**Electrical Engineer Payload Launch Control- Comm Systems** - General Dynamics Electric Boat

The Virginia Tactical Electronics Systems group within Department 440 is responsible for developing electronic hardware for the control of tactical weapons, payloads, and their associated handling and launching systems. The group's work involves in-house development of embedded control systems; including requirements and specification development, circuit design and analysis, COTS evaluation and selection, prototyping and Engineering Development Model fabrication and test. The group provides construction support as required for fabrication and test. Some of the group's work involves subcontractor management, which consists of specification development, and oversight of vendor efforts. Work performed typically involves safety critical systems, and must be performed with the highest level of quality. The group interfaces with NAVSEA, NUWC, shipyards, design, and the Electronic Development Lab as well as EB Program office and other engineering disciplines, and multiple vendors.

Electric Boat offers Flexible Work Arrangements that allows some work to be performed remotely and at home. This varies from position to position based on the amount of classified material the department interacts with, as well as a few other variables. Please ask for more details on how it applies to this opening during discussions with the department.
