Staff Satellite FPGA Engineer (Digital Logic)

Saratoga, CAOn-siteFull-time

AI Summary

Staff Satellite FPGA Engineer who owns FPGA RTL development for LEO satellite avionics, collaborating across electrical, software, and systems 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 FPGA Engineer will participate in all aspects of the development and test of avionics FPGA
RTL designs for E-Space satellites. The ideal candidate has 10+ years of experience in FPGA firmware development including RTL design, simulations, analysis, verification, and HW 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.
