Hardware Team-Lead

We are looking for

For our site in Rosh Ha'Ayin, we are seeking a Hardware Team Lead to join FUSE, a subsidiary of Elbit Systems that integrates autonomous robotics, intelligent sensing, and mission systems under one agile organization. In this leadership position, you will own the full hardware lifecycle—from architecture and design through bring-up, validation, certification, and production support—and play a key role in shaping next-generation defense-grade autonomous products

In this role you will

Lead and develop a multidisciplinary hardware team of approximately five engineers, including planning, prioritization, mentorship, reviews, and hiring

Own end-to-end hardware delivery: system and board architecture, PCB development, bring-up, debugging, validation, and transition to mass production

Ensure reliability and robustness of deployed systems through structured root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and design improvements

Collaborate with Integration, Mechanical, Manufacturing/EMS, Quality, Supply Chain, NPI, and PM teams to ensure smooth execution and timely delivery

Manage engineering change processes, BOM control, alternate part strategies, and cost/availability trade-offs at scale

Drive compliance readiness for MIL-STD, CE/FCC, and SAR standards, including lab coordination and issue mitigation

Define and scale hardware test infrastructure, align requirements, and ensure execution of the ATE strategy

Requirements

B.Sc. in Electrical or Computer Engineering (or equivalent)

At least 3 years’ experience managing teams of 5+ engineers, and a minimum of 5 years’ experience in board design

Hands-on experience in PCB design, bring-up, and debugging

Proven ownership of transition from R&D to mass production, including DFM/DFT considerations, production support, and yield-quality focus

Experience working within regulated and qualification-driven environments such as MIL-STD, CE/FCC, SAR, and collaboration with external labs

Relevant expertise in one or more domains: low-power sensing (including seismic), radar, RF measurement, MCU/SoC & mixed-signal embedded design, high-reliability high-volume production

Excellent communication skills, ability to prioritize and drive delivery with minimal oversight

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in drones, robotics, navigation systems, or autonomous platforms

Background in RF (layout, EMI mitigation, lab troubleshooting) – advantage

Hands-on experience with Altium Designer or equivalent CAD tools

Knowledge of low-power sensing systems and/or radar subsystems – advantage

Only relevant applications will be answered
