RC1: United Tech Research Center 411 Silver Lane, East Hartford, CT, 06108 USA
Position Role Type:
Onsite
The Integrated Electric Systems team at RTX Technology Research Center invites individuals with high voltage, high power Electric Systems, power electronics and electromagnetics expertise with strong hardware prototyping skills to apply for an open position. We are seeking technicians who are focused on developing innovative technologies and solving tough problems for aerospace and defense applications. The successful candidate will collaborate within multidisciplinary teams in areas such as hybrid electric propulsion systems, Radio Frequency (RF) power systems, power distribution, controls, motors and drives.
Basic Qualifications:
Experience building electrical test setups and supporting testing:
Making electrical connections (low (<1A) to high (>100A) current, low (<50V) to high (>1kV) voltage)
Build simple mechanical structures using standard frames
Lab Maintenance:
Understands safety of electrical tests and relevant standards of workplace safety (e.g. NFPA70, OSHA standards)
Organization of lab space, ordering lab supplies
U. S. Citizen or Permanent Resident
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with using National Instruments hardware and Labview software - Knows how to write simple programs (e.g. read thermalcouple temperature using NI modules)
Experience with using electrical test equipment and instructions - Power supplies, multimeters, oscilloscopes, thermal cameras.
Experience with using soldering equipment (e.g. solder iron, hot air station, solder pot)
Ability to solder: from small components (e.g. surface-mount devices, complex IC packages) to large components (e.g. high-current connectors >100A)
Experience with reworking printed circuit boards, including replacement of surface-mount devices, complex IC packages
Experience with assembly of thermal management components, include air-cooled setups (e.g. heatsink and fan assemblies), liquid-cooled setup (e.g. cold plate, cooling lines and chiller connections), and thermal interface materials (e.g. handling of power semiconductors and thermal grease/pads)
Understanding of high power motor and drives
Operation of dyne-stand and safety
Torque meters, speed meters, instrumentation for performance evaluation
Familiarity with basic theory and principle of electrical and analog & digital electronic circuit/ Reading and interpreting electrical and electronic circuit blueprints, diagrams, and schematics
Experience with PCB design tools and CAD tools is a plus
Problem-solving skills: finding the cause and develop viable or creative solutions promptly
Good communicating and collaborating skills with team members and other domain experts
Demonstrated ability to interact with others respectfully and form productive working relationship.
Education:
Typically requires an AA/AS degree (or other 2-year post high school training) with a minimum of 6 years of relevant experience or a high school diploma with 8 years of experience.
