Description:

The candidate is responsible for design, development, optimization, and sustainment of avionic products.

Some products contain radio frequency technology allowing for air-to air communication and ground-toair communication. Products can vary from vintage to new, analog to digital to hybrid circuits, and

electronic systems found in many US military platforms. This position requires a sound ability to analyze

circuitry, devise test procedures, capture and analyze quantitative data with the goal of rendering

solutions that drive improvements in product reliability, performance, and cost. The Engineer must be

able demonstrate a good balance of theoretical and practical approaches. Individual must be familiar with

using test measurement equipment to troubleshoot and provide technical support to shop personnel and

customers. Ability to collaborate with other engineers and electronic repair technicians is highly desirable.

Core Responsibilities include (but not limited to):

• Demonstrated ability to problem solving using a data-driven approach to electronics, such as DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) methodologies.

• Provide technical support to shop personnel and customers.

• Define alternate solutions for obsolete and diminishing materials.

• Evaluate new technology and opportunities for new business.

• Reverse engineer product to determine design intent while providing a forward moving initiative to regenerate the new product in a timely fashion.
