Standard Job Description
You will be the Circuit Card Design Engineer for the Hardware Engineering team at Lockheed Martin Missiles and Fire Control (MFC). Our team designs, develops and fields precision engagement aerospace and defense systems, delivering high reliability circuit card assemblies (CCAs) that power missiles, sensors and other mission critical subsystems.
What You Will Be Doing
As the Circuit Card Design Engineer you will oversee technical execution, translate system requirements into subsystem designs, and create electrical interface and power distribution architectures. You will work closely with software, hardware and systems engineers, drive Integrated Master Schedule (IMS) tasking, manage procurement and testing, and guide the team through the Design Assurance process. Your responsibilities will include:
- Developing detailed schematics, 3 D models and bill of materials for circuit card assemblies (CCAs) that meet size, weight, power and environmental constraints.
- Performing signal integrity, power integrity and thermal analyses to validate designs and ensure reliable operation in harsh missile environments.
- Creating and maintaining electrical interface control documents, connector specifications and power distribution layouts.
- Conducting design review and verification activities (PDR, CDR, TRR) and generating test plans, procedures and validation reports.
- Managing procurement of components, coordinating with suppliers, and tracking part availability to keep the schedule on track.
- Supporting hardware in the loop (HIL) testing, troubleshooting board level issues and implementing corrective actions.
- Enforcing Design Assurance standards, configuration control and documentation in Lockheed Martin PLM tools (e.g., Windchill, DOORS).
- Collaborating with software, hardware, systems, test and manufacturing teams to resolve integration challenges and align on requirements.
- Mentoring junior engineers, promoting best practice design methods and fostering a collaborative team culture.
