  • Support your product through production and spaceflight.
  • Collaborate closely with internal and external stakeholders to integrate your designs into the spacecraft system.
  • Act as a technical leader and subject-matter expert, helping to teach, grow, and mentor others in the team.
Requirements:
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer science, computer engineering, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of experience with full-cycle development of mixed-signal PCBAs for RF applications using microprocessors, FPGAs, multi-GHz SerDes, DRAM, Ethernet, SPI, ADCs, operational amplifiers, and power supplies.
  • 5+ years of experience with SDR hardware development, including high-speed RF data converters, clock trees, and data converter interfaces.
  • Experience with mixed-signal performance characterization, validation, and debugging, including error vector magnitude EVM testing, spur analysis, electromagnetic interference and compliance EMI/EMC.
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced and high-velocity start-up atmosphere.
Compensation and Benefits:
  • $140,000 - $200,000 base salary range.
