Develop, program, and optimize SMT manufacturing processes (NPI and legacy) including SMT, SPI, AOI, reflow, selective soldering, conformal coating, and underfill. Create work instructions, track equipment and process metrics, support failure analysis and corrective actions, engage suppliers, implement equipment, and ensure production readiness and quality for high-reliability aerospace/defense electronics.

Lead technical design and delivery of mission‑critical embedded digital hardware from concept through production. Architect high‑speed, ruggedized systems (FPGAs, secure processors, DDR5, PCIe, 400G Ethernet), drive verification, mentor teams, and advise leadership on technical risk, cost, and schedule for defense/aerospace products.

Lead Employee Relations and serve as HR Business Partner for Legal and Signal Technologies. Conduct complex investigations, develop and implement compliant policies and HR processes, coach managers, support compensation, talent and performance programs, and present HR solutions to drive employee engagement and business results.

Lead architecture and end-to-end board‑level hardware design for ruggedized, high‑speed embedded systems (FPGA, secure processing, 400G+ Ethernet, PCIe Gen5+, DDR5). Define engineering standards, ensure DFM/DFA/DFT, collaborate across disciplines, support proposals, and mentor engineering teams to deliver reliable defense/aerospace products.

Lead growth and capture efforts with Lockheed Martin by developing engagement and capture strategies, managing integrated cross-functional teams, driving executive-level relationships, converting pipeline to orders, and reporting progress to senior leadership. Travel minimum 50% and maintain export control and security clearance compliance.

Provide technical leadership for RF/microwave product troubleshooting in manufacturing and development, support producibility and design updates, assist engineering projects, collaborate with program management, operations, supply chain, and quality to resolve assembly, test, and integration issues for defense/aerospace programs.

Lead detailed design of RF circuits, modules, and subsystems for defense/aerospace products. Provide technical leadership, resolve complex manufacturing/test issues, transfer designs to production, and mentor junior engineers while collaborating across teams.

Provide technical leadership for RF/microwave product troubleshooting in manufacturing and development, support producibility improvements, assist engineering projects, implement design updates, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to support aerospace/defense programs.

Lead development and execution of verification and validation tests for ruggedized servers and secure software in aerospace/defense. Design test procedures to military standards, perform functional/environmental/stress/security testing, integrate software/hardware validation, document test plans/reports, support test tooling and equipment, and coordinate across engineering, program management, and mission assurance teams.

Design, prototype, and test RF/microwave circuits and sub-assemblies. Produce engineering documentation, develop functional specifications, support production transfer, and guide automated product testing while collaborating with cross-functional teams.

Lead an embedded software engineering team through full lifecycle development: plan tasks, design architectures and tests, manage configuration and releases, support hardware bring-up, and collaborate with systems, test, and support teams to reproduce and resolve customer issues.

Lead and coordinate cross-functional engineering programs for RF/EW and complex hardware/software products. Develop and maintain schedules, track risks and resources, support integration, test, qualification and manufacturing transitions, and communicate status to stakeholders. Support proposal planning, technical reviews, and resolution of cross-discipline blockers to ensure on-time delivery of defense/aerospace systems.

Design and develop board-level digital circuits and embedded hardware from concept through production for aerospace and defense platforms. Implement high-speed interfaces, collaborate on PCB layout and DFM/DFT, troubleshoot digital/analog/power circuits, and support manufacturing and verification activities.

Lead business development for Mercury in High Growth Markets, driving pipeline, executive engagement, capture strategy, and cross-functional teams to win space and defense programs. Influence requirements, define price-to-win, manage KPIs, deliver quarterly leadership updates, and travel frequently to engage customers and industry partners.
