About the role
We are looking for a Senior Avionics Engineer with 6+ years of experience to join our team and take ownership of avionics subsystems from end to end. You will be a key player in designing, testing, and producing the electronic systems for Outpost’s Earth return vehicles, collaborating closely with engineers across multiple domains. This is a crucial role for developing the hardware that will guide our spacecraft, bridging the gap between our GNC, software, and aerodynamics teams.
Responsibilities
- Develop electrical architectures, design circuits, capture schematics, and lay out PCBAs for our spacecraft.
- Design custom electrical harnesses and oversee their construction.
- Develop and support electrical ground equipment and test hardware, including Hardware-in-the-Loop (HITL) and FlatSat setups.
- Drive root-cause analysis and troubleshooting of electronics-related issues in spacecraft and ground systems.
- Collaborate with GNC, software, and aerodynamics engineers to integrate hardware, firmware, and software components.
