Organization Description:

Within the Electrical Products team, you will be a part of providing a key role within the Raytheon Missiles and Defense Engineering organization by providing the electronics for the weapon system products. We engage at the outset of the weapon system development and follow our designs through deployment. Our team helps mold the requirements and bring concepts to life. Our products are deployed all over the world, reach the exoatmospheric environments and into space. The Configurable Digital Logic (CDL) Products Department is responsible for the architecture, design and documentation of deliverable firmware and FPGA embedded processing at RTX. At RMD, we offer competitive salaries and benefits, including profit sharing and a comprehensive relocation package. Learn more about our requirements and apply today!

Job Description:

The Electrical Engineer will develop FPGA designs in VHDL for all major vendors and device families including: Xilinx, Microsemi (Actel), Intel (Altera) and Lattice designs are implemented using VHDL for the following applications: Radiation-Hard and Radiation-Tolerant, Radio Frequency (RF) and Electro-Optical (EO) DSP, controls, data links, and embedded processing. Designers work with circuit card designers and systems engineers to develop requirements, architect new parts, partition and perform code development, simulation, place and route. Designs are verified against requirements using both directed test and constrained random methodologies. Design support is expected from requirements definition through integration and test. Design documentation and configuration management are required.

U.S. Citizenship status is required as this position will need a U.S. DoD Security Clearance within 1 year of start date.

Please note this position can be a Sr. Electrical Engineer II or Principal Electrical Engineer I depending on the candidates skills and experience.
