About Us
Harmattan AI is a next-generation defense prime building autonomous and scalable defense systems. Following the close of a $200M Series B, valuing the company at $1.4 billion, we are expanding our teams and capabilities to deliver mission-critical systems to allied forces.
Our work is guided by clear values: building technologies with real-world impact, pursuing excellence in everything we do, setting ambitious goals, and taking on the hardest technical challenges. We operate in a demanding environment where rigor, ownership, and execution are expected.
About the Role
As an Electrical Engineer, your main role will be to design and develop electronic boards and embedded systems (SoM) for UAVs (e.g., Flight Controllers, Companion Computers, Electronic Speed Controllers).
Responsibilities
-
High-performance embedded system design: Define the architecture and design the physical and electrical integration of complex systems based on processors, fast memory (DDR, Flash), and peripherals (e.g. embedded computers/calculators, sensors, video processing…).
-
Advanced schematic and routing design: Design and develop electronic schematics, and perform board placement/routing to meet design specifications, managing fast signal constraints.
-
Physical integration: Collaborate with the Mechanical Department to ensure the seamless physical integration of the boards into the final product.
-
Sensor integration: Work closely with the GNC (Guidance, Navigation, and Control) Department to ensure accurate and effective sensor integration.
-
Electromagnetic compatibility: Address and resolve EMC challenges while ensuring signal integrity.
-
Troubleshooting: Identify and resolve issues in electrical and electronic boards through effective troubleshooting.
-
Testing and Validation: Conduct testing, integration, and performance validation of electronic boards to meet operational and design requirements.
Candidate Requirements
-
Educational Background: Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
-
Technical Expertise:
-
Demonstrated experience of 5 years minimum in complex electronic system design.
-
In-depth knowledge of processors, memory domains (DDR, Flash), and electronic CAD tools (e.g., Altium).
-
Testing Proficiency: Proficiency in using electronic test equipment.
-
Additional Skills: Experience with Robotics or Aerospace systems is a strong advantage.
-
Problem-Solving: Ability to work autonomously and solve complex technical challenges.
-
Communication & Influence: Excellent written and verbal communication, capable of interacting with diverse principals—from junior members to senior executives.
-
Commitment: 100% dedication to Harmattan AI’s mission, vision, and ambitious growth plans, ready to go the extra mile to ensure operational excellence.
We look forward to hearing how you can help shape the future of autonomous defense systems at Harmattan AI.
