Amca is building airplanes for the 21st century, starting by designing new hardware that flies on today’s planes. Aviation was once humanity’s boldest ambition, but the industry hasn’t successfully built a new plane in 40 years. We don’t think it has to be this way.
Overview
You will take electrical products from concept to flight qualification. Your primary function will be to expand Amca's product catalog by designing new aerospace hardware and working closely with build and test engineers to bring your products to life. As a senior engineer at an early start p, you will also be responsible for setting up Amca's design processes for the future. Responsibilities
Own design and prototyping of new electrical hardware. Work with customers to understand end-use applications and challenge requirements as needed Take full ownership of electrical design for flight hardware, including electrical schematic creation, electrical analysis, component selection, de-rating, and PCBA layout Own the prototype and bring-up of early revision hardware and rapidly iterate to finalize designs, including bench testing and basic functional and development tests. Work with test engineering to define and execute qualification plans including functional and environmental testing Work closely with build engineers to ensure new designs are manufacturable at production facilities and DFM feedback is implemented Manage drawing revisions, BOM structure, and part configuration in accordance with aerospace standards and internal design controls Continue to iterate on Amca designs to ensure they are fully optimized for reliability and cost Be a leader in developing Amca's design processes Assist in standard PCBA layout and electrical simulation processes Assist in PLM development and configuration management for design documentation Help determine engineering needs in adjacent electrical domains (firmware, software, RF, power, etc) Support Amca with subsidiary diligence and company development Evaluate product catalogs and help determine where largest opportunities lie for catalog expansion Assist in the evaluation of subsidiary design, manufacturing, and test capabilities Mentor early career electrical engineers Assist with recruiting to build the Avionics department within Amca Qualifications
5+ years experience in electrical design in a professional environment Proficient in electrical design, applying first-principles thinking to power, filtering, logic, software/firmware, and/or production constraints. Proficient in electrical schematic layout, component selection, and simulation to meet customer requirements. Able to train others. Proficient with hands-on debugging using standard electrical lab equipment. Exceptionally curious and fast learner; able to contribute across diverse part categories and manufacturing processes Demonstrated ability to use engineering first principles to challenge and simplify requirements Hands-on and practical—comfortable building, testing, and troubleshooting in real-world environments Independent and creative; thrives with ownership and minimal oversight Proficient in electrical analysis/simulation Basic understanding of electrical requirements across domains (power, filtering, logic, software/firmware, RF, etc.) Plus: familiarity with DO-160, MIL-STD, or other qualification and certification frameworks This position requires use of information which is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). All applicants must be U.S. persons within the meaning of ITAR. ITAR defines a US person as: any individual who is granted U.S. citizenship; or any individual who is granted U.S. permanent residence ("Green Card" holder); or any individual who is granted status as a "protected person" under 8 U.S.C 1324b(a)(3).
