Original job description

Who are we?

Longshot Space Technologies is at the cutting edge of low-cost space access and hypersonics. We are developing a novel space launch system that accelerates mass over a long distance. Using our technology, we plan to provide affordable launch services for satellites, cargo, and future space infrastructure. Our mission is to enable a future where humans can reach for the stars.

Position Overview We are hiring a Staff Electrical Engineer to own electrical engineering across Longshot, including the people, the architecture and the hardware. You will provide leadership and expertise in defining system architecture and electronics platforms for high-voltage pulsed ignition, firing and sequencing control, instrumentation and data acquisition, safety interlocks, vehicle avionics and power, and test site power. Deliverables include circuit card assemblies (CCAs), FPGA and microprocessor designs, harnesses, and the test procedures and scripts that verify them. The electrical team is small and works across every program. You will set its technical direction, grow it, and be the accountable owner for electrical design at design reviews and test readiness. This is a hands-on lead role: you will design and review schematics, be in the bunker on test day, and sign your name to what goes on the launcher.

Job Details

Role Type: Full-time
Compensation: $180,000 to $220,000 per year
Location: Alameda, CA Onsite with 25%-30% travel for campaigns

Key Responsibilities

Architecture and design

Own the electrical architecture for gun systems and test vehicles: HV pulsed-power ignition, control and sequencing, instrumentation, interlocks and abort chains, power distribution and grounding.
Derive and document engineering requirements, specifications and interface definition drawings for electrical assemblies.
Define and control interfaces with mechanical, software, test and facilities teams.
Define requirements for, and guide the design and implementation of, FPGAs, microcontrollers and embedded electronics for control and test systems.
Plan CCA, chassis, rack and harness implementations, and oversee build and delivery to users and stakeholders.
Review design analyses for accuracy and completeness and coordinate engineers into an integrated design.
Make build/buy calls and own the electrical portion of the BOM, schedule and budget.

Team leadership

Lead, mentor and hire electrical engineers and technicians.
Set design standards, review practices and documentation expectations, and delegate effectively.
Lead team communication on technical issues and drive problem resolution and root cause on electrical anomalies.

Test, verification and documentation

Develop test and verification plans from requirements.
Plan and execute qualification and acceptance testing of electrical hardware.
Produce comprehensive documentation: test procedures, results, training guides and issue reports.

Safety and reviews

Drive design for safety in high-energy systems: energy storage, safe/arm, fault tolerance, isolation, discharge and lockout/tagout.
Act as electrical authority on hazard analyses.
Act as electrical authority at design reviews (PDR/CDR/TRR), and write and defend the electrical sections of design, interface and safety documentation.
Participate in development of contract technical documentation for government-funded programs.
Provide technical insight and oversight of subcontracts and key suppliers.

Required Qualifications

BS in Electrical Engineering with 6+ years of related work experience, MS in a similar discipline with 4+ years, or PhD with 3+ years
Strong background in design and/or analysis of analog, digital and power circuits, in one or more of pulsed power / high-voltage systems, ignition or initiation systems, test-stand control and instrumentation, or flight avionics and power
Experience across the full design cycle from requirements through schematic, layout review, harness, build, test and field support
Command of high-energy safety practice: energy storage hazards, interlocks, grounding and shielding, EMI in noisy high-current environments
Proven ability as a team leader to deliver project results and manage performance standards, budgets and schedules
Flexible and accountable: meets commitments and produces quality products within budget through effective prioritization
Experience with configuration management tools (e.g., Git, Jira)
Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
Exceptional interpersonal skills, working effectively with internal and external program leadership and with every level of the team, from technicians to customers
Comfort writing for review boards and customers, making a design decision legible to someone who was not in the room
Desire to be hands-on, on-site and at the test stand

Preferred Qualifications

Capacitor-bank, high-current switch or exploding-bridgewire experience
FPGA-based embedded electronics or firmware-hardware co-design
Power electronics and power-bus interfaces (battery, capacitor bank, high-current DC)
High-speed DAQ: piezoelectric pressure, strain, accelerometers, high-speed video triggering; NI, Dewesoft or similar
Familiarity with flight or defense hardware design flow, EEE parts control, and packaging/cabling requirements
Experience supporting hardware integration and test, engineering and qualification units, and delivery into system-level test campaigns
Aerospace or defense program experience; familiarity with MIL-STD-461/464/1576 or range safety requirements
Hazardous-test or energetic-materials environment experience
Prior experience as a technical lead or subject-matter expert
Comfort working in a fast-paced, mission-focused environment and managing multiple priorities across diverse engineering teams
Active U.S. security clearance or eligibility to obtain one
