Work with electrical engineers to define and document mechanical interfaces for circuit cards, connectors, wiring, and harnesses

Help investigate well-defined design and manufacturing issues, evaluate solutions, and document results

Support prototype builds, system integration, environmental testing, failure analysis, and flight-test readiness activities

Follow, and contribute to, established engineering processes, configuration-control practices, and functional best practices

Develop plans for assigned tasks, communicate progress and risks, and execute against team priorities

Build effective working relationships within the team, incorporate feedback, and share relevant knowledge

Contribute to products that advance Shield AI’s mission while demonstrating the company’s values
