Sterling, United States Trust Point Inc. Full time

Join TrustPoint and Build the World's First Commercial GPS System in Space

GPS is a ubiquitous global utility in modern society and knowing one's location is critical for government, commercial, and personal applications. Still, today's solutions for determining location are inaccurate, slow, unencrypted, and susceptible to jamming and spoofing. These shortcomings make heritage GPS and other government owned systems insufficient for tomorrow's safety-critical and high-precision applications, a problem TrustPoint intends to solve.

TrustPoint is developing a fully commercial next-generation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to provide significant performance, security and reliability improvements for GPS users. This includes better accuracy, quicker Time to First Fix, and anti-spoof and anti-jam capabilities. The improvements will support US Government position and timing service resiliency as well as enable next-generation commercial applications like drone delivery, self-driving cars, urban air mobility, and augmented reality. The over $100B annual GNSS Receiver market is ripe for disruption and TrustPoint intends to lead that revolution with our microsatellite based commercial infrastructure and innovative positioning and timing services.

The Position

With locations outside Washington DC and in Silicon Valley, TrustPoint is currently seeking a full time Senior Electrical Engineer to lead the design and development of complex, high-reliability printed circuit boards (PCBs) for space-bound systems. The Senior Electrical Engineer will play a crucial role in pushing the boundaries of what's possible in space technology. This position is perfect for someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is eager to drive innovation in a startup setting.

We'll Expect You To...

  • Design and develop advanced digital and RF PCBs specifically for space applications, ensuring robust performance under extreme conditions.
  • Lead mixed-signal and RF systems design, including link budget analysis and system optimization.
  • Manage the entire lifecycle of PCB development, from conceptual design to hardware implementation and testing.
  • Conduct rigorous testing and validation of new boards, troubleshooting issues and ensuring reliability and compliance with space standards.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to integrate PCBs with other system components.
  • Mentor junior engineers and contribute to the continuous improvement of design processes and methodologies.
You'll Need to Have...
  • B.S. or higher in Electrical Engineering or a related field
  • 7-10 years of relevant experience in electrical engineering, with at least 4 years focused on designing PCBs for space applications
  • Profound expertise in mixed-signal and RF system design
  • Proven experience in bringing up and testing new boards
  • Must be a U.S. Person as defined by the U.S. government, due to the nature of the work involving sensitive technology
  • Willingness to relocate to Northern Virginia
  • Ability to work effectively in a high-paced, startup environment
  • Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills
