ABOUT THE ROLE
Join a small team building satellite and space-based computing systems as its first dedicated electrical and computer engineer. You will take ownership of a satellite flight computer and contribute to the electronics behind orbital AI compute.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Design and own the flight computer for a satellite mission, with this as the primary focus during your first 90 days.
- Build prototypes, bring up hardware, and debug systems hands-on in the Los Angeles lab alongside engineering leadership.
- Work with manufacturing partners on electronics and compute systems for a full-scale satellite.
- Evaluate high-speed interconnects, including NVLink and SerDes, as well as photonics and optical interconnect options.
- Write firmware and platform software for the payload as needed.
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- 0 to 15 years of electrical or computer engineering experience, including at least one year in a high-growth startup or comparable 0-to-1 environment.
- Experience designing custom boards or system boards end to end, including schematics, high-speed PCB layout, bring-up, and debugging.
- Knowledge of high-speed digital design and signal- and power-integrity fundamentals.
- A degree in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience.
- Experience with GPUs, accelerators, SoCs, or large ASICs is valuable, as is familiarity with photonics, silicon photonics, optical interconnects, networking, or space and radiation-hardened hardware.
- Experience working with contract manufacturers or original design manufacturers is helpful. Startup experience is expected, including for candidates with aerospace prime contractor or government backgrounds.
- Proficiency with relevant tools and technologies such as schematic capture, embedded C/C++, Linux, and Python.
