The Hardware Engineering Directorate is seeking an Electrical Engineer II to join our Effector Guidance Electronics Department. This team designs digital electronic circuit cards and electronic units that support systems from proposal through transition to production. Our technology base includes high-speed digital electronics, configurable logic, and homogeneous/heterogeneous multiprocessor designs used in missile guidance, video, and digital signal processing.

About the Role

You will design, analyze, simulate, test, and integrate digital electronic modules and circuit card assemblies (CCAs) for missile applications. Your work will ensure systems withstand environments ranging from the frigid, sub-zero vacuum of space to the blistering heat of the desert floor and the high pressures of the ocean depths.

This role requires collaboration with engineers to generate and utilize cutting-edge technology. You will work on hardware designs involving processors, FPGAs, memory, and industry interfaces such as PCIe, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, and UART. The position is onsite in Huntsville, Alabama, and is eligible for relocation assistance.
