Amca is building critical components and subsystems for America's aviation and military platforms. The company operates seven factories nationwide and delivers avionics, hydraulic, and electrical components for aircraft like the F-35, F-16, F/A-18, 737MAX, 787, and A320neo, as well as military vehicles including the M1 Abrams.
As Electrical Engineering Manager, you will lead Amca's electrical engineering function across design, build, and test. Your team delivers flight-critical electrical hardware from concept through qualification and into production, spanning avionics, power electronics, fluid control systems, and adjacent electrical categories. This is a player-coach role where you will be hands-on with hard technical problems while building and scaling the team.
Key responsibilities include:
- Managing the electrical engineering team across design, build, and test disciplines
- Hiring, developing, and retaining electrical design and test engineers
- Setting technical standards, design review processes, and engineering best practices
- Mentoring engineers at all levels and fostering a culture of ownership, rigor, and speed
- Partnering with mechanical, software, and build engineering to deliver integrated systems
- Contributing to the electrical product roadmap with program management and leadership
- Translating customer requirements into executable engineering plans
- Supporting expansion of the electrical product catalog across avionics, power electronics, and fluid control
- Providing direct design oversight for flight-critical hardware including schematics, component selection, de-rating analyses, and PCBA layout
- Leading or supporting qualification programs including functional, environmental, and acceptance testing per DO-160, MIL-STD, and applicable standards
- Driving rapid hardware iteration from prototype through production release
- Ensuring all products meet aerospace configuration management and design control requirements
- Representing electrical engineering in customer-facing engagements and program reviews
You will need substantial experience in electrical engineering for aerospace or defense hardware, with a strong track record of taking products from concept through flight qualification and into production.
