Job Description

Who We Are:

We're building the future of space access by designing and delivering high-performance satellite platforms that scale from early demonstration missions to full constellations. Our integrated bus-and-payload approach gives customers a faster, more reliable path from concept to orbit. If you're passionate about precision engineering and want your work to fly (literally), we'd love to meet you.

Who You Are:

As an Electrical Engineer at Eclipse Space Technologies Corporation, you’ll own the architecture, design, and delivery of critical electronics that enable communication and coordination between all satellite subsystems - including computing, networking, and ADCS. You will lead efforts across the full hardware development lifecycle—from system-level design and schematic capture to PCB development, bring-up, and verification.

Your role will also involve deep engagement with cross-system requirements, component selection, and integration strategies to ensure robust, reliable performance. You’ll troubleshoot complex hardware issues, define test strategies, and guide designs through production, qualification, and flight readiness.

Beyond technical execution, you’ll play a key role in driving cross-functional alignment across disciplines—including mechanical, software, and systems engineering—to ensure your hardware supports and accelerates overall mission success.

What You'll Do:
  • Rapidly develop high-reliability electronics for satellites.
  • Drive system trades, requirements capture, component selection, analysis, schematic capture, PCB layout, prototyping, hardware bring-up, debugging, documentation, manufacturing, test, and on-orbit performance of complex electrical designs.
  • Support environmental and functional testing of subsystems (e.g., TVAC, vibe, etc.) to correlate models for all satellite mission environments.
  • Work closely with engineers from adjacent disciplines (mechanical, thermal, software, test engineering, supply chain, RF communications, EPS, etc.) to deliver tightly integrated, high-performance hardware.
  • Define and lead qualification and lifetime testing at the component, subsystem, and vehicle levels, ensuring performance and reliability across all phases of development.
  • Interface with suppliers and manufacturers to deliver production-ready hardware – some travel may be required.
What You Bring:

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 2+ years hands-on experience with full-cycle electronics hardware design and development of new hardware products, ideally for aerospace or other high-reliability environments.
  • Proven experience designing and implementing mixed-signal, high-speed digital circuit boards involving:
    • FPGAs, microcontrollers, DDR4/LPDDR4 memory
    • Multi-GHz SerDes (e.g., Ethernet, PCIe)
    • Power supplies (DC-DC converters, LDOs)
    • ADCs/DACs, op-amps, and precision analog components
    • I2C, SPI, UART, Ethernet, and GPIO interfaces
  • Ability to work cross-functionally in a fast-paced, iterative development environment
  • Proficiency in at least one schematic/layout tool (e.g., Altium, Xpedition, etc.).
  • Skilled in lab bring-up and debugging tools: oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power analyzers, etc.
  • S. person status required — U.S. citizen, national, lawful permanent resident, asylee, or refugee.

 

Nice to Have

  • Knowledge of radiation effects and degradation of electronic components in space environments.
  • Familiarity with spaceflight qualification standards (e.g., ECSS, NASA-STD, MIL-STD, etc.).
  • Working knowledge of Python and C/C++ for test automation or embedded bring-up.
What We Offer:

Salary Pay Range:

  • Engineer: $150k - $180k
  • Principal Engineer: $165k - $225k

 DOE + Qualifications

 

Why Join Us

  • Be part of a tight-knit team building actual spacecraft that launch and operate
  • Own power hardware that flies, from first schematic to orbit
  • Influence the design of a scalable satellite platform from the ground up
  • Competitive salary, meaningful equity, and full benefits

We look forward to meeting you.
