Hardware Engineer at Exelis
"I love being a Hardware Engineer. This position gives you a broad range of areas to work and also a variety of engineering disciplines to work in. This can also be detrimental when certain positions requires a certain amount of years of experience in one area. A Hardware Engineer usually becomes a jack of all trades and a master of none, however that's not always the case. This career can be very rewarding and fulfilling."
