Position Summary We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer
specializing in analog and mixed signal designs to join our
Emerging Technology team. This individual will be a key contributor
in the electrical design, integration, test, and qualification of
custom circuits and control system subsystems for operation of
deployed quantum systems and sensors in space, terrestrial, and
lab-based environments. Initially, this role will be in support of
a technology demonstration mission in collaboration with NASA
JPL/Goddard that will demonstrate a first-of-its-kind quantum
gravity gradient (QGG) sensor on a dedicated satellite. The
successful candidate will collaborate with an extended team of
electrical engineers, physicists, mechanical engineers, embedded
systems engineers, systems engineers, and sub vendors to develop
high performance, low noise, radiation tolerant and robust circuits
critical to the operation of this exciting new quantum sensing
capability demonstrator. Key Responsibilities Manage engineering
projects and deliver them on time Develop analog circuits,
including design, schematic capture, PCB layout, prototyping build,
test, validation, and troubleshooting Design, model, and simulate
analog circuits and validate circuit performance through bench
testing Preferred focus on low noise and low drift circuit design
Design control loops in the analog and digital domains Collaborate
with engineers, physicists, and technicians to troubleshoot, debug,
and rework existing circuit boards in use Perform quality and
performance analysis on new and legacy electrical systems Work with
