  • Firmware Development: Use integrated development environments to capture related firmware as part of the design and to aid in hardware test procedure development.
  • Testing and Qualification: Test and qualify the hardware/firmware design by applying advanced hardware-in-the-loop test methods to support integration with larger systems of systems.
  • System Integration: Support test cell and field testing of prototype systems to demonstrate final design.
Requirements
  • Education: Bachelor's Degree in an Engineering or Science discipline, Master's Degree preferred.
  • Experience: 5+ years related experience for a Level 3, additional experience and/or education and competencies required for higher level jobs.
Preferred Skills
  • Design Experience: Design experience in analog, digital, power, and battery systems.
  • CAD Tools: Knowledge and use of CAD tools for schematic capture, layout, and generating procurement documentation.
  • Embedded Systems: Expertise in both low-voltage and high-voltage systems as well as battery systems involving Lithium-based battery technologies.
  • Leadership: Demonstrated ability to work within or lead a technical team.
  • Hands-on Experience: Be hands-on, exhibit a solid understanding of electronics concepts, and possess a proven ability to build, troubleshoot, and integrate hardware/firmware with larger, more complex systems.
Working Environment

This position will be fully on-site, located in State College, PA. Periodic travel to remote locations may be required in support of testing as part of a small team of researchers, engineers, and technologists.

We are an integral part of one of the leading research universities in the nation and serve as a University center of excellence in defense science, systems, and technologies with a focus in naval missions and related areas.

You will be subject to a government security investigation, and you must be a U.S. citizen to apply. Employment with the ARL will require successful completion of a pre-employment drug screen.

We are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion; we believe this is central to our success as a Department of Defense designated University Affiliated Research Center (UARC). We are at our best when we draw on the talents of all parts of society, and our greatest accomplishments are achieved when diverse perspectives are part of our workforce.
