Experience with satellite programs is strongly desired, including exposure to the design, integration and test of satellite buses and a basic understanding of launch and flight operations of space vehicles.
Must be comfortable with designing, developing, and debugging small circruitry which performs sensing, digital data manipulation and electro-mechanical control.
Proficiency working with schematics and laboratory testing of electronics hardware and embedded systems (e.g., using logic analyzers and associated lab tools as debugging aids) is required.
Proficiency in C programming language is desired.
Experience with RF circuitry/principles is a plus.
Experience with FPGA development is strongly desired.
Experience with software development and the Linux operating system environment is desired.
