Electrical Engineer, Journeyman

As a Journeyman Electrical Engineer , you’ll join the cross‑functional team turning Phalanx Griffon (PG) from digital design into flight‑ready hardware for Major Release 2 (FY 25‑27) . You’ll focus on power distribution, wiring harnesses, interface‑control documentation, and EMI/EMC compliance for the Nomad open‑architecture chassis—supporting lab builds, environmental tests, and aircraft installation.

Essential Job Functions

• Assist with the design, develop and deploy military R&D airborne stores and equipment
• Participate in laboratory, ground and flight testing to validate electrical hardware
• Document and communicate proposed electrical hardware solutions with integrated, cross-functional engineering teams in a fast paced highly technical environment
• Use modeling tools for hardware products and systems (Creo Schematics, Creo Parametric)
• Contribute to investments and research that fuel innovation and technological advancements
• Explain technical solutions, practices and procedures to others within the organization

Required Skills Due to the sensitivity of customer related requirements, U.S. Citizenship is required.

A High School Diploma plus 15 years of directly related experience with proper certifications as described in the Functionally Aligned Job Descriptions, 5 of which must be in the DoD or a BA/BS plus 10 years of experience in the respective technical/professional discipline being performed, 3 of which must be in the DoD .

Active TS/SCI clearance.

Familiarity with MIL‑STD‑704/1275 power, MIL‑STD‑461 EMI/EMC, and aerospace wiring best practices (38999/26482, AS50881).

Experience reading/modifying schematics and using E‑CAD tools (Altium, OrCAD, or similar).

Comfortable with lab instrumentation and fault isolation techniques.

Desired Skills

• Experience in electrical subsystems for airborne platforms (manned and unmanned), ground stations, ISR pods
• Experience in design and evaluation of radio voice and data systems, tactical line of sight and SATCOM
• Experience in DoD information security devices (e.g data diodes, cryptographic equipment, and cross-domain solutions)
• Experience in product lifecycle process to include identifying/mitigating risks, bench and SIL testing, and product deployment and maintenance
• Previous Flight-line experience
• Setting up hardware for testing (discrete and analog signals, RS-232, USB, Ethernet, Fiber)
• Experience with using electrical measurement tools for troubleshooting and fault isolation, such as: multimeters, oscilloscopes, power meters, signal analyzers, and signal generators
• Troubleshooting and fault isolation skills (e.g. ohmmeters, network testers oscilloscopes, signal generators, RF analyzers)
