Staff Satellite Electrical Engineer for Mixed Signal Circuits leads end-to-end mixed-signal PCBA development for space avionics, from requirements to flight-ready testing, collaborating with multiple engineering teams.

About this role

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

The Staff Satellite Electrical Engineerfor Mixed Signal Circuits willparticipate in all aspects of the development and test of avionics hardware for E-Space satellites. The ideal candidate has 10+ years of experience in electrical hardware design including schematic capture, PCB layout, and testing.

This position will report to the Director of Electrical Engineering and will work closely with the Electrical, Software, and Systems Engineering teams. The successful candidate will be based in our Saratoga, CA office.

What you’ll be doing:

Own mixed signal PCBA development from clean sheet to flight.

Develop PCBA requirements, architectures, and con-ops in collaboration with other engineering disciplines.

Schematic capture and PCB layout of complex power, digital, and analog circuit PCBAs using Altium Designer.

Circuit analysis including power, signal integrity, SWaP, tolerance, and reliability related.

PCBA design verification testing, qualification testing, and system integration testing.

Lead design reviews for inter-disciplinary audiences.

Manufacturing and flight support as needed.

What you bring to this role:

Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent.
