Electrical Engineer
We are seeking a skilled Electrical Engineer to join our team of innovators. As an integral member of our engineering group, you will be responsible for designing, developing, and testing cutting-edge electronics systems.
This is an exceptional opportunity to work on high-reliability electronics for rockets and spacecraft, driving system trades, requirements capture, component selection, analysis, schematic capture, prototyping, bring-up, debugging, documentation, manufacturing, and test.
* Rapidly develop high-reliability electronics for rockets and spacecraft.
* Drive system trades, requirements capture, component selection, analysis, schematic capture, prototyping, bring-up, debugging, documentation, manufacturing, and test.
* Create development and qualification testing campaigns and exercise designs to their limits.
* Support hardware through production, integration, and flight.
* Work with experts from other teams and departments to drive changes that make the system more efficient, manufacturable, and reliable.
To succeed in this role, you should have a strong background in electrical engineering, excellent analytical and problem-solving skills, and experience working with electronics design tools. Additionally, you should be able to effectively communicate complex technical information and work collaboratively as part of a dynamic team.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS:
* Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering.
* 1+ years of experience designing, building, or testing circuit boards or other electronics (research, internships, and extracurricular academic projects qualify).
PREFERRED SKILLS AND EXPERIENCE:
* Passion for spaceflight and curiosity for electronics in high-reliability applications.
* Experience making products or systems work with minimal time and resources.
* Experience developing fundamentally new hardware, not just incrementally updating legacy hardware.
* Experience with circuit board layout, especially for switching power converters or high-speed digital applications.
* Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
* Extended hours and weekend work may be required to support critical project and mission milestones.
