Elect Design and Analy Engr 3/4

A mid level Electrical Engineer to develop mixed signal circuit card modules for radar seeker products. The candidate will work closely with other engineers and project personnel in a multidiscipline team environment. The individual will be involved in high speed, digital, embedded processing and analog designs. Primary responsibilities will include product design and verification, component selection, prototype construction and testing and analog and digital circuit simulation including signal integrity analysis. The candidate will be responsible for system level analysis related to electrical design including system level electrical architecture, power, and Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI) design.

Competencies

General


Collaboration
Works effectively and cooperatively with fellow employees, peers from other teams and/or parts of the organization and occasionally external customers; establishes and maintains good working relationships by actively involving others and helping them feel valued, appreciated, and included in discussions. Places higher priority on team and/or organization goals than on own goals. Offers to provide help and/or leadership to other teams and/or employees and occasionally external customers when they need assistance.

Communication
Clarifies purpose and importance; stresses major points; follows a logical sequence. Keeps the audience engaged through use of techniques such as analogies, illustrations, humor, an appealing style, body language, and voice inflection. Frames the message in line with audience experience, background, and expectations; uses terms, examples, and analogies that are meaningful to the audience. Seeks input from audience; checks understanding; presents message in different ways to enhance understanding. Uses syntax, pace, volume, diction, and mechanics appropriate to the media being used. Accurately interprets messages from others and responds appropriately. Technical
