Description

  • Own the electrical architecture for imaging payloads, including system partitioning and power, sensor, data, and interface electronics tradeoffs.
  • Lead the design, layout, bring-up, and qualification of PCBAs for EO/IR sensor systems.
  • Translate sensor and system performance models into electrical requirements and challenge non-essential requirements.
  • Drive rapid prototype-build-test cycles and iterate on real hardware toward flight-ready designs.
  • Design electronics for the space environment and own environmental analysis and testing, including TVAC, vibe, and EMI/EMC.
  • Apply design for manufacturability and assembly principles from the first schematic through low-rate production.
  • Lead board bring-up, lab integration, and troubleshooting during environmental and integration testing.
  • Partner with firmware, optics, mechanical, systems, and program teams to resolve integration issues quickly.
  • Mentor other electrical engineers and serve as a technical anchor for electronics decisions and design reviews.
  • Document architectures, designs, analyses, and test results to support flight readiness and program reviews.

Requirements

  • 8+ years of electrical engineering experience spanning system-level architecture, electronics design, and hands-on test.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
  • Demonstrated ownership of electronics architecture for a complex electromechanical or sensor system.
  • Strong analog, digital, mixed-signal, and power electronics design experience.
  • Deep schematic capture and PCB layout proficiency.
  • Proven ability to take hardware from architecture through bring-up, integration, and qualification.
  • Experience delivering hardware on aggressive timelines and in rapid, iterative design cycles.
  • Excellent engineering judgment and problem-solving ability under schedule pressure and incomplete information.
  • Ability to collaborate effectively across a multidisciplinary engineering team.
  • Eligibility to obtain and maintain an active U.S. Secret security clearance.
  • Direct experience designing electronics for space, especially New Space or commercial-cadence programs that flew hardware in a year or less.
  • Familiarity with radiation effects, rad-hard and rad-tolerant part selection, COTS-for-space approaches, TVAC, vibration, and EMI/EMC.
  • Experience with EO/IR, RF, optical, or other sensor and communication systems.
  • Experience designing for manufacturability and assembly and transitioning designs toward low-rate production.
  • Familiarity with MATLAB, Python, or C++.
  • Understanding of system integration processes and workflows in aerospace or defense environments.
  • Experience mentoring engineers and leading design reviews.

Benefits

  • US salary range of $126,000 to $167,000 USD.
  • Highly competitive equity grants included in the majority of full-time offers.
  • Top-tier benefits for full-time employees.
  • Comprehensive benefits package available at little to no cost to employees.
  • Health support as part of Anduril’s employee benefits package.
  • Recovery support as part of Anduril’s employee benefits package.
