Original job description

At Spaceium, we are building spacecraft systems designed to push the boundaries of what's possible in orbit. As an Electrical Engineer, you will own the design, testing, and integration of the electrical and electronic systems that power and control our spacecraft - from schematic and PCB through harnessing, bring-up, and mission integration, in high-stakes, resource-constrained environments.

Responsibilities

Design spacecraft avionics: schematic capture and PCB layout for power, control, and signal boards
Design and build wiring harnesses and manage electrical integration across subsystems
Bring up, test, and debug electronic boards and subsystems
Develop and run electrical tests - power, signal integrity, functional, and environmental
Design power systems (batteries, power distribution, regulation) and support EPS architecture
Own documentation: schematics, ICDs, test procedures, and reports for design reviews
Set up lab instrumentation and test equipment, and support hardware-in-the-loop testing
Collaborate closely with mechanical, embedded software, and systems engineers
Support spacecraft integration, environmental testing, and anomaly resolution

Basic Qualifications

Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
Solid foundation in circuit design, analysis, and electronics
Experience with schematic capture and PCB layout tools (Altium, KiCad, or similar)
Comfort with lab test equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, DMMs)
Exposure to at least one programming language (Python, C, or C++)

What We're Looking For

We're building technology that hasn't been done before. Experience is helpful, but curiosity, drive, and the ability to learn quickly matter more. If you're excited about spacecraft, enjoy solving hard engineering problems, and want to help build something new, we encourage you to apply - whether you're early in your career or more experienced.

Preferred Skills

Creative problem solver with strong first-principles thinking, capable of assessing risk and making decisions with limited data.
Experience in a nimble, technical engineering role, with a scrappy, entrepreneurial approach to meeting tight time or budget constraints.
Hands-on experience building and testing real electronics - student design teams (rocketry, CubeSat, FSAE), research, or industry
Experience bringing up custom PCBs from bare board to working hardware
Familiarity with power electronics, motor drive, or spacecraft EPS
Experience with microcontrollers, sensors, and embedded integration
Familiarity with communication interfaces (RS422, I2C, SPI, CAN, Ethernet)
Excellent verbal and written communication skills, collaborative team player, and detail-oriented with a focus on quality.

Additional Requirements

Extended hours and weekend work may be required to support critical project and mission milestones.
This role requires a physical presence at the Ottawa facility.

Compensation

Salary: $75,000 – $110,000 CAD per year
Equity: 0.1% – 0.5%

If you're excited about shaping the future of space systems, we'd love to hear from you.

Please submit any projects that you have worked on.
