Join our team of innovators and get a chance to work alongside a team of talented, curious people that are passionate about designing and deploying solutions that are accelerating humanity’s expansion into space.

Our team in Marlborough, MA has been actively accelerating humanity’s expansion into space for multiple decades. During that time, our innovative team has been designing and manufacturing mission-critical, high reliability optical sensors for satellites providing guidance, navigation, situational awareness, and control capabilities.

Redwire Space Components, LLC hasa current opportunity for a FPGA/Hardware Engineer
locatedat our facility in Marlborough, MA. In this role you will be collaborating with members of the engineering and product management teams to develop space-qualified hardware PCBs and FPGA designs for our flight cameras, navigational sensor products, and other expanded product lines.

The development includescircuitdesign, analysis, test, qualification, design documents,and supporting the transition of products from R&D to manufacturing.

• Learn applicable product technology, architecture, and design requirements for space-basedsensorsystems
• Collaborate with the larger product team to effectively produceoptimalhardwareand FPGAdesignsfor the space environment
• Analyze and document design specifications, design verification plans and reports,parts stress analysis,worst-case analysisincludingradiation effects,and failure modes and effects analysis
• Work with the software team to bring up and debug PCB, FPGA, and system-level designs.
  
  Maintain hardware throughout the development cycle
• Design andsupportbuildofany special test equipment needed including interface adapters, cables, and associated commercial test support equipment
• Conduct design verification stress testing tovalidateanalysis and design margins.
  
  Evaluate any noncompliance’s and develop solutions to bring the product into compliance
• Develop novel system design approaches to mitigate radiation hazards toimproved sensor availabilityorextend mission life
• Support product release cycles, including manufacturing and test

• Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineeringor related field withfive or more years of relevant design experience. MSEE is a plus
• FPGAdevelopment experience, including architecting RTL designs,writing and debugging VHDL/Verilog, performing timing closure, leading FPGAbring up, and guidingsystem levelintegration on new hardware platforms
• Proficiency with professional engineering tools including Altium or similar PCB design suites, Git, SPICE tools, and signal‑integrity analysis
• Experience with
  
  SoC basedarchitectures and tool chains (e.g., Xilinx Zynq / Vivado), including synthesis, constraints, simulation, and hardware softwareinteraction
• Experience in analog circuit design, including amplifiers, filters, ADC/DAC interfaces, power sequencing, andmixed-signalconsiderations
• Hands-on lab experience building prototypes, debugging complex hardware, and using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power supplies, and other instrumentation in both manual and automated test setups
• Experience leading designs through the full hardware development lifecycle: requirements, architecture, design, implementation, verification, documentation, and manufacturing release
• Ability to obtain a US Government DoD Security Clearance
• Some limited travel may be required

• Experiencementoringjunior engineers, contribute to design reviews, and provide technical leadership across cross-functional teams
• Excellent oral and written communication skills for leading discussions, presenting technical rationale, and producing clear design documentation
• Proficient with Microsoft Office applications, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, for documentation, analysis, and presentation of engineering work
• Experience with engineering analysis such as worst‑case analysis, reliability/derating, parts stress, and thermal analysis
• Experience with isolated and non‑isolated DC/DC power conversion, current/voltage…
