysis, and support electronics failure investigations to resolve design and manufacturing problems.
Contribute to hardware certification activities by generating and reviewing documentation, analysis reports, and test evidence.
Collaborate with cross‑functional engineering teams in an Integrated Product Team (IPT) environment to ensure designs meet system‑level requirements and program objectives.
Communicate technical findings, design decisions, and analysis results clearly through presentations, documentation, and design reviews.
Participate in continuous improvement of design processes, tools, and standards to enhance quality, reliability, and efficiency across hardware programs.
