Job Description

The Engineering, Science and Analysis (ESA) Strategic Capabilities Unit comprises the technical talent and organizational leadership that enables the successful delivery of high-impact discriminating technologies for our customers’ missions. Our collaborative, cross-functional teams are committed to innovation, integrity, continual learning and strong execution.


What You’ll Do:
  • Design hardware for system and detailed circuit design for space-based, high-reliability electronic systems including:
    • Modeling and simulation.
    • Analysis (worst case circuit analysis, parts stress analysis, reliability, signal integrity, risk mitigation).
    • Digital designs with architectures utilizing FPGAs, microprocessors, soft-core processors, digital filters, image processing algorithms, and high speed SERDES communication interfaces/protocols like XAUI, sRIO, PCIe, and SpaceWire for communication and data processing for a variety of sensors – focal planes, detectors, gimbals, phased arrays.
    • Analog designs with architectures focusing on general analog, mixed signal, and power supply electronic design.
    • Design and implement test fixtures including test plans for both chip-level and board level environments and create reusable circuits that can be utilized across multiple projects.
    • Work with Parts Engineers to select and approve EEE parts to meet program requirements.
    • Lead or support anomaly debug, determination of root cause, and corrective actions.
