What you'll do
Define the "How" of Hardware: Own domain-specific hardware architecture, component selection, physical design, and detailed mechanical, electrical, optical, and test engineering.
Transition and Scale Production: Lead the critical transition of our hardware from low-volume, hard-to-build prototype units to a high-rate EMD production environment.
Deliver Major Milestones: Lead hardware preparation, technical artifacts, and clear-to-build criteria for upcoming program milestones, including Hardware SRR, PDR, CDR, and Manufacturing Readiness Reviews (MRR).
Manage EMD & NPI Builds: Own the hardware side of New Product Introduction (NPI). Coordinate, inventory, and lead the assembly of final EDU and EMD-1 builds, ensuring they are ready for field testing and environmental Design Verification Testing (DVT).
Design & Ruggedize Test Equipment: Architect, build, and ruggedize manufacturing and optical test equipment to ensure highly efficient, repeatable, and automated testing on the production floor.
Define V+V Metrics: Define, implement, and track hardware Verification and Validation (V+V) metrics Lead HW to ensure absolute system reliability in extreme physical environments.
What they're looking for
- Staffing & Collaboration: Partner closely with the Chief Engineer. Work directly with functional engineering leads to ensure your product line has sufficient, high-performing hardware engineering staffing.
- Hardware Sustainment: Own the detailed hardware Continuous Improvement (CI) roadmap, oversee the hardware Configuration Control/Change Review Board (CRB), and drive rapid resolution of hardware field issues
- Education: Degree in a technical field such as mechanical engineering,: electrical engineering, optical engineering, systems engineering, physics, or a hard science.
- Experience: 8+ years of experience developing and deploying complex: electromechanical, electro-optical, or active sensing systems.
