Designs small-satellite PCBs from schematics to manufacturing release, balancing signal integrity, thermal and structural constraints, with test findings feeding design rules and reviews.
About this role
This engineering role connects specialist hardware and software work with the requirements of an entire satellite. Responsibilities depend on the candidate’s technical background and may span control, positioning, communications, optics, reliability, and system integration.
Work can include satellite-wide requirements and interface management, state estimation, orbit and link-budget calculations, GNSS processing, RF and optical communications, imaging systems, FMEA, and qualification testing. Engineers evaluate how subsystem decisions affect the mission and use analysis, tests, and in-orbit results to improve subsequent designs.
The common prerequisites are at least three years of experience in a relevant technical specialty and quantitative analysis or verification experience. The role also lists system design, cross-disciplinary coordination, and advanced Japanese technical discussion and writing, and applicants need not meet every condition. Technical English is preferred.
