About the role

About the Role

Join a small engineering team at a defense and space technology startup as its first dedicated electrical and computer engineer. You will prepare a satellite flight computer for launch and contribute to the electronics and GPU compute systems that support in-orbit AI inference.

What You'll Do

  • Design and own the satellite flight computer, with initial focus on making it flight-ready.
  • Build, bring up, and debug hardware hands-on in the Los Angeles lab.
  • Work with manufacturing partners to design electronics and compute systems for a full-scale satellite.
  • Help select high-speed interconnects, including NVLink and SerDes, and evaluate photonics and optical interconnects.
  • Write firmware and platform software for the payload as needed.

What We're Looking For

  • Electrical or computer engineering degree, or equivalent experience, with 0 to 15 years of relevant engineering experience.
  • At least one year of experience in a high-growth, venture-backed startup or comparable zero-to-one environment.
  • End-to-end custom board or system-board design experience, including schematics, high-speed PCB layout, hardware bring-up, and debugging.
  • Knowledge of high-speed digital design and signal and power integrity fundamentals.
  • Experience with GPUs, accelerators, SoCs, or large ASICs is valuable.
  • Exposure to photonics, optical interconnects, networking, contract manufacturers, or ODMs is beneficial.
  • Space, satellite, or radiation-hardened hardware experience is beneficial, as is a background combining startup work with aerospace or government contracting.
  • Eligible candidates must be U.S. citizens or Green Card holders.

Compensation & Benefits

Base salary range: $120,000 to $220,000 annually. Visa sponsorship is not available.
