Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.
OUR MISSION
True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors - enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.
OUR VALUES
YOUR MISSION
As a member of our Avionics & Electrical Engineering CO-OP Program, you will gain hands-on experience contributing to the design, testing, and documentation of mission-critical spacecraft avionics and electrical systems. This role focuses on hardware documentation, board bring-up testing, and electrical system verification. CO-OP responsibilities may include:
Electrical Engineering Documentation:
Create and maintain comprehensive electrical engineering documentation including schematics, interface control documents (ICDs), component specifications, test procedures, and design rationale reports for avionics subsystems.
Board Bring-Up Testing and Verification:
Support hardware bring-up activities for avionics flight boards and ground support electronics, including power sequencing verification, signal integrity testing, functional validation, and debugging of prototype PCBAs using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and multimeters.
Avionics System Integration and Test Support:
Assist in the integration and testing of avionics subsystems including flight computers, power distribution units, communication systems, and sensor interfaces. Support functional testing, interface verification, and anomaly resolution during spacecraft integration.
Electrical Harnessing and Interface Design:
Collaborate with electrical and mechanical teams to define wiring harness designs, connector pinouts, and electrical interface specifications for power and data distribution across spacecraft subsystems. Support harness routing analysis and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) considerations.
Environmental Test Planning and Execution:
Develop test procedures and support execution of environmental qualification tests for avionics hardware including thermal vacuum (TVAC), vibration, shock, and electromagnetic interference/compatibility (EMI/EMC) testing. Collect test data, document results, and support post-test analysis and failure investigation.
PCB Design Review and Analysis:
Participate in PCB design reviews for avionics boards, reviewing layout for signal integrity, power integrity, thermal management, and design for manufacturing (DFM). Support component selection, worst-case circuit analysis, and derating analysis to ensure mission reliability.
