Electrical Engineer

Company Overview

Red 6 is an innovative Augmented Reality (AR) technology startup leading the way in synthetic air combat training. Our primary technology, supporting our ATARS product, enables pilots to simulate the cognitive challenges of flying while accessing realistic, scalable training in dynamic outdoor environments.

The Role

As an Electrical Engineer at Red 6, you will contribute to the design, development, and testing of advanced electronics for aerospace applications. You will work alongside experienced engineers to help create high-reliability printed circuit board assemblies (PCBAs) capable of withstanding harsh environments and compliant with relevant military standards.

You will assist in designing hardware that interfaces with aircraft mission systems and safety-critical systems, gaining hands-on experience throughout the product lifecycle — from schematic capture and PCB layout to prototyping, bring-up, and testing. You will be expected to follow established electrical engineering processes and contribute to maintaining quality and consistency in designs.

Responsibilities

• Assist in the architecture, design, development, and integration of electronic hardware for aerospace AR systems.

• Support schematic capture, component placement, and PCB layout.

• Participate in prototyping, hardware bring-up, validation, and transition to production for custom CCAs/PCBAs.

• Help conduct power and signal integrity simulations under guidance.

• Contribute to design for rigid, flex, and rigid-flex board structures.

• Support compliance efforts for environmental, EMC, and MIL-STD requirements.

• Help maintain electrical engineering documentation and follow established processes.

• Assist with design reviews, troubleshooting, and resolving design issues with senior engineers.

• Work with vendors and manufacturing partners to support fabrication and assembly activities.

• Perform testing and verification using standard lab equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, power supplies).

Qualifications

Required:

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.

• 2–4 years of experience in electronics design (internships, co-ops, or academic projects acceptable).

• Familiarity with:

  • Digital electronics fundamentals

  • MIPI standards

  • Display and camera system integration concepts

  • Microcontroller-based designs

  • Power circuit design fundamentals

• Exposure to design for manufacturability (DFM) concepts.

• Familiarity with power and signal integrity simulation concepts.

• Basic understanding of rigid, flex, and rigid-flex board design principles.

• Ability to use schematic capture and PCB design tools (Altium Designer preferred).

• Ability to use standard lab test equipment.

• Strong problem-solving skills and willingness to learn.

Preferred:

• Experience with aerospace or other regulated industries.

• Exposure to environmental and EMC testing standards (DO-160, MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461).

• Hands-on experience with FPGA-based designs or high-speed digital interfaces.

Full-Time Employee Benefits

• Healthcare, Dental, and Vision (100% coverage for Employees)

• Paid time off, including vacation, sick, paid holidays, and parental leave

• Short and Long-Term Disability

• Flexible Spending Account (FSA)

• 401(k) Retirement Plan

• Voluntary Worksite Benefits (Accident, Critical Illness, and Hospital Indemnity)
