RESUME AND JOB
Northrop Grumman
Conduct analysis, design, and testing of electrical systems to meet defined objectives and ensure subsystem- and system-level designs meet performance requirements. Develop and produce detailed harness and installation drawings in accordance with best industry CAD practices. Design electrical harnesses and wiring for applications such as power distribution, RF signals, communications, and high-speed data transmission while applying EMI/RFI shielding and mitigation techniques. Select appropriate components, including connectors, backshells, cables, wires, and harness hardware in accordance with standards (e.g., IPC/WHMA-A-620A, NASA-STD-8739.4). Collaborate with engineering teams, manufacturing teams, and operations groups to ensure seamless design processes, successful integration, and testing of electrical harnesses and cables. Support assembly and testing activities, with a focus on detailed quality and performance standards. Manage the drawing release cycle, review BOMs for accuracy against engineering drawings, and perform reviews of electrical drawings for formatting errors and consistency. Review internal, external, and range requirements to support launch vehicle designs. Actively prioritize safety through every aspect of the role. Principal Electrical Engineer (Level 3):
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related technical discipline with 5 years of engineering experience, or a Master's degree in Electrical Engineering with 0 years of related experience. Strong written and verbal communication skills. Experience with Teamcenter or equivalent PLM software. Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) Secret Ability to occasionally lift up to 30 lbs. Active Secret or higher security clearance. Knowledge of cable manufacturing processes, including connectors, crimping, soldering, forming, and testing. Experience designing and integrating wire harnesses in the aerospace industry. Familiarity with existing harness standards:
IPC/WHMA-A-620A (Cable & Wire Harness Assemblies), NASA-STD-8739.4. Experience releasing engineering documentation such as technical drawings, specifications, and test procedures. Experience designing and testing electrical harnesses for spacecraft, launch vehicles, or aircraft. Prior experience solving technical, schedule, or resource-related project challenges. Ability to work in small teams, covering all aspects of system design—from concept through testing. Expertise in electrical design for power distribution, RF signals, and high-speed data systems. Working knowledge of EMI/RFI shielding and harness design principles. Familiarity with generating and interpreting electrical schematics, wiring diagrams, drawings, and BOMs. Hands-on experience with cable and harness assembly and testing. Experience with spacecraft harness/wire or cable designs and familiarity with space program specifications and flight hardware. Proficiency with Electronic CAD tools such as Capital Logic, AutoCAD Electrical, or equivalent.
125,000 - 185,000 USD / yearly
