About the Job

You will play a key role within the engineering team, contributing to the design, development, and validation of advanced electronic systems for space applications.

Your role will encompass end-to-end hardware development, including schematic capture, PCB layout support, component selection, and ensuring compliance with EMC and space reliability requirements. Your responsibilities will vary daily and may include hands-on design work, cross-functional collaboration, and technical leadership on complex programs.

This role offers strong growth potential, including opportunities to lead hardware development efforts, mentor junior engineers, and influence system architecture decisions.

You will become a critical member of a team of engineers, scientists, and space enthusiasts who are passionate about contributing to humanity’s next bold steps in space exploration.

Tasks and Responsibilities

Design and develop analog and digital electronic circuits for space and mission-critical applications
Lead schematic design and guide PCB layout to ensure signal integrity, power integrity, and manufacturability
Perform and support electromagnetic compatibility (EMC/EMI) analysis, testing, and mitigation strategies
Select, qualify, and manage EEE (Electrical, Electronic, and Electromechanical) parts in accordance with space and high-reliability standards
Conduct design reviews (PDR, CDR) and ensure compliance with program requirements and industry standards
Support hardware bring-up, debugging, and environmental testing (thermal, vibration, radiation as applicable)
Collaborate closely with mechanical, software, and systems engineering teams
Contribute to documentation, including design reports, test procedures, and compliance matrices

Accountability:

Delivery of high-quality, reliable hardware designs on schedule
Ensuring compliance with EMC and reliability requirements
Technical leadership and mentorship within the electrical engineering function

Collaboration:

Work with cross-functional engineering teams, program managers, and external partners/suppliers
Support the Mission Control team by advancing hardware capabilities for space missions
Collaborate with colleagues to continuously improve engineering processes and product quality
Contribute to a positive, startup-oriented team culture

Skills and Experience

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
7+ years of relevant industry experience in electrical/embedded hardware design
Strong experience in PCB design (multi-layer, high-speed, mixed-signal systems)
Proven expertise in EMC/EMI design, testing, and mitigation
Experience with EEE parts selection and qualification for high-reliability or space environments
Familiarity with relevant standards (e.g., IPC, MIL, ECSS, NASA guidelines)
Experience with lab equipment (oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, network analyzers, etc.)
Design for manufacturability (DFM) and design for test (DFT) practices
Familiarity with embedded C/C++ or scripting (Python, MATLAB) for testing and automation

Soft skills:

Ability to prioritize workload and work efficiently and autonomously
Proven capacity to meet deadlines in an environment with shifting priorities
Strong problem-solving and decision-making skills
Proactive mindset toward improving processes and tools
Excellent written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills

Preference may be given to those with:

Experience in space, aerospace, or other high-reliability industries
Familiarity with radiation effects and mitigation techniques
Experience with hardware validation in regulated environments

Bonus points for:

Experience leading design reviews or small engineering teams
Knowledge of FPGA-based systems or high-speed interfaces
Previous experience with space mission hardware development
