Job Description Help for Partial Job Description. Opens a new window. Avionics Engineer (C&DH) We are seeking an experienced Avionics Engineer (C&DH) to support the analysis, integration, and verification of flight avionics and Command and Data Handling (C&DH) subsystems for spacecraft and other flight systems. The Avionics Engineer bridges flight hardware architecture with embedded software interfaces across flight computers, data buses, sensor and actuator interfaces, communications, telemetry, and associated electrical systems throughout the spacecraft lifecycle. The engineer will evaluate avionics architectures, technical analyses, verification approaches, test results, and system interfaces to identify technical risks and support sound engineering and mission decisions. Key Responsibilities

• Analyze, evaluate, and verify avionics and C&DH architectures, including single-board computers (SBCs), payload controllers, power distribution units, and mass memory storage systems.
• Validate spacecraft communication buses and telemetry and command protocols.
• Review and assess avionics and C&DH requirements, verification methods, and verification evidence to ensure system-level requirements are adequately demonstrated.
• Evaluate flight avionics designs, analyses, interface definitions, schematics, technical documentation, and test results to assess performance, compliance, and technical risk.
• Analyze interfaces between C&DH systems and other spacecraft subsystems, including electrical power, thermal, guidance, navigation and control, propulsion, payloads, and flight software.
• Support integration, functional, qualification, and acceptance testing of flight avionics and C&DH hardware and software.
• Evaluate test results and correlate analytical or simulation results with hardware and system-level performance.
• Participate in avionics and C&DH anomaly and failure investigations, including root-cause analysis, contributing-cause assessment, and evaluation of corrective actions.
• Support technical reviews and communicate findings, risks, uncertainties, and recommendations to engineering and program leadership.
• Support spacecraft mission preparation and operations activities involving command, telemetry, communications, and C&DH systems.
