About Rivet
Rivet is an American company building integrated task systems — fusing hardened hardware with software, sensors, AI, and networking — for industrial workforces and defense personnel.

We serve the people who build, operate, maintain, and defend our way of life. From technicians and engineers to first responders and service members, they embody the hard work, ingenuity, and meritocratic values that drive Western prosperity. Yet too often they are forced to rely on outdated tools that fail under modern pressures. Rivet exists to reset that priority.
At Rivet, you’ll join a mission-driven team that fuses disciplines to deliver decisive outcomes where they matter most. Whether shaping our technology, strengthening our partnerships, or building our culture, every role here contributes to equipping the front lines with the modern systems they deserve.

• Work with external manufacturers, ODM partners, and certification laboratories to debug issues, execute testing, and obtain required certifications.
• Establish EMI/EMC test strategies and drive issues to resolution from early design through production.
Requirements
• 4+ years of professional experience in EMI/EMC engineering, design, testing, or compliance for complex electronic systems.
• Strong working knowledge of MIL-STD-461G/H requirements and test methods, particularly radiated emissions and susceptibility.
• Hands-on experience diagnosing and resolving EMI/EMC issues at both the PCB/subsystem and complete-system levels.
• Experience reviewing PCB layouts and hardware designs for EMI/EMC performance, including grounding, shielding, filtering, and signal integrity considerations.
• Strong cross-functional communication skills and experience working with EE, RF, mechanical, manufacturing, and external certification teams.
