Description

  • Own the development of next-generation in-space compute and storage capability for the Interplanetary Program.
  • Deliver space-ready compute units for flight spacecraft and ground-based hardware twins for hardware-in-the-loop testing.
  • Collaborate with science teams to balance compute, memory, and storage needs against spacecraft constraints such as power, thermal, EMI, and mechanical limits.
  • Work closely with software teams to bring up core software infrastructure on the spacecraft and ground systems.
  • Iterate with software teams to ensure the full compute system operates as intended across all environments.
  • Lead hands-on development campaigns to evaluate technologies, de-risk interfaces, and validate performance before system integration.
  • Work across internal and external teams to turn concepts into hardware and flight-ready systems.
  • Support rapid prototyping, early testing, and continuous learning in a fast-paced iterative environment.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field.
  • 7+ years of experience designing and delivering digital, compute-centric electronic systems.
  • Proven experience leading the design and delivery of complex electrical systems, including RF and compute-heavy projects.
  • Hands-on experience working in challenging thermal and electromechanical environments.
  • Strong understanding of systems engineering, interface management, and risk management principles for complex programs.
  • Excellent technical communication, problem-solving, and cross-disciplinary collaboration skills.
  • Direct architecture or electrical engineering design experience with non-volatile storage, mobile compute, and/or server-class computing is a plus.
  • Experience with compute and storage survivability in space and radiation environments is a plus.

Benefits

  • Competitive salary with equity.
  • Generous PTO and sick leave policy.
  • Parental leave.
  • Annual learning and development stipend.
  • Transparent compensation practices with leveling based on interview evaluation.
  • Hiring range of $179,000 to $241,000 USD, with Senior Engineer range of $166,500 to $203,500 USD and Staff Engineer range of $197,000 to $241,000 USD.
