• Senior Engineer (~5 years experience or a PhD or a when hired)
  • Responsibilities and required knowledge as listed in Engineer plus
  • Proficient in engineering role with a high degree of independence and little additional oversight or guidance
  • Manages and owns their own responsibilities (such as building up on a test bench and the test program for an ME) with little assistance
  • Capable of receiving high level problem statements and running it to ground
  • Capable of acting as the primary technical point of contact for internal stakeholders
  • Possesses a working knowledge and understanding of the previously listed aerospace and space disciplines

Expected Hours of Work

Salaried employees are generally expected to work a baseline of 40 hours per week, although a priority is placed on achieving results rather than tracking time.

Supervisory Responsibility

The Aerospace Electrical Engineer has no direct supervisory responsibility.

Physical Requirements

This role requires prolonged periods sitting at a desk and working on a computer. This role requires the ability to lift up to 25 pounds, open cabinets, bend, or stand on a stool as needed. Must be able to access and navigate all areas of the industrial facility.
