• Ownership & Autonomy : You’ll lead full-cycle design projects — from concept to manufacturing — shaping electro-mechanical assemblies, custom harnesses, and PCB layouts.
• Innovation at Your Fingertips : Work with cutting-edge tools like Autodesk Inventor and Altium while contributing to high-impact projects that influence real-world applications.
• Collaborative Engineering : Partner with cross-functional teams — from sales to production — and see your work come to life on the factory floor.
• Make a Difference : Your designs will be part of systems used in mission-critical testing environments across aerospace, defense, and biomedical fields.

What You’ll Do:

• Design and develop custom electronic cables, harnesses, PCBs, and assemblies.
• Apply Design for Manufacturability (DFM) principles and cost-effectiveness evaluations to ensure top-tier product outcomes.
• Support internal teams (production, test, purchasing, sales) to align engineering efforts with customer needs and operational goals.
• Use 3D parametric modeling and PCB layout tools to produce design files, BOMs, and detailed documentation.
• Define technical specifications and ensure compliance with IPC-610, IPC-620, and other industry standards.
• Conduct testing, validation, and continuous improvement on designs.
• Review drawings and technical documents to ensure accuracy and manufacturability.
• Drive efficiency by resolving design challenges and supporting production optimization.

What You Bring:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (or equivalent experience).
• 5+ years in an engineering role — ideally in cable/harness design or PCB layout/manufacturing.
• Experience with Altium, Autodesk Inventor, and ATE systems (PXI preferred).
• Familiarity with ISO/ANSI/IPC standards and documentation.
• Strong analytical, communication, and project management skills.

Tools You’ll Use:

• 3D CAD (Autodesk Inventor)
• PCB Design Software (Altium Designer)
• Multimeters, oscilloscopes, calipers, network analyzers
• ERP/MRP systems (for BOM and documentation updates)
