Anduril Industries is a defense technology company transforming U.S. and allied military capabilities through advanced technology. The Air and Ground Deterrence (AGD) Division develops integrated robotic systems for multi-domain situational awareness and force protection across land, sea, and air. The Sentry Hardware team serves as the key system integrator for the Anduril Sentry Family of Systems, with the Electrical Engineering Team driving end-to-end development from electrical architecture and ruggedized hardware design through verification, integration, and test.
The Sentry Engineering team builds hardware products and systems leveraging artificial intelligence to provide highly accurate, persistent autonomous awareness across land, sea, and air. With AI-enabled edge processing, continuous 360 pan/tilt capability, and a variety of radars and sensors, Sentry autonomously identifies, detects, and tracks objects of interest to bring increased awareness to borders, military bases, oil and gas pipelines, airports, and other critical infrastructure.
As an Electrical Test Engineer, you will own rapidly developed, ruggedized electronics design and scale legacy design concepts to support full-rate production. You will partner with the Architecture and Product Management team to drive system requirements prior to owning full PCB and/or electrical system design. This requires identifying high-risk areas, creating and validating electronics designs for embedded compute and/or power systems, and testing for long-term reliability while considering manufacturability and testability in the design.
Key responsibilities include: taking ownership as the main point of contact for electrical testing activities; providing hands-on and in-field support of prototype and production-level products; collaborating with mechanical engineers to optimize selection, design, and integration of high-power components, modules, and distribution; trading off component and module selections against size, weight, power, and EMC requirements; and collaborating with the design team to achieve reliability goals at a system level in context of concepts of operation.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Minimum 3+ years of professional experience in electrical engineering or related field
- Self-starter with ability to design digital and analog electronics from concept and functional prototype to production-ready product
- Ability to troubleshoot existing hardware to find root cause of issues and implement improvements
- Develop clear documentation capturing design requirements, specifications, test coverage, and test reports
- Complete full-cycle PCB design including requirements collection, schematic design, component selection, layout completion, bring-up, test, debug, validation, characterization, and system integration
- Work closely with mechanical, software, firmware, and test engineers to deliver fully functional products
- Work in fast-paced environment supporting new developments, active deployments, and customer-operated hardware
- Concurrently manage involvement in multiple projects at various stages
- Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:
- Bachelor's Degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent
- 3+ years of experience testing and troubleshooting complex board designs and products
- Competence with test equipment such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, thermal chambers, current-probes, and test automation
- Familiarity with switch-mode power supply design and testing
- Familiarity with standard interfaces such as Ethernet, CAN, I2C, SPI, PCIe, USB
- Familiarity with common MCU, CPU, FPGA devices and technologies
- Knowledge of modern analog and digital electronics and electronic circuits
- Exceptional organization and communication skills (written and oral)
- Proficiency with Altium Designer or equivalent electronic design automation tools
- Proficiency with scripting languages (Python, Matlab, etc.)
- Ability to root cause full-stack HLOS application to hardware component-level issues
