Principal Electrical Design Engineer

Join Array, a leading company in the aerospace industry, as a Principal Electrical Design Engineer. In this role, you will design and validate digital and mixed-signal electronics for radar payloads and satellite platforms. You will work closely with various engineering teams and take hardware through design, prototyping, bring-up, and qualification. Your work will directly impact system performance, power efficiency, stability, and overall reliability in orbit.

• Design and validate digital and mixed-signal electronics for radar payloads and satellite platforms.
• Lead prototyping, hardware bring-up, debug, manufacturing, and test campaigns for electronic designs.
• Provide technical leadership through design reviews, risk reduction planning, and mentorship of early-career engineers.

• Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
• B.S. in Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 15+ years of relevant experience
• Experience in electronics design, bring-up, and test
• Excellent teamwork and communication skills
• High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability
• Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
• Master’s degree in electrical engineering, or a related field
• Hands-on experience with full-life cycle hardware development (concept to production) in consumer electronics, power electronics, communications, automotive, aerospace, and/or robotics
• Background in high-speed board design, simulation, and validation techniques including PCB stack-up, fabrication considerations, layout constraints, component selection, and measurement
• Background in electromagnetic theory and RF fundamentals such as S-parameters, transmission lines, and broadband impedance matching
• Hands-on experience designing high-performance platforms including compute (SoCs, FPGAs, MCUs), storage (DDR, SSDs), high-speed interfaces (PCIe, SPI, JESD204B), RF components (PAs, LNAs, switches)
• Proficiency with schematic capture and design using CAD tools such as Altium Designer (preferred); experience with Allegro and/or OrCAD is a plus
• Experience with EMC requirements and EMI mitigation techniques
• Experience with signal and power integrity simulation and measurement
• Experience with analysis and simulation tools such as LTspice, ADS, and/or Microwave Office
• Experience with EM and thermal simulation of printed circuit boards
• Experience with data analysis and programming in MATLAB or Python
• Hands-on experience with test equipment such as oscilloscopes and network analyzers
