Standard Job Description
Conducts or participates in the research, design, development, and testing of COTS or custom computing hardware and/or otherelectrical components. Develops designs for the installation of components and assembliesinto chassis, racks, cabinets,workstations, customer facilities, and/or shelters. Plans, directs, reviews and coordinates preparation of project documentation to ensure customer contract and company requirements are met. Prepares specifications, evaluates vendors, and analyzes test reports.
The role of the Hardware Engineer Associate is important in fulfilling the strategic roadmap goals of Lockheed Martin Canada Inc (Lockheed Martin). The candidate will work with the electrical engineering lead to interpret the electrical schematic, building system interconnect diagrams and cable drawings. As part of the Engineering team, the candidate will be directly involved in understanding customer requirements and applying best-in-class product solutions as they relate to cabling and interconnect design. These resultant products/systems will serve to maintain Lockheed Martin's robust position in the Naval market space.
