What they need
- As a Principal Electrical Design Engineer, you will design and validate the digital and mixed-signal electronics that support Array’s radar payloads and satellite platforms
- Your work will include high-speed digital interfaces, precision clocking and timing distribution, power regulation and control circuits, system monitoring and telemetry hardware, and fault-tolerant satellite avionics
- You will take hardware through design, prototyping, bring-up, and qualification, working closely with RF, antenna, mechanical, and systems engineers
- The hardware you develop will directly affect system performance, power efficiency, stability, and overall reliability on orbit
- Develop advanced electronic platforms, from architecture to manufacturing
- Work closely with software, firmware, RF, antenna, digital, and mechanical design engineers to design and validate state-of-the-art spacecraft electronics
- Create requirements, perform system trades, select components, capture schematics, design complex electronic assemblies and manage manufacturing
- Lead prototyping, hardware bring-up, debug, manufacturing, and test campaigns
- Rapidly iterate on and improve electronic designs based on laboratory, environmental and on-orbit testing
- Provide technical leadership through design reviews, risk reduction planning, and mentorship of early-career engineers- Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
- B.S. in Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 15+ years of relevant experience
- Experience in electronics design, bring-up, and test
- Excellent teamwork and communication skills
- High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability
- Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
- Master’s degree in electrical engineering, or a related field
- Hands-on experience with full-life cycle hardware development (concept to production) in consumer electronics, power electronics, communications, automotive, aerospace, and/or robotics
- Background in high-speed board design, simulation, and validation techniques including PCB stack-up, fabrication considerations, layout constraints, component selection, and measurement
- Background in electromagnetic theory and RF fundamentals such as S-parameters, transmission lines, and broadband impedance matching
- Hands-on experience designing high-performance platforms including compute (SoCs, FPGAs, MCUs), storage (DDR, SSDs), high-speed interfaces (PCIe, SPI, JESD204B), RF components (PAs, LNAs, switches)
- Proficiency with schematic capture and design using CAD tools such as Altium Designer (preferred); experience with Allegro and/or OrCAD is a plus
- Experience with EMC requirements and EMI mitigation techniques
- Experience with signal and power integrity simulation and measurement
- Experience with analysis and simulation tools such as LTspice, ADS, and/or Microwave Office
- Experience with EM and thermal simulation of printed circuit boards
- Experience with data analysis and programming in MATLAB or Python
- Hands-on experience with test equipment such as oscilloscopes and network analyzers- We will conduct three interviews via Zoom; the typical process takes around 3-5 weeks to complete from start to finish
