As a Journeyman Electrical Engineer , you'll join the crossfunctional team turning Phalanx Griffon (PG) from digital design into flightready hardware for Major Release 2 (FY 2527) . You'll focus on power distribution, wiring harnesses, interfacecontrol documentation, and EMI / EMC compliance for the Nomad openarchitecture chassis-supporting lab builds, environmental tests, and aircraft installation.

Essential Job Functions :

• Hardware Integration & Schematics
• Develop and update wiring diagrams, pinouts, and cable assemblies for Nomad processing cards, crypto devices, and SATCOM interfaces.
• Calculate load analyses and circuit protection to meet platform SWaPC and MILSTD704 / 1275 powerquality requirements.
• Lab & Bench Support
• Assemble and troubleshoot PG linereplaceable units in the Integration SIL ; perform continuity checks, poweron verification, and firmware updates.
• Instrument test setups (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power analyzers) and document results for designtotest traceability.
• Environmental & EMI / EMC Preparation
• Assist senior engineers in vibration, thermal, and EMI / EMC prequalification tests (MILSTD810 / 461); capture redlines and support corrective actions.
• Documentation & Configuration Control
• Maintain interfacecontrol documents (ICDs), bills of material (BOM), and partnumber trees inside the government digitalengineering environment (CAMEO / SysML, Windchill).
• Generate test procedures, validation reports, and engineeringchange packages for flighttest readiness.
• CrossTeam Collaboration
• Work alongside Systems, Software, and Test IPTs to resolve integration issues quickly and feed lessons learned into subsequent Product Delivery Orders (PDOs).
