What this job asks for AI summary
A lead-level systems engineering role focused on the full lifecycle of MEMS devices for aerospace inertial instruments — from design and requirements development through manufacturing, validation, and production launch. The work spans troubleshooting current manufacturing issues, new product development, and next-generation device roadmapping, in close collaboration with systems, hardware, test, and manufacturing teams. Best suited to a seasoned engineer with deep MEMS or analog electronics experience who can also lead stakeholder engagement and mentor others.
Senior level · 10+ years · Minneapolis-St. Paul-Bloomington, MN-WI · Bachelor's required · Full-time

Why we read it this way (6)
This role is primarily a hardware/systems engineering position focused on MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) design, manufacture, and test for aerospace inertial instruments — it does not map cleanly to any standard computer/mathematical SOC. 15-1299 (Computer Occupations, All Other) is used as the closest available code; 15-1211 (Computer Systems Analysts) is noted as a distant runner-up given the systems engineering and requirements-development aspects. Neither is a strong fit for what is fundamentally an electrical/mechanical engineering role.
The JD lists ANSYS, Siemens NX, COMSOL, and FEMTools as interchangeable options within a single 'must have' requirement ('Proficient in ANSYS, Siemens NX, COMSOL, or FEMTools'); ANSYS is used as the primary name with the others as alternatives.
PSPICE, QSPICE, LTSPICE, and TINA are listed together as interchangeable circuit simulation tools under the 'We Value' (preferred) section.
Siemens L-Edit MEMS layout/EDA/CAD tools appear under 'We Value' and are explicitly framed as preferred/nice-to-have.
The role requires U.S. citizenship, permanent residency, or protected status (asylum/refugee) due to export control laws — not a formal security clearance gate, so the clearance requirement is set to None.
The title 'Lead Systems Engineer' carries no standard seniority level word; the title states no level. The 10+ years requirement and cross-functional leadership scope support a Senior classification.
