Electrical & Computer Engineer

Electrical & Computer Engineer | Start-upDesign the Computing Hardware That Powers the Next Generation of Space InfrastructureWe're partnering with an ambitious early-stage aerospace company developing advanced spacecraft that combine high-performance computing with next-generation satellite technology. Their mission is to build powerful orbital platforms capable of supporting entirely new capabilities in space, pushing the boundaries of both aerospace and computing.As one of the first hardware engineers on the team, you'll take ownership of the spacecraft's core compute hardware-designing high-performance electronics that must operate reliably in one of the most demanding environments imaginable.What You'll Be DoingArchitect and develop custom high-performance compute boards from concept through manufacturingDesign high-speed digital electronics including schematics, PCB layouts, board bring-up, and system validationDevelop GPU and accelerator interconnect architectures using modern high-speed communication technologiesPerform signal integrity, power integrity, and electrical performance analysisWork closely with mechanical and thermal engineers to optimise packaging, cooling, and power deliverySupport hardware through prototype builds, design reviews, manufacturing, qualification, and productionCoordinate with suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure robust, scalable hardware designsContribute to environmental testing including vibration, thermal vacuum, and qualification campaignsWhat We're Looking ForDegree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or equivalent practical experienceExperience designing complex custom electronic boards from architecture through bring-up and productionStrong background in high-speed digital design, PCB development, and modern compute hardwareExperience with high-speed interfaces, SerDes technologies, and advanced processor or accelerator platformsUnderstanding of signal integrity, power integrity, and hardware validation techniquesExperience working alongside contract manufacturers throughout design and productionAbility to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment with significant ownership and cross-functional collaborationNice to HaveExperience with AI accelerator, GPU server, or high-performance computing hardwareKnowledge of optical interconnects, silicon photonics, or advanced communication technologiesAerospace or space hardware experience, including environmental qualification or radiation-tolerant designExperience scaling hardware from prototype through manufacturingBackground in designing mission-critical electronics for demanding operating environmentsWhy Apply?Own a mission-critical piece of cutting-edge spacecraft hardware with genuine technical autonomyWork across electrical, thermal, and mechanical disciplines on highly integrated hardware systemsJoin a small, high-calibre engineering team where your work directly shapes the product roadmapBuild hardware that moves rapidly from concept to flight-ready systemsCompetitive salary, meaningful early-stage equity, comprehensive healthcare, unlimited PTO, and the opportunity to help build a groundbreaking space technology company.
