About the Job

Requirements

  • A bachelor's degree in electrical engineering or a similar field and 7+ years of professional experience in PCB design.
  • Ability to read and interpret schematics and apply best practices appropriate for each design.
  • Expertise in applying relevant IPC standards and CID or CID+ certification.
  • Expertise in PCB fabrication processes, limitations, design rules, and best practices.
  • Experience using Altium Designer CAD tools; Allegro experience is a plus.
  • Experience developing component libraries and managing libraries.
  • Ability to communicate with multiple fabrication houses to ensure boards are built to print.
  • Ability to communicate with multiple assembly houses to ensure boards are built to the bill of materials.
  • Experience with a variety of board types, including high-density and high-layer-count digital designs with more than 16 layers, power electronics, flex circuits, and RF circuits.
  • Experience with high-density interconnect and boards thicker than 1.6 mm.
  • Experience with high-speed digital interfaces and controlled-impedance routing requirements, including USB, PCIe, Ethernet, SERDES, and DDR memory.
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with engineers to produce printed circuit board designs supporting Anduril products.
  • Apply modern design standards and guidelines to create high-reliability, highly manufacturable assemblies.
  • Implement combinations of high-speed digital, precision analog, radio frequency, and high-power designs.
  • Lead the team in establishing internal guidelines for design for manufacturing, design for assembly, and overall quality fabrication and assembly outputs.
  • Develop and refine team processes for PCB design, part creation, and library/database standards.
  • Coordinate external PCB design resources during design surges.
  • Manage multiple concurrent projects and customers in a fast-paced environment.

Desired Qualifications

  • Familiarity with radio-frequency board design.
  • Experience with high-pin-count packages, including FPGA fanout.
  • Familiarity with basic signal-integrity and power-integrity rules and their effects on layout.

About the Company

Anduril

Builds autonomous weapons for the US and allies

Anduril builds autonomous weapons, such as drones, cruise missiles, and robot submarines, for the US military and its allies, often developing them with its own money before any order arrives. In 2024 it beat Boeing, Lockheed Martin, and Northrop Grumman for an Air Force contract to develop Fury, a pilotless jet that flies alongside crewed fighters. Its Lattice software merges camera and radar feeds into one live map and lets a few operators direct many drones and weapons at once, including other companies' systems. Governments buy its systems under contract, and Anduril builds much of the hardware in its own factories. Oculus founder Palmer Luckey co-founded Anduril in 2017, and it is based in Costa Mesa, California.
