We´re looking for an electonics Engineer to join the Electronic Development Area. This area is responsible for the design of electronic devices and products for the space segment, ground segment, and support tools (GSE), with a strong focus on radio systems. He or she will be responsible for the design and verification of new digital electronics products, particularly those focused on communications systems based on SDR and/or onboard computers. Additionally, the candidate will provide technical analyses to evaluate the performance of communication systems and develop new concepts and architectures. Main responsabilities:

- Requirements analysis
- Performing trade-offs and studies necessary to provide the best solution to the proposed problem
- Electronic design based on microcontrollers, FPGAs, or SoCs
- Electronic design of Power Distribution Networks (PDN) based on a power budget
- Electronic design of communication interfaces including drivers: CAN, UART, I²C, SPI, LVDS, etc.
- Electronic design with radio transceivers (ADC/DAC converters)
- PCB design: translating schematic designs into a manufacturable layout (PCBA)
- Design of support elements for testing (EGSEs), including cable harness definition
- Collaboration with the mechanical team for the development of shielding or metallic enclosures for the device
- Development and description of verification and test plans
- Functional and electrical verification of developed devices
- Electrical and interface testing in the laboratory
- Maintenance of designs and products




- Support to the Systems Engineering team in identifying new communication concepts and architectures
- Collaboration with software and FPGA teams for electronic design and test development
- Support to the production team for verification of stable products
- Preparation of technical documentation: ICDs, datasheets, etc.
- Design of interface boards
- Evaluation and implementation of customized modifications to existing Alén Space products
- Technical support to the sales team, including meetings with clients during decision-making phases
- Technical support to the post-sales team, including client meetings

Requirements:

- The applicant must be fluent in English.
- Experience in communications and electronic systems.
- Experience using electronic design tools such as Altium Designer.
- Knowledge of software-defined radio (SDR) systems.
- Experience in designing high-speed and controlled-impedance lines.
- Proficiency in the operation and maintenance of digital electronics instrumentation equipment.
- Basic knowledge of RF electronics.
- Design of high-density PCBs (≥ 4 layers).

Valuable knowledge:

- Knowledge of ECSS standards and/or other international quality standards (e.g., ITU).
- Electrical circuit simulation.
- Signal integrity simulation and testing.
- Experience in electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing.
- Theoretical understanding of space communications concepts.
- Experience in DDR memory routing.
- Experience in routing high-speed lines and buses (Ethernet, USB, LVDS).
