    • Familiarity with board bring-up, test planning, and design verification workflows
    • Experience interacting with contract manufacturers, supporting DFM reviews, and resolving production issues
    • Strong documentation habits and organizational skills
    • Active security clearance preferred.

    Preferred Requirements
    • Experience designing for harsh environments (thermal, vacuum, vibration, etc.)
    • Familiarity with high-speed design or impedance-controlled layouts
    • Basic scripting or automation in Python or C for hardware test workflows
    • Exposure to radiation effects and mitigation in electronic design
    • Familiarity with EMI/EMC design practices and validation
