Who we are

Neros is a defense technology company rebuilding America's drone industrial base. We design and manufacture high-performance unmanned systems that are tested in combat, iterated at startup speed, and built at massive scale. Our team culture is fast, hands-on, and obsessed with closing the gap between design and deployment.

As drones transform the character of warfare, Neros is delivering the systems the West needs to compete on the modern battlefield and deter the adversaries of democracy. We're hiring engineers, operators, and builders who want to move fast, take on extreme ownership, and get capability into the hands of warfighters in months, not years.

What you will be doing

The Senior Electrical Engineer is a leader and a key technical owner at Neros, responsible for driving the development of critical electrical components from concept to production. You will leverage your expertise in both theory and application to lead the schematic capture and layout process, define testing procedures, and solve complex engineering challenges. You will assist at making key architectural decisions, manage project timelines, and ensure your designs meet the highest standards of performance and reliability while meeting project deadlines.

Responsibilities Lead the end-to-end design process

for electrical components, translating block diagrams into fully functional products. Serve as the ECAD expert, driving

schematic capture and PCB layout

in Altium. Define and oversee

verification, validation, and acceptance testing procedures

for development and production hardware. Drive root cause analysis efforts , identifying issues and implementing robust solutions for complex problems. Propose and validate

system architecture decisions

through simulation, calculation, and hands-on analysis. Develop and manage project timelines for the electrical development cycle. Collaborate with cross-functional engineering teams to ensure system-level compatibility and performance. Effectively delegate tasks and provide technical guidance to supporting Electrical Engineers.
