О компании

is seeking a Electrical Engineer to join the Maneuver Dominance team at our Costa Mesa HQ. The Maneuver Dominance (MD) Team at develops aerial robotic systems designed to operate in large coordinated teams in concert with ground maneuver forces. We leverage existing drone platforms like Ghost, Altius, or Roadrunner, in addition to bringing 3rd party platforms into ’s Lattice ecosystem. We develop perception and autonomy algorithms to solve some of the hardest problems facing our customers.
We need an Electrical Engineer to own the payload power, data, and control electrical architecture — from the aircraft bus through the deployment mechanisms to the mission payloads — on this novel autonomous platform. WHAT YOU'LL DO
Own the payload electrical architecture — design power delivery, data, and control wiring from the aircraft bus to payload interfaces through deployment mechanisms
Design firing circuits and payload control electronics — arming/safing logic, continuity test interfaces, and ground-to-aircraft handoff protocols for mission-critical payloads
Define and implement the mission/vehicle management system (SMS/VMS) electrical interface for payload control — command, status, and safety interlock signals
Design harness routing through articulated deployment mechanisms — connector mate/de-mate logic and continuity assurance across all mechanism positions
Design ground support equipment (GSE) — bench simulators, continuity test sets, and arming/safing control stations to support integration and range operations
Perform EMC analysis for firing-circuit-class signals in a hybrid-electric airframe environment — identify HERO/HERP/HERF risks and define mitigation
Support lab verification of the payload electrical chain — bench test through simulated bus to payload connector before aircraft integration
Support on-aircraft integration and ground firing verification at range-cleared facilities
REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
3–6 years in aerospace or defense electrical engineering with payload or weapons electrical systems experience
Firing circuit design — EED circuits, arming/safing logic, and safety analysis
Payload bus architecture — power, data, and control from aircraft bus to payload
Aerospace harness design, including wiring through dynamic or articulated environments
GSE design for payload integration support
EMC analysis for safety-critical circuits (HERO/HERP/HERF awareness)
Eligible to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
MIL-STD-1760 implementation experience
HERO/HERP/HERF electromagnetic hazard analysis
Payload electrical integration on rotorcraft or VTOL platforms
Hybrid-electric or high-voltage airframe EMC context
Range operations support experience
