About Us

Zeromark builds AI-driven counter-drone systems that actually work in combat. No PowerPoints. No hype. Just field-proven technology that saves lives.

We've doubled year-over-year for two straight years, winning contracts that prove what we've always known : real innovation happens in the dirt, not in conference rooms. Our systems transform standard weapons into AI-powered platforms that detect, track, and neutralize drone threats-because a $200 drone shouldn't require a million-dollar countermeasure.

Here's what makes us different : ZeroMark operators don't build from behind screens. You'll validate tech from Blackhawk helicopters, train alongside Tier-1 units (who happen to be our coworkers), and test at legendary ranges from White Sands to the cliffs of Hawaii. When we say field-tested, we mean you'll shoot it, fly with it, and push it to failure. We don't tweet about changing the world-we're too busy actually doing it. Dark humor required, thick skin recommended.

If you want to make an actual impact-and have some unforgettable Tuesday afternoons along the way-let's talk. We're all about delivering practical, field-tested tech, not just theories.

What You'll Do :

As an Electrical Design Engineer, you'll be instrumental in designing, developing, and testing the core electronic systems for our next-generation counter-drone platforms. Your responsibilities will include :

  • Circuit Design : Architecting and implementing complex analog and digital circuits for RF, power management, signal processing, and control systems.
  • PCB Layout : Designing multi-layer printed circuit boards (PCBs) with a focus on signal integrity, power delivery, and manufacturability.
  • Component Selection : Identifying and evaluating electronic components, ensuring optimal performance, reliability, and cost-effectiveness.
  • Prototyping & Testing : Building and testing prototypes, performing rigorous validation and verification to ensure designs meet stringent performance and reliability requirements.
  • Firmware & Software Collaboration : Working closely with firmware and software engineers to integrate hardware and ensure seamless system functionality.
  • Troubleshooting & Optimization : Diagnosing and resolving hardware issues, and continuously optimizing designs for performance, efficiency, and robustness.
  • Documentation : Creating comprehensive design documentation, schematics, layouts, and test procedures.

What You'll Need :

We're seeking a highly motivated and skilled Electrical Design Engineer with :

  • Education : Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field.
  • Experience : 5+ years of experience in electrical hardware design, preferably in the defense, aerospace, or related high-tech industries.
  • Technical Expertise :
  • Strong proficiency in analog and digital circuit design.

  • Hands-on experience with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer, OrCAD, Eagle).
  • Knowledge of RF principles and high-speed digital design.
  • Experience with microcontrollers, FPGAs, and embedded systems.
  • Familiarity with various communication protocols (e.g., I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet).
  • Proficiency in using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers).
  • Problem-Solving Skills : Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities with a keen eye for detail.
  • Team Player : Ability to collaborate effectively in a dynamic, cross-functional team environment.
  • Innovation : A passion for innovation and a desire to contribute to cutting-edge technology.
  • Security Clearance : Ability to obtain and maintain a U.S. security clearance (U.S. citizenship required).
  • Bonus Points For :

  • Experience with counter-drone systems or related defense technologies.
  • Familiarity with DFM (Design for Manufacturability) and DFT (Design for Testability).
  • Knowledge of electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) and electromagnetic interference (EMI) principles.
  • Why Join Us?

  • Impactful Work : Contribute to critical national security initiatives and make a real difference in protecting lives and assets.
  • Cutting-Edge Technology : Work on groundbreaking technologies in a rapidly evolving field.
  • Dynamic Environment : Thrive in a fast-paced, agile startup culture where your ideas are valued.
  • Growth Opportunities : Grow your career alongside a rapidly expanding company.
  • Competitive Compensation : Receive a competitive salary and benefits package.
  • If you're ready to take on exciting challenges and be a part of a team that's shaping the future of defense technology, apply now!
