Electronics Engineer
Description
An exciting new opportunity for an experienced electronics engineer to work in a dynamic and growing startup.
If you are passionate about spacecraft technology, this role will allow you the opportunity to design, develop, build and eventually send into outer space satellite sensors, space-grade PCBs and FPGAs. If you want to feel empowered to create new concepts and ideas and see them flourish from concept to orbit, Space Talos is the place for you.
This role involves developing an FPGA firmware that will measure errors from single events. You will be working with the rest of the team to understand the requirements for testing and objectives of the testing campaign. In the mid-term, you will grow in your role and will be working with the team to understand and suggest ways to integrate the radiation shield developed with an existing FPGA chip or board. In the long term, you will be involved in the design, development and testing in orbit of a true commercial FPGA with Space Talos proprietary shielding. During your time in the company, you will be learning about space radiation and the environment, the challenges on electronics and you will be doing research on existing mitigation methods on memory and processors, rad-hard systems, their advantages and shortcomings.
We are looking for a proactive, independent, hands-on engineer who is keen on taking ownership of projects and is proud of his/her work. The ability to interact comfortably within a dynamic startup team environment is essential.
