At Raytheon, the foundation of everything we do is rooted in our values and a higher calling - to help our nation and allies defend freedoms and deter aggression. We bring the strength of more than 100 years of experience and renowned engineering expertise to meet the needs of today's mission and stay ahead of tomorrow's threat. Our team solves tough, meaningful problems that create a safer, more secure world.

Raytheons Effector Analog & Power (EAP) Team is looking for junior engineers to help design Telemetry (TM) and Flight Termination Systems (FTS).

The EAP Department is responsible for the development, from concept to integration, of Telemetry and Flight Termination products; power systems from all up round to the lowest level power regulation; servo electronics supporting all mechanical motion in our products and low noise mixed signal electronics that provides the analog to digital interface to our front-end sensors. Each of these products generally operate in lower power and voltage ranges less than 10kW and 1000V.

The Telemetry and Flight Termination Systems team develops system designs focused on supporting effector flight tests. We adhere to rigorous standards from the Range Commanders Council, Federal Communications Commission, and the National Security Agency in the design and utilization of our products. We perform make/buy trade studies, design application specific Printed Circuit Board Assemblies, and work with leading industry suppliers of antennas, transmitters, encoders, and flight termination components.

What You Will Do

Design, analyze, simulate, test, and document analog and mixed signal electronics circuitry.

Assist in designing electronics at the subsystem or PCB level.

Help to see PCB development through its design phases, from requirements definition through initial integration testing.

Be the "Responsible Engineering Authority" (REA) for FTS and/or TM designs.

Generate and/or compile all required analysis and documentation verifying compliance with program and performance requirements.

Qualifications You Must Have

Requires a bachelor's degree in Science, Technology, Engineering, or Mathematics (STEM) and less than 2 years of prior relevant experience

Experience with Electronics design with emphasis on systems and/or subsystems.

Experience utilizing and creating electrical design specifications.

Experience with analog electronics design, including most of the following: FETs/BJTs, op-amp, high/low/band pass filters, clock/data termination, comparator circuits, A/D converters, level shifters, and load switches.

Experience using tools such as MATLAB, MathCAD, Mathematica, or other similar tools.

Qualifications We Prefer

An advanced degree in Electrical Engineering

A self-starter, a quick learner, be able to function in a dynamic environment, and have good time management skills.

Experience communicating and documenting technical topics at the small team level.

Experience with Flight Termination and/or Telemetry systems design.

Experience with electronics laboratory testing and troubleshooting.

Professional experience with the ECAD process and have a conceptual understanding of the layout and routing concerns specific to RF circuit cards.

Experience in any one of the following: Designing using microcontrollers, FPGA's, and digital interfaces System grounding schemes and resolving ground reference issues Developing requirements and test plans Electrical interface control documents Power supply design Detailed printed circuit board layout
