San Francisco, California, United States Astranis Full time
Astranis: Connecting the World through Space Technology

Astranis is a pioneering company that aims to bridge the digital divide by connecting the four billion people worldwide who currently lack internet access. We're doing this by building the next generation of smaller, more cost-effective spacecraft to bring the world online.


As a team, we've launched two satellites into orbit, signed ten commercial deals worth over $1 billion in revenue, raised over $500 million from top global investors, and recruited a team of over 300 world-class engineers. We all work out of our (legendary) San Francisco office, which was once used to build ships during the World Wars.


Our satellites, which operate from geostationary orbit (GEO), weigh only 400 kg and utilize a proprietary software-defined radio payload. Each satellite can connect over two million people, and we're very excited for the impact we'll soon have in the Philippines, Peru, Mexico, and more.


As an Associate Engineer, you will have an amazing opportunity to work on hard problems. We pride ourselves on giving everyone at Astranis a chance to do meaningful work on challenging projects, and our Associate Engineers work on projects that are of equal importance and difficulty to the projects we give our full-time employees.


Key Responsibilities:
  • Work on an interdisciplinary team to design, build, and test satellite hardware and software.
  • Develop assembly and integration test plans and procedures based on concepts and designs.
  • Learn to use various pieces of test equipment and instruments to successfully execute test plans.
  • Coordinate assembly, integration, and environmental test efforts.

Requirements:
  • Pursuing a four-year degree in Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering (or equivalent technical degree).
  • A passion for hardware development, including working in a fast-paced environment and hands-on design and development.
  • Ability to handle multiple tasks and prioritize.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • Familiarity with spacecraft systems and operation.
  • Must be onsite 5 days a week.

Bonus:
  • Hands-on experience in designing, building, and testing.
  • Experience writing Python code to interface with test equipment, process large datasets, and visualize data.
  • Experience in CAD.
  • Direct electrical or mechanical design experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to debug hardware and software problems under time pressure.

The base pay for this position is $29.00 per hour. U.S. Citizenship, Lawful Permanent Residency, or Refugee/Asylee Status Required.


Astranis is an equal opportunity employer and welcomes applications from diverse candidates. We believe in a diverse and inclusive workplace, and we encourage all people to join our team and bring their unique perspective to help make us stronger.
