Spacecraft Electrical Engineer

Key Responsibilities: Design and develop high reliability electrical systems and PCBs for satellite devices. Drive system trades, requirements capture, component selection, analysis, schematic capture, prototyping, bring-up, debugging, documentation, manufacturing, and test. Perform PCB troubleshooting and root cause analysis down to component level. Define and lead satellite harness definition and fabrication processes. Prepare fabrication drawings, assembly drawings, BOMs, and general documentation required for design transfer to fabrication and assembly.

Minimum Qualifications: Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering or related field required. Ideally 2 – 4+ years of hardware development experience in PCB board design and layout and electronic system prototyping and validation. Advanced proficiency with design tools for schematic capture (Altium preferred). Comfortable working in the lab with oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies, and logic analyzers.

Desirable Skills and Experience: Excitement for making systems smarter, better, faster, cheaper. Experience making products or systems work with minimal time and resources. Experience with developing fundamentally new hardware, not just incrementally updating legacy hardware. Experience with circuit simulation tools such as LTSpice. Soldering skills on surface mount and thru-hole components. Experience with switching power supply design. Experience with requirements management. Experience with system verification and validation. Embedded systems and microcontroller implementation and programming. Experience with high performance digital processors, FPGAs, memory chips, or network switches.
