The role in plain words
This role involves taking ownership of hardware design for next-generation space-flight electronics and satellite payload computing modules. The engineer will execute the full design lifecycle, including component selection, schematic architecture, and low-level board layout optimization. Additionally, the position requires architecting ultra-dense digital boards with high-speed FPGA arrays and multi-core processors, as well as performing system bring-up and validation in a lab environment.
- B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering from a recognized academic institution
- 6+ years of proven professional experience dedicated strictly to high-speed digital board design and hardware electronics development
- Deep practical experience designing, laying out, and testing complex hardware systems built around high-speed FPGA and CPU architectures
- Proven track record in High-Speed board design (25Gbps or above), managing signal attenuation, impedance matching, and high-frequency noise constraints
- Hands-on mastery of the full design cycle: component analysis, bill-of-materials (BOM) management, and detailed schematic capture
