Senior Staff Electrical Engineer
Why This Role Stands Out
This Senior Staff Electrical Engineer role at Innovative Concepts, Inc. offers you the chance to be a technical authority on cutting-edge targeting and mission-system technologies, driving electrical architecture and leading board-level system design from concept to production. You'll thrive here if you enjoy hands-on technical leadership, mentoring other engineers, and shaping the future of mission-critical systems within a highly reputable organization, enjoying the flexibility of a hybrid work environment.

Job Summary
This is a senior technical leadership role within SlingWorks, one of Elbit America's most advanced engineering teams focused on next-generation targeting and mission-system technologies. As a Senior Staff Electrical Engineer, you will serve as a technical authority for complex electrical architectures and board-level system design while remaining hands-on throughout the full hardware lifecycle.
You will drive electrical architecture, lead development of advanced PCBAs, integrate processors, sensors, and high-speed interfaces, and own electrical performance from concept through bring-up, validation, and transition to production. You will guide cross-functional teams, mentor engineers, and help shape long-term electrical strategy for mission-critical systems.
What You'll Be Doing
Architect and lead the development of complex electrical and board-level designs, including schematic capture, part selection, interface definition, and system partitioning
Provide system-level leadership across electrical domains, including digital, analog, power, and mixed-signal subsystems
Lead integration of processors, sensors, high-speed digital interfaces, and supporting electronics into cohesive electrical architectures
Define FPGA electrical integration strategy at the interface and system level (no RTL development required)
Direct PCB layout activities to ensure signal integrity, EMC/EMI robustness, manufacturability, and compliance
Lead board bring-up, electrical debug, validation, and root-cause analysis in lab environments
Develop validation methodologies, electrical test plans, and debug frameworks used across programs
Drive resolution of electrical issues across prototype and production builds
Lead electrical design for size, weight, and power (SWaP)-constrained systems, including power distribution, power integrity, efficiency, and thermal considerations
Partner closely with mechanical, systems, and embedded software teams to ensure seamless system-level integration
Serve as a key contributor in architecture reviews, design reviews, and complex trade studies
Guide DFM/DFT strategy and support transition from prototype to production with manufacturing teams
Oversee and interpret electrical analysis, modeling, and simulation efforts to de-risk architectures
What You Bring
Bachelor's degree in Electrical or Electronic Engineering (Master's preferred)
15+ years of experience in electronic design, development, and system integration
Proven ability to lead complex design efforts and organize large-scale engineering activities
Expertise in Schematic Capture tools (such as Mentor Graphics Xpedition) and Electrical analysis/simulation software (such as LTSPICE)
Proficiency with PLM tools or similar ERP tools
Ability to work effectively in a fast-paced, high-reliability environment supporting mission-critical applications
Required training: ESD and safety training (can be completed within first year)
