The Skylark product line is focused on the rapid design, build, and test of cutting-edge active phased array antennas (AESA) for terrestrial and airborne applications. Current programs span high-power, large-scale ground terminals for missile defense to commercial airline and helicopter connectivity solutions.
We are looking to add an Electronics Engineer I to our team. If you enjoy working in a startup environment and are passionate about developing leading-edge electronics for aerospace systems, we would like to hear from you.
You will own significant portions of full-stack hardware development for complex electronics modules. This is an opportunity to start at board-level concept development and progress through detailed design, analysis, layout, build, test, and delivery, doing hands-on work at each phase. Senior and Principal Engineers will mentor and guide you, enabling you to make significant contributions to the company’s product line.
At a small company and a startup, your work will make direct contributions to the success of the business. The work is challenging and impactful, requiring both breadth and depth of technical knowledge. Our products are made for high-reliability space and airborne applications, so designs require high levels of technical rigor while maintaining the agility of a startup environment.
The successful candidate will also present engineering design review materials to our customers and executive team. As such, excellent written and verbal communication skills are required.
