Top Engineering Jobs in Austin, TX

Leads systems engineering, integration, and test activities for electronic warfare programs while managing a team of systems engineers. Responsibilities include requirements development and allocation, system design, integration and verification, test planning, technical performance measurement, cost and schedule management, trade studies, customer coordination, proposal support, and engineer mentoring. The role requires an active Secret clearance, extensive systems engineering experience, EVMS certification, and CAM experience.

Lead development of advanced laser and optical subsystems, including requirements, modeling, design, assembly, alignment, testing, and transition to production. The role requires collaboration across engineering and manufacturing disciplines, customer presentations, proposal and schedule support, technical leadership, and expertise in high-power laser technologies, optical components, and laboratory integration.

Leads the design, analysis, integration, testing, manufacturing transition, and production support of advanced opto-mechanical EO/IR military systems. Responsibilities include designing lasers, sensors, receivers, motion systems, and gimbals; performing thermal, structural, stress, and vibration analyses; developing documentation and test equipment; troubleshooting manufacturing and test issues; and leading multidisciplinary hardware engineering teams through the product lifecycle.

Design and test power electronics for military and commercial aircraft, conducting research, troubleshooting, and ensuring compliance with specifications.

Develops advanced ASICs from concept through deployment, focusing on physical design, synthesis, constraints, timing analysis, EMIR, and layout verification. The role requires scripting, revision-control, and Linux/Unix experience, with opportunities to lead design teams and work on advanced technology nodes, radiation-hardened designs, custom timing libraries, and post-silicon debug. The position is hybrid in Manassas, Virginia, supporting aerospace, defense, space, and electronic warfare applications.

Develop and verify FPGA designs for electronic warfare systems using SystemVerilog/UVM and/or VHDL testbenches. Create constrained-random test plans, analyze coverage metrics, develop reusable Verification IP, improve verification methodologies, and collaborate with engineers across multiple locations. The role requires executing tasks to schedule, supporting multiple projects, and working full-time onsite.

Design and develop complex battery, high-voltage, and high-power electronic packaging systems. Conduct thermal and structural analyses, resolve complex design challenges, and establish finalized designs. Collaborate with manufacturing, engineering teams, customers, and suppliers on materials, components, production, cost, schedules, and technical requirements. Support lightweight structures, thermal management, thermal runaway mitigation, and design-to-cost objectives while coordinating multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.

Develop and maintain embedded software and firmware for mission-critical flight and avionics systems. Collaborate with systems, hardware, and test engineers across requirements development, low-level design, implementation, hardware-in-the-loop integration, and system testing. Create safety-critical design and project artifacts, perform software validation and verification, troubleshoot hardware-software issues, and use embedded architectures, testing tools, and engineering processes.

Leads and manages a team of hardware engineers while serving as a technical contributor on defense and electronic warfare programs. Responsibilities include recruiting, mentoring, staffing, goal setting, hardware development process oversight, product design, design reviews, verification, integration, trade studies, proposals, and production support.

Leads and mentors a team of 4–10 software engineers while serving as a technical contributor across the full software development lifecycle. Responsibilities include performance management, recruiting, technical oversight, program execution, cost and schedule management, metrics tracking, and collaboration with functional managers and discipline leads. The role supports defense systems involving aircraft protection, radar warning, and electronic attack.
