Design and deliver secure compute hardware for post-quantum cryptography and orbital/terrestrial systems. Own power, thermal, enclosure, and bus architecture design; collaborate with software, security, and systems teams; support FPGA integration, manufacturability, reliability, and environment-specific constraints (radiation, vibration, thermal-vacuum). Deliver iterative hardware releases on aggressive timelines.

The Senior Electrical Engineer will design, test, and debug navigation sensors while leading regulatory activities and qualification testing for space systems. This role demands extensive experience in complex circuit design and familiarity with PCB design and test equipment.

Designs and executes hardware test strategies for wireless power products. Develops test specs, fixtures, and software; performs component-level troubleshooting; validates product and fixture qualification; documents results and reports issues to stakeholders.

Lead standardization strategy for optical transport and Ethernet technologies, develop and advocate contributions to standards bodies (ITU‑T, IEEE, OIF, OpenROADM), coordinate with PLMs and R&D, report progress internally, provide technical influence and guidance, and represent Nokia at standards meetings and industry events.

Debug and resolve complex hardware/software issues for manufacturing test stations. Lead commissioning and release-to-manufacturing of opto-electrical test stations, improve test uptime, provide documentation and support to contract manufacturers and vendors, coordinate equipment RFQs/RMAs, and use AI tools for data analysis.

Design mechanical parts and assemblies for integration of C2 systems, perform 3D CAD modeling and 2D drafting, conduct structural/thermal/weight analyses, support prototyping and testing, interface with suppliers/customers, lead and mentor engineering teams, and prepare design documentation and briefings for DoD projects.

Designs, develops, tests, and oversees manufacture of PCBs, analog/digital circuits, sensors, motors, and radar/navigation hardware. Architects circuits, performs simulations and layouts, builds and debugs prototypes, prepares manufacturing documentation, mentors junior engineers, and supports testing, deployment, sustainment, and proposals.

The Electrical Hardware Design Engineer will design, develop, and test complex electronic systems, collaborating across engineering disciplines to create solutions for defense and aerospace applications.

Lead hardware integration for shipboard electromechanical assemblies during TMRR, manage requirements, MBSE/Cameo review, verification/validation, integration planning, lab testing, troubleshooting, cross-functional coordination, technical reviews, trade studies, and mentor early-career engineers.

Pipeline hiring for hardware engineers at all experience levels. Work includes circuit board design, schematic capture, component selection and prototype bring-up, hardware debug/testing and failure analysis, integration with firmware/software teams, and design for manufacturability with production handoff.

Design, test, and validate next-generation server hardware and components for performance, power, and reliability. Diagnose and resolve hardware issues across engineering and manufacturing, document results, and develop/maintain test scripts. Collaborate with internal teams and OEM/ODM partners to scale platforms for global deployment.

The Software Test Engineer will develop embedded and application software, collaborate with teams, ensure product specifications, and present project updates.

Lead design, architecture, integration, test, and deployment of HWIL systems for GNC, avionics, and missile subsystems. Own requirements, ICDs, wiring, V&V, and TDP configuration control. Manage a small multidisciplinary HWIL team, support TRR/ATP/QTP events, develop BOEs and IMS plans, and coordinate customer/partner deployments and capture support.

The role involves optimizing hardware support within a software stack for AI model deployment, collaborating with teams and hardware vendors to enhance performance and portability across platforms.

The role involves supporting the design and manufacture of space flight hardware, developing knowledge of electronic hardware workmanship standards, and conducting gap analyses. Responsibilities include improving manufacturing processes, evaluating supplier documentation, and supporting audits, with possible travel two or three times a year.

Design, build, and operate reliable backend systems while mentoring engineers, participating in design discussions, and improving system performance.

As a System Engineer, you'll design, deploy, and maintain cloud systems for AI workloads, troubleshoot complex issues, and collaborate with teams to optimize performance.
