Job Description

Job Description A client is seeking a team of Electrical Design Engineers to support a large research and development project within the space and defense industry. This role will work as a part of the Electronic Sensors department which is responsible for the design, building, and testing, of any electronic widget that will be launched into space. We are looking to add a dynamic, creative, and skilled Electrical Engineer to work alongside rocket scientist, aerospace engineers, robotic professionals, and electrical technicians to complete the entire product lifecycle of flight hardware from concept to production. This hardware will perform under stringent aero and space environmental conditions. This work involves analyzing, designing, simulating, fabricating, testing, and conducting performance validation and verification of electronic instrumentation systems and circuit boards. These instruments will be put on a piece of hardware, launched into space, and used to capture any type of data for a multitude of space missions. Project include Satellite communication instruments to discover environment destruction, Autonomous Robotic Arms that repair the International Space Station, Interplanetary discovery vehicles to further human exploration, MARS rovers, OZONE atmospheric measurement instruments, RF communication devices for astronauts' communication, etc.. Candidates must have the ability to develop high reliability digital circuitry for space flight applications, create schematics and PCB layouts using commercial software (Altium), ability to create SPICE circuit simulations, ability to program FPGA and microprocessors, and have a history of designing printed circuit boards in a professional environment. Major Responsibilities Design and develop high-reliability electronic systems for spaceflight applications Own the full product lifecycle: concept, design, simulation, prototyping, testing, and production Perform circuit design, analysis, and validation for instrumentation and sensor systems Generate schematics and PCB layouts using Altium Designer Conduct SPICE simulations for circuit performance and reliability validation Develop and integrate digital circuitry, FPGA, and microprocessor-based systems Support fabrication, assembly, and environmental testing of hardware Execute verification & validation (V&V) to ensure performance under extreme space conditions Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical, software, and systems engineering teams Pay for this role is between $35-70/hr We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day.
