About Freeform

3D printing experience is not required to be successful here - rather we look for smart, motivated, collaborative engineers who love solving hard problems and creating amazing technology!

Responsibilities

  • Assister à la conception, au développement et à l'essai d'électroniques et de circuits imprimés fiables.
  • Participer à la modélisation et à la simulation des circuits pour analyser les performances et valider les conceptions.
  • Collaborer avec des équipes interfonctionnelles pour soutenir le développement, l'intégration et les tests des produits.

Requirements

  • Hands on electrical experience from internships or engineering clubs such as FSAE, Baja SAE, solar car, rocket club, robotics club, or similar
  • Well-versed in electrical engineering fundamentals and comfortable taking a first-principles approach to solving problems
  • Currently enrolled in a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or computer engineering from an ABET accredited university or college
  • Experience with sensors, embedded microcontroller design and firmware, and FPGA hardware and software development

Advanced degree (Master's, PhD) in electrical engineering

  • Experience with high-speed data acquisition systems, high-accuracy motion systems, high-speed scanning systems, or similar camera/telemetry-based control systems
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, ambiguous environments and iterating quickly (comfortable building the plane as we fly it)
  • Strong communicator who collaborates across disciplines and proactively seeks support when needed
  • Willing to take ownership of tasks big and small, with a hands-on, problem-solving mindset
  • Strong work ethic with a refuse-to-fail mindset
  • Demonstrated indicators of excellence and/or achieving success against adversity (i.e. top academic performance, leadership in engineering clubs, first-generation college student, or other examples of resilience and achievement)

Preferred

  • Familiarity with industrial automation technologies, robotics, spacecraft avionics, or similar high-performance electromechanical system
