Job Description

Staff Electrical Engineer leading mixed-signal PCB and control electronics for D2’s plasma-enhanced antenna systems. Advancing Red Cell Partners’ defense, aerospace, and communications technology from prototype to qualification.

Responsibilities:

  • Architect the mixed-signal backbone, including digital control, embedded interfaces, sensing, data conversion, and power, for plasma-enabled communications systems.
  • Lead design reviews, mentor engineers, and establish scalable digital/RF boundaries across bands, operating modes, and product variants.
  • Design microcontroller- and FPGA-based control, data converters, precision sensing, and plasma drive and bias circuitry.
  • Own board designs from schematic capture through PCB layout, including signal integrity, power integrity, thermal margin, and testability.
  • Bring up and debug prototypes using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and automated data capture.
  • Plan and execute integration and test campaigns, correlating circuit models and bench data with plasma, thermal, and RF performance.
  • Help define fabrication, assembly, prototype sequencing, design verification, and configuration control.
  • Collaborate with mechanical, software, systems, PCB, component, and test partners on EMC and defense qualification toward repeatable production.

Requirements:

  • Degree in Electrical Engineering or a closely related field, or an equivalent combination of education, training, and directly relevant experience, with typically 6–10+ years of relevant engineering work that demonstrates technical ownership of complex, cross-disciplinary mixed-signal systems, from architecture and interface trade-offs through schematic capture, layout, bring-up, integration, and verification.
  • Demonstrated expertise designing, laying out, building, and debugging printed circuit boards, with proficiency in a professional schematic and PCB environment such as Altium Designer, KiCad, or OrCAD.
  • Strong fundamentals in mixed-signal and digital design, including microcontroller or FPGA interfaces, data converters, serial buses, power electronics, controls, instrumentation, signal integrity, and power integrity.
  • Hands-on proficiency with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, signal generators, power supplies, electronic loads, probes, and safe laboratory practices.
  • Demonstrated ability to lead design reviews, mentor engineers, communicate technical risk, and make sound decisions with incomplete information.
  • Ability to meet requirements associated with work on U.S. government and national-security programs.

Benefits:

  • Career track opportunity with potential for rapid advancement with strong performance as the firm grows
  • 100% employer paid, comprehensive health care including medical, dental, and vision for you and your family.
  • Paid maternity and paternity for 14 weeks at employees' normal pay.
  • Unlimited PTO, with management approval.
  • Opportunities for professional development and continued learning.
  • Optional 401K, FSA, and equity incentives available.
  • Mental health benefits are available through Tara Mind.
  • Cost effective GLP-1 solutions available through Crux.
