Role: Senior Electronics Engineer Reports to: Engineering Manager, Space Systems Hybrid The Mission of the Electronics Engineer We're looking for a Senior Electronics Engineer to join our New Payload Team and help build the next generation of satellite hardware. In this role, you'll design, test, and maintain the electronic systems that power and control our payloads and avionics subsystems. You'll contribute across the entire product lifecycle, from early concepts and prototypes through integration, testing, and on-orbit performance.
This role is perfect for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, collaborating with experts across multiple disciplines, and having real ownership over hardware that flies in space. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE's world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world's largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy - day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits.
As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE's near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. The company has more than 900 employees, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation. Design board-level electronic systems for satellite units and RF boards, with a strong focus on power and control circuits using microcontrollers.
Perform rigorous testing and validation of the electronics you design, ensuring functionality, reliability, and compliance with mission requirements. Create and maintain clear documentation, including schematics, PCB layouts, test plans, and procedures. Work closely with RF engineers, mechanical engineers, software developers, and other specialists to ensure seamless integration.
Contribute to continuous improvement of design practices, test coverage, and in-orbit performance monitoring. 7-10+ years of hands-on experience in electronics engineering, with a strong specialization in analog electronics design. ~ BSc/MSc in Electronic Engineering or related field. ~ Proven track record designing low-noise power supplies, timing circuits, and analog signal chains at a senior/expert level. ~ Demonstrated ability to lead complex analog design efforts and mentor junior engineers. Hands-on experience with space hardware or environmental testing (vibration, thermal, radiation). Solid understanding of RF concepts and the interactions between digital, analog, and RF circuitry.
Knowledge of root-cause analysis techniques for complex hardware issues.
