We are seeking a Senior / Lead Electronics Engineer to design, build, and qualify electronics for the next generation of space missions.
* Own end-to-end development of space-qualified electronics, from requirements and architecture to flight hardware.
* Design, prototype, and review analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronics and PCB layouts.
* Lead schematic capture, component selection, PCB design, and design-for-manufacturing/test.
* Define and execute test, validation, and qualification plans for space electronics (functional, environmental, and reliability testing).
* Ensure designs meet space requirements including radiation tolerance, EMI/EMC, reliability, and derating.
* Collaborate closely with systems, mechanical, software, and AIT teams to integrate electronics into satellite subsystems.
* Provide technical leadership through design reviews, mentoring, and guidance of junior engineers.
* Contribute to process improvement, technical standards, and architectural decisions across the electronics domain.
Fundamental Requirements
* Education: Degree in Electrical Engineering, Electronics Engineering, or a related field.
* Experience:
* 5+ years of professional experience developing electronics for demanding environments.
* Demonstrated experience with space electronics or similar high-reliability systems (e.g. aerospace, defense).
* Strong fundamentals in analog and digital electronics.
* Proven experience with schematic design, PCB layout, and board bring-up.
* Solid understanding of space-specific constraints such as radiation, EMC/EMI, thermal behavior, and reliability.
* Experience taking hardware from concept through testing and qualification.
* EMI/EMC design, testing, and compliance for space hardware.
* Reliability analysis, including derating, worst-case analysis, and FMECA.
* Interface electronics for sensors, actuators, RF, or avionics subsystems.
Preferred Experience
* Prior experience in a technical lead or team lead role, including mentoring or guiding other engineers.
* Electronics development for satellites, spacecraft, or other space systems.
* Radiation-tolerant design, component selection, and mitigation techniques.
* Environmental testing (thermal vacuum, vibration, shock).
