Senior Electronics Engineer

The role

You will design and own embedded electronics for spacecraft to sense, decide, and act in orbit. You will work through the complete hardware lifecycle from schematics to on-orbit support.

What you will do

• Design and develop embedded electronics hardware using Altium Designer and/or Mentor Graphics PADS.
• Design digital control and interface circuitry around microcontrollers and/or FPGAs.
• Own the complete hardware lifecycle from development and testing to handover and troubleshooting.
• Work with firmware, mechanical, and systems engineers to define interfaces and verification test cases.
• Take ownership of electronics verification testing and documentation.
• Support on-orbit troubleshooting for developed hardware.

Required qualifications

• Master’s or Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, physics, or another relevant discipline.
• 5+ years developing electronics (schematic and layout) using Altium Designer and/or Mentor Graphics PADS.
• Strong experience in digital and embedded control electronics, including microcontroller/FPGA interfacing (ADC, PWM, GPIO), sensor and actuator interfaces, and protection circuitry.
• Experience designing serial communication hardware (e.g. I2C, SPI, UART, RS485, CAN).
• Working knowledge of high-speed and low-speed parallel interfaces relevant to embedded systems (e.g. JTAG, Ethernet, DDR/SRAM, Spacewire).

Nice to have

• Experience designing and testing high-reliability, safety-critical, and fault-tolerant systems.
• Experience with power electronics design supporting embedded control systems.
• Hardware debug experience with tools such as oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, protocol analyzers, and spectrum analyzers.
• Programming skills, including C/C++, Python, and MATLAB.
• Experience with revision control tools such as Git or SVN.
• Comfortable working in Linux.
• Familiarity with high-speed SERDES interfaces (e.g. JESD204a/b/c).
• Creative approach to problem solving.

Benefits

• Continuous professional development
• Training opportunities

Before you apply

• Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required)
