Computer/Electrical Engineer III

WR Systems • Virginia Beach, VA • 2h ago

Mission

Out at sea, there's no margin for failure. Naval systems must operate reliably in extreme conditions, constant vibration, high heat, saltwater corrosion, and continuous operational demand. The hardware that supports these missions must be engineered not just to function, but to endure.

At WR, we design and deliver the mechanical and electrical systems that protect, support, and enable critical naval technologies. From concept through deployment, our work ensures that mission-critical equipment performs exactly as expected, when it matters most.

Summary

WR has an opportunity for a Computer/Electrical Engineer III to design, develop, test, and support complex electronic and system-level solutions, ensuring performance, reliability, and mission readiness across hardware, software, and networked environments.

What You'll Do

Independently design electronic circuits, components and integrated systems, utilizing ferroelectric, nonlinear, dielectric, phosphorescent, photo-conductive, and thermoelectric properties of materials

Autonomously design test control apparatus and equipment, determines procedures for testing products and directs engineering personnel in fabrication of test control apparatus and equipment

Direct field operations and maintenance of electronic installations

Evaluate operational systems and recommends design modifications to eliminate causes of malfunctions or changes in system requirements

Use computer-assisted engineering and design software and equipment to perform engineering tasks
