## Description

We are looking for a mid-to-senior Electrical Engineer to join our team in Costa Mesa, CA.

In this role, you will be responsible for end-to-end avionics hardware development supporting advanced hypersonic and high-speed vehicles. You will own critical electrical subsystems from architecture and schematic capture through board bring-up, Design Verification Testing (DVT), and vehicle-level integration.

This role requires a strong grounding in electrical engineering fundamentals, deep experience in power electronics, and a desire to work in a fast-paced hardware development environment where you make real flight hardware move quickly.

**Required Qualifications**

- Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering (or related discipline) with 4+ years of hands-on experience in board-level circuit design, analysis, and system integration.

- Strong EE Fundamentals: Demonstrated expertise in analog and digital circuit design, component selection, tolerance analysis, and root-cause troubleshooting.

- Power Electronics Experience: Proven experience designing power systems, DC-DC converters, switching power supplies, voltage regulators, and power management circuits.

- PCB Design Lifecycle: Direct experience designing multi-layer, mixed-signal PCBs (schematic capture, component placement, stackup design, impedance control, grounding, and design for EMC/EMI).

- Hands-on Lab & Test Skills: High competence using standard lab equipment (oscilloscopes, electronic loads, spectrum analyzers, logic analyzers) for hands-on board bring-up, debugging, and Design Verification Testing (DVT).

- System Interfaces & Bus Architectures: Familiarity with common interfaces (CAN, SPI, I2C, Ethernet, RS-422/485, UART).

- System Integration: Ability to take a design past the bench and support its integration into larger vehicle electromechanical assemblies and harness interconnects.

- Clearance: Must be a U.S. Person with an active U.S. DoD Secret clearance (or eligibility to rapidly reactivate a clearance held within the last 24 months).

**Preferred Qualifications**

- Active DoD Secret or Top Secret clearance.

- Experience designing electronics for space, missile, or hypersonic environments (accounting for extreme vibration, thermal vacuum, and radiation-tolerant/rad-hard considerations).

- Experience with ECAD design tools such as Altium Designer.

- Experience designing high-reliability hardware in fast-iterating environments (e.g., new-space, aerospace startups, or fast-paced defense programs).

- Understanding of battery management systems (BMS), high/low voltage power distribution, and actuator/motor drive electronics.

**Benefits** At Anduril, we invest in our people. Our comprehensive, competitive benefits package (available at little to no cost to employees) ensures you’re supported in health, recovery, and whatever comes next.
