• Design schematics and PCB layouts in Altium (or similar tools) for analog, digital, and power electronics
• Develop embedded firmware including control logic, user interfaces, algorithms, and communication protocols
• Build and tune embedded control systems, including motor control applications
• Bring designs to life by building, testing, troubleshooting, and refining prototypes and production units on your own bench
• Validate designs through simulation, lab testing, and real-world field testing
• Select components and materials with attention to performance, environmental durability, and chemical compatibility for marine environments
• Design for manufacturability, reliability, and cost from day one
• Create and maintain design documentation, specs, and production records; author engineering change orders (ECOs)
• Support certification and regulatory compliance activities
• Collaborate across electrical, mechanical, manufacturing, and project engineering in a small-team environment

What you bring

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field
