About the role

About the Role

Join a small defense and aerospace technology team as its first dedicated electrical and computer engineer. You will prepare a satellite flight computer for its upcoming mission and help develop GPU compute electronics for AI inference in orbit.

What You'll Do

  • Design and own the satellite flight computer, 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.

  • Collaborate with engineering leadership on board design and validation.

  • Work with manufacturing partners to develop electronics and compute systems for a full-scale satellite.

  • Evaluate high-speed interconnects, including NVLink and SerDes, as well as photonics and optical interconnects.

  • Write firmware and platform software for the payload as needed.

What We're Looking For

  • Degree in Electrical or Computer Engineering, or equivalent experience, with 0 to 15 years in the field.

  • At least one year of experience at a high-growth, venture-backed startup, or experience working in a zero-to-one environment.

  • End-to-end custom board or system-board design experience, including schematics, high-speed PCB layout, bring-up, and debugging.

  • Experience with high-speed digital design, signal integrity, and power integrity.

  • Familiarity with schematic capture, NVIDIA GPUs, accelerators, SoCs, ASICs, NVLink, SerDes, firmware, embedded C/C++, Linux, or Python.

  • Startup experience, including for candidates with aerospace prime contractor or government contractor backgrounds.

  • Space, satellite, or radiation-hardened hardware experience is useful, as is experience with photonics, optical interconnects, networking, or contract manufacturers and ODMs.

  • Must be authorized to work in the United States as a U.S. citizen or Green Card holder. Visa sponsorship is not available.
