What are the responsibilities and job description for the Electrical Engineer II position at Acutronic Group?
Join our Team!
We offer 100% employer-paid benefits and an opportunity to work on cutting edge technology in a dynamic team!
Acutronic is looking for an Electrical Engineer II to join our team in Austin, TX. In this role, you will be responsible for contributing to the development and optimization of electro-mechanical actuators for military UAV systems. Our ideal candidate will have expertise in power electronics, motor control algorithms, and sensor integration, with the ability to design and analyze complex electrical systems for high-reliability, high-performance aerospace applications.
Electrical Engineer II
Your Roles/Responsibilities:
The Acutronic Group has a proud history of building technologies and teams that are crucial to the aerospace, defense, and transportation industries.
Acutronic’s Simulation & Test Divisionis the global market leader in high-performance motion simulation and test equipment. Our rate tables and advanced centrifuges are used to test or calibrate inertial sensors, navigation systems, and stabilized electro-optics. Hardware-In-the-Loop motion simulators replicate the flight motion profiles and engagement scenarios of missiles. Geotechnical centrifuges and their related accessories are designed to study the behavior of structures, soil mechanics, and earthquakes. Our vibration test systems (shaker tables) allow users to carry out environmental tests to ensure the robustness or quality of manufactured products. The Division also develops and refurbishes stabilized or gimbaled-platforms utilized in applications such as tracking mounts, gun turrets, and directed-energy systems.
Acutronic’s Aerospace Components Divisonmanufactures specialty components for use on uncrewed aerial vehicles, land defense applications, and missile systems. These products are used on next-generation aerospace programs and include a range of electric power systems, servo-actuators, micro-turbines, and Hybrid-Electric-Propulsion-Systems. We offer standard products and excel at designing highly customized solutions for demanding mission requirements.
The Acutronic Group employs approximately 300 employees across sites in Austin, Texas; Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Switzerland; Germany; France; and India.
