Your Edge

With a Bachelor’s degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering and 8+ years of experience designing mixed-signal hardware systems, you’re ready to take ownership of complex schematic design and drive innovation in rugged single board computing. You’ve built your career in the aerospace and defense space, developing high-speed circuits and embedded solutions that meet uncompromising standards for performance and reliability.

You bring proven expertise in schematic-level design, high-speed interfaces (PCIe, DDR4, GDDR6), and advanced video standards such as HDMI, DisplayPort, and SMPTE, not just at the user level but in creating the interfaces that make them work. Your designs align with MIL-STD-810, DO-160, IPC, and ITAR requirements, ensuring products can withstand the harshest environments. With hands-on experience in rugged computing form factors like VPX and XMC, and awareness of SOSA, CMOSS, or VICTORY, you know how to translate demanding specs into practical, high-performance hardware that powers mission-critical systems.

What You Bring to the Table

• Tool expertise: Proficiency with Cadence OrCAD, Allegro PCB Editor, and related schematic/layout tools, with the flexibility to adapt and learn new platforms
• Protocol knowledge: Strong understanding of serial communication standards including UART, SPI, I2C, and CAN Bus
• PCB awareness: Understanding of how schematic-level decisions impact PCB routing, manufacturability, and cost
• Standards knowledge: Familiarity with aerospace and defense requirements including MIL-STD-810, DO-160, IPC, DO-254, and DO-178
• Rugged computing familiarity: Background with VPX, XMC, and U.S. defense frameworks such as SOSA, CMOSS, or VICTORY
• Cross-functional mindset: Ability to collaborate seamlessly with PCB, firmware, mechanical, and production engineers to deliver integrated solutions
• Problem-solving approach: Analytical skills to evaluate trade-offs, avoid assumptions, and dig into specifications to ensure accuracy and compliance
• Communication skills: Clear and open communicator who values feedback, teamwork, and knowledge sharing across disciplines

In this role, you’ll directly shape the future of WOLF’s high-performance computing platforms, ensuring our hardware not only meets but exceeds the demands of aerospace and defense leaders worldwide.
