Electrical Design Engineer

About Us

Zeromark builds AI-driven counter-drone systems that actually work in combat. No PowerPoints. No hype. Just field-proven technology that saves lives.

We've doubled year-over-year for two straight years, winning contracts that prove what we've always known: real innovation happens in the dirt, not in conference rooms. Our systems transform standard weapons into AI-powered platforms that detect, track, and neutralize drone threats—because a $200 drone shouldn't require a million-dollar countermeasure.

Here's what makes us different: ZeroMark operators don't build from behind screens. You'll validate tech from Blackhawk helicopters, train alongside Tier-1 units (who happen to be our coworkers), and test at legendary ranges from White Sands to the cliffs of Hawaii. When we say field-tested, we mean you'll shoot it, fly with it, and push it to failure. We don't tweet about changing the world—we're too busy actually doing it. Dark humor required, thick skin recommended.

If you want to make an actual impact—and have some unforgettable Tuesday afternoons along the way—let's talk. We're all about delivering practical, field-tested tech, not just theories.

What You'll Do:

As an Electrical Design Engineer, you'll be instrumental in designing, developing, and testing the core electronic systems for our next-generation counter-drone platforms. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Circuit Design: Architecting and implementing complex analog and digital circuits for RF, power management, signal processing, and control systems.

  • PCB Layout: Designing multi-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) with a focus on signal integrity, power delivery, and manufacturability.

  • Component Selection: Identifying and evaluating electronic components, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.

  • Prototyping & Testing: Building and testing prototypes, performing rigorous validation and verification to ensure designs meet stringent performance and reliability requirements.

  • Firmware & Software Collaboration: Working closely with firmware and software engineers to integrate hardware and ensure seamless system functionality.

  • Troubleshooting & Optimization: Diagnosing and resolving hardware issues, and continuously optimizing designs for performance, efficiency, and robustness.

  • Documentation: Creating comprehensive design documentation, schematics, layouts, and test procedures.

What You’ll Need:

We're seeking a highly motivated and skilled Electrical Design Engineer with:

  • Education: Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.

  • Experience: 5+ years of experience in electrical hardware design, preferably in the defense, aerospace, or related high-tech industries.

  • Technical Expertise:

    • Strong proficiency in analog and digital circuit design.

    • Hands-on experience with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD, Eagle).

    • Knowledge of RF principles and high-speed digital design.

    • Experience with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and embedded systems.

    • Familiarity with various communication protocols (e.g., I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet).

    • Proficiency in using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers).

  • Problem-Solving Skills: Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities with a keen eye for detail.

  • Team Player: Ability to collaborate effectively in a dynamic, cross-functional team environment.

  • Innovation: A passion for innovation and a desire to contribute to cutting-edge technology.

  • Security Clearance: Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (U.S. citizenship required).

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience with counter-drone systems or related defense technologies.

  • Familiarity with DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFT (Design for Testability).

  • Knowledge of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) principles.

Why Join Us?

  • Impactful Work: Contribute to critical national security initiatives and make a real difference in protecting lives and assets.

  • Cutting-Edge Technology: Work on groundbreaking technologies in a rapidly evolving field.

  • Dynamic Environment: Thrive in a fast-paced, agile startup culture where your ideas are valued.

  • Growth Opportunities: Grow your career alongside a rapidly expanding company.

  • Competitive Compensation: Receive a competitive salary and benefits package.

If you're ready to take on exciting challenges and be a part of a team that's shaping the future of defense technology, apply now!
