    Default job background
    Description

    Job Description

    This position is for a Circuit Design Engineer (analog and digital) who will work in the high voltage power supply group, reporting to the Electrical Engineering Manager. The ideal candidate will have a working knowledge of resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers, EMI filters, operational amplifiers, voltage references, microprocessors, DAC / ADC, optoelectronic devices; both commercial off-the-shelf and semi-custom / full-custom devices controlled by an ICD or Spec Control Drawing.

    Responsibilities include working with the design engineering team to seek, source, specify, test, and evaluate circuitry aspects applicable for both new product designs and for sustaining current production product. Emphasis is on design of circuit architectures for generation and regulation of high voltage (up to 10 KVDC) and low current (under 1 mADC) power as used in portable battery-operated systems where power efficiency, stability, reliability, and miniaturization are critical. Knowledge of electronic materials, including PC board laminates, materials used for insulation and encapsulation (conformal coating, silicones, and epoxies), and electronic hardware packaging techniques that can be used to optimize fit in dense, irregular form-factors are a major plus.

    The candidate's knowledge of analog and digital circuitry and constituent materials will guide the team and assist from initial product concept and circuit topology, to breadboard proof of concept, to prototypes, and release to production. Bill of Material support may include circuit parts lifecycle and obsolescence management, counterfeit parts management, lead-free control, creation of ICD / Spec Control Documents, and electronic hardware stress, de-rating, and reliability analysis. The individual will be the technical interface with suppliers of custom devices and materials used in the design and will maintain industry awareness to alert the engineering team of new products applicable to the design needs. Basic knowledge of power supply design, analog circuitry, embedded systems, control loop design, electronic hardware properties unique to high-voltage / low current design, circuit miniaturization, and high-voltage insulation are desired.

    This position requires strong communications skills (verbal and written), that are carried out in a timely manner, and that may include interaction with engineers at other ESA locations. The candidate may be required to prepare and maintain project schedules, and to supervise the activities of electronics technicians and interns. The individual will be expected to work in a hands-on manner and to provide mentoring of associates.
