Electrical Engineer

Description

Who Are We?

My client is a growing US based defense company headquartered in Newington, NH, specializing in electro-optical and electro-mechanical systems. Their technology integrates advanced digital sights and HUD systems mounted on weapons and helmets. These wearable, battery-powered platforms combine hardware, firmware, and sensor systems for real-time battlefield awareness. With fewer than 500 employees, they are transitioning from a small business into a mid-sized defense innovator. They've recently secured multiple contracts, leading to a significant expansion in both scope and opportunity.

Why Join?

Work on cutting-edge wearable technology with military and defense applications.

High autonomy and creative freedom, roles are partially defined, allowing input into architecture and system design.

Remote flexibility, with a hybrid onboarding period.
