We look for people who have bold new ideas, courage and a pioneering spirit to join forces to invent the future, and have fun along the way. Our culture thrives on intellectual curiosity, cognitive diversity and bringing your whole self to work and we have an insatiable drive to do what others think is impossible. Our employees are not only part of history, they're making history. Northrop Grumman is seeking an experienced Electrical Engineer to support our Armament Systems business site in Mesa, AZ . Our Mesa facility is home to the Bushmaster® line of Chain Guns®, a premier line of medium caliber gun systems that support our customers’ and warfighters’ missions. Recently expanded, facility includes production and test range areas. About the Role: We are seeking a self motivated and innovative Sr. Principal Electrical Engineer to join our controls group on the medium caliber Bushmaster gun team. In this role you will design, test, and troubleshoot electrical equipment and control systems for complex aerospace and defense projects. You will work in a fast paced, high impact environment that blends cutting edge design with real world applications to ensure our systems are efficient, reliable, and safe. While this role is primarily onsite, flexible work arrangements and limited remote work options are available. Key Roles & Responsibilities: Lead electrical design projects of significant complexity that meet stakeholder requirements. Conduct research, design, and development in areas including power conditioning electronics, analog and digital circuit design, FPGA/ASIC design and verification, and other essential electrical engineering functions. Plan, design, develop, simulate, and test electrical circuits for military applications using state of the art tools and methodologies. Generate detailed design schematics using CAD tools such as Mentor Graphics and related software (e.g., Mentor System Vision, Power Intent, Hyperlynx, LTspice) to predict circuit performance. Oversee board layout and printed wiring board (PWB) design, ensuring first pass success by integrating robust circuit schematics, component selection, and efficient design practices. Assemble, test, and refine product breadboards, prototypes, and new electrical assemblies throughout the development lifecycle. Develop and execute comprehensive electrical schematics, EMC/EMI strategies, and high/low voltage wiring harness architectures. Perform circuit simulations, functional testing, and analyses with computer assisted design software and specialized simulation tools. Drive hands on testing, integration, troubleshooting, and root cause analysis for both new and legacy electrical systems. Provide technical leadership for complex programs and coordinate engineering efforts across multi disciplinary teams. Develop and manage test programs: planning, execution, and documentation to verify subsystem performance. Prepare technical documents and test reports (including PDR, CDR, V&V, manuals, ICDs) and present findings to leadership and external customers. Utilize electronic test instruments (e.g., voltmeters, DMMs, oscilloscopes) to evaluate system performance while ensuring adherence to safety standards, MIL STD, QMS, and best design practices. Collaborate closely with software and other engineering teams to resolve challenges cost effectively. Mentor and guide junior engineers while contributing to trade studies and project estimations. Proactively adopt new design techniques and emerging technologies to deliver innovative solutions. Maintain a safe, organized engineering lab environment, including safety training and equipment management. Embrace a systems engineering mindset; proactively identify opportunities for process improvement and step into different roles as necessary to support the team’s broader objectives. Required
