  6. Collaborate with system engineers, ground segment teams, and operations teams to integrate and validate spacecraft systems.
  7. Plan, prepare, and execute electrical subsystem and system-level verification tests, including writing test scripts and supporting environmental testing.
  8. Work with suppliers and procurement teams to define specifications and evaluate C&DH equipment.
Essential Skills:
  1. Bachelors or Masters degree in Electrical Engineering or a related discipline.
  2. 2+ years of commercial experience in electronic and/or system design for satellite Command & Data Handling (C&DH) systems.
  3. Experience working with industry-standard spacecraft communication protocols such as CCSDS, I2C, RS422, SpaceWire, and CAN.
  4. Understanding of C&DH system operations, avionics interfaces, and mission electronics.
  5. Hands-on experience in developing and executing test plans for spacecraft avionics.
  6. Strong knowledge of systems engineering and requirements management throughout the project lifecycle.
Desirable Skills:
  1. Experience with FPGA design using Verilog/VHDL.
  2. Proficiency in Python for test scripting.
  3. Hands-on experience handling and testing flight hardware in a cleanroom environment.
  4. Knowledge of GNSS systems and time synchronization for satellites.
  5. Understanding of radiation tolerance analysis and space-grade electronics for Low Earth Orbit (LEO).
  6. Familiarity with space sustainability initiatives, such as active debris removal and in-orbit servicing.
Whats on Offer?
  1. Competitive salary and benefits package.
  2. Work with a highly skilled, international team on cutting-edge space electronics.
  3. Hybrid working and flexible schedule options.
  4. Private healthcare, life insurance, and relocation support.
  5. Access to state-of-the-art office and cleanroom facilities.
