We're looking for a hands-on Hardware Engineer who thrives in the lab and enjoys solving problems where failure isn't an option.

This is an opportunity to work on advanced satellite communication hardware built around custom silicon, high-speed digital architectures, and complex phased-array systems. You'll be responsible for transforming newly manufactured boards into flight-ready hardware through bring-up, validation, root-cause analysis, and relentless debugging.

If you're the engineer who gets called when a board won't boot, a high-speed link won't train, or a power rail doesn't behave as expected, we want to talk to you.

What You'll OwnLead first-time bring-up of complex satellite electronics and high-performance digital hardware.Power-on, debug, and validate newly fabricated boards.Investigate and resolve electrical, signal integrity, power integrity, and system-level issues.Execute validation plans covering functionality, performance, reliability, and high-speed interfaces.Drive hardware improvements by partnering directly with design engineers on future revisions.Support integration and test activities across multidisciplinary engineering teams.Deliver thoroughly validated hardware ready for downstream system and antenna testing.Influence next-generation designs through hands-on engineering feedback.The Hardware

You'll work with:

Dense multilayer PCB designsCustom ASIC-based platformsHigh-speed serial interfacesAdvanced communication systemsLarge-scale phased-array electronicsMulti-gigabit networking architecturesMission-critical hardware operating in demanding environmentsWhat We're Looking For
