Array Labs is building a distributed radar imaging constellation to power the first accurate, real-time 3D model of the world.
As an electrical engineer on the avionics team, you will have the unique opportunity to shape the design of the first autonomous formation flying distributed satellite constellation. In this critical role, you will be collaborating with flight software, spacecraft operations, mechanical, radar and radio frequency engineering teams to build cutting-edge hardware, rapidly moving all the way from clean-sheet designs into full operational deployment in space.
Responsibilities:
- System-level and module-level design in support of a ground-breaking multi-function distributed satellite constellations
- Work closely with flight software, GNC, mechanical and spacecraft operations teams to design and validate avionics electronics
- Develop circuit designs and build simulations to analyze system performance
- Design electronics for the orbital environments
- Create spacecraft hardware requirements, specifications, and test procedures
- Support flight software bring-up and validation by developing and implementing hardware test plans
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, or a related field.
- 4+ years of experience in electronics design, fabrication, and test
- Excellent teamwork and communication skills
- Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
