Description

Principal Hardware Engineer

We are a company of innovators, game changers, and entrepreneurs. As a prime contractor, we provide a broad range of communication, electronic and sensor systems used on military and commercial platforms across the globe. We embrace innovative and progressive ideas to advance our products for military and commercial customers. The Electronic Systems Segment (ESS) provides a broad range of aerospace systems, security and detection systems, and pilot training.

The L3 Interstate Electronics Corporation Division was founded in 1956 and for over 60 years IEC has played a key role in the most successful defense system of modern history. Headquartered in Anaheim, CA, IEC is a recognized industry leader in defense and security solutions, providing critical technology advancements in the areas of GPS/ Position Navigation and Timing, and Range and Test Solutions.

Job Summary:

Under very limited supervision with considerable latitude in assignment, perform engineering work such as interpreting system requirements, deriving GPS receiver end architecture (RF) from the requirements, simulating and validating the architecture, translating the architecture into schematic and board layout, analyzing the signal integrity of the board layout, directing the debug & test of the design, analyze the test results and develop hardware documentation. To accomplish an assignment it is expected that the candidate should be able to investigate literature, patents and current practices relevant to a solution, define theoretical bases and principles, and apply these to the solution. The position requires one to plan and direct major phases of projects and to coordinate the efforts of engineers and support staff. Job requires the ownership of the GPS RF front-end design from requirements identification through to integration, design validation test, early production, and production test. A knowledge of the hardware design process from hardware requirements specifications, trade studies, prototype development, PDR, verification testing, CDR, TRR, acceptance testing, PRR and full rate production is a requirement.

Values are an integral part of who we are. We seek candidates who share our values:

• Integrity

• Excellence

• Accountability

• Respect
