The opportunity
Anduril is seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer based in Costa Mesa, CA to develop and test cutting edge electronics for avionics propulsion systems. We are looking for a self-starter with deep technical experience in defense or aerospace hardware development to apply…
What you'll do
Full Cycle PCB Design: Translate system-level propulsion requirements into robust designs. Perform schematic capture and high-density PCB layouts (with a strong preference for Altium), component selection, bring-up, test, debug, and integration with the propulsion system.
Engine System Electronics: Design and optimize flight controller circuits, power distribution/supplies, motor controller circuits, and electromagnetic actuator circuits.
Rigorous Analysis: Conduct circuit simulations, worst-case analysis (WCA), thermal analysis, DFMEA, and component derating to ensure reliability under extreme vibration and temperature environments.
Comprehensive Testing: Lead board bring-ups, Design Verification Testing (DVT), qualification (Qual) testing, and functional testing.
Collaborative Design: Provide electrical support and collaborate closely with mechanical, thermal, software, test, quality, manufacturing, and systems engineering teams for development.
Peer Reviews: Conduct peer-level and cross-discipline design reviews.
What they're looking for
- Education: Master’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (MSEE).
- Advanced Tools: Experience with MATLAB / Simulink for data analysis, control loop modeling, or system simulations.
