Senior Hardware Electrical Engineer

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

We are seeking a Senior Hardware Electrical Engineer to own the design and development of electrical systems and PCBAs for mass-produced consumer devices. You will design complex mixed-signal circuits optimized for tight spaces, high-density layouts, low power consumption, and thermal efficiency. This role requires close collaboration with industrial designers, mechanical engineers, RF specialists, and battery teams.

• Own complete PCBA and electrical system development from architecture through mass production.
• Design schematic capture and high-density PCB layouts using Altium Designer, optimizing minimal space and thermal efficiency.
• Develop power architecture, conduct power analysis, and optimize low-power consumption in resource-constrained devices.
• Perform circuit analysis including signal integrity, EMI/EMC, and thermal simulation using SPICE and CAD tools.
• Select and evaluate components for performance, power efficiency, reliability, and cost-effective mass production.
• Develop test strategies and execute design verification, qualification, and production testing.
• Lead design reviews and collaborate with product, mechanical, industrial design, RF, and battery teams on system integration.
• Hands-on debugging of PCBA signals, power, bring-up, and other issues with feedback into design iterations.
• Support manufacturing for cost optimization, yield improvement, and efficient mass production.

• Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, Computer Engineering, Physics, or related field; or equivalent practical experience
• 3+ years of experience designing consumer electronics products
• Hands-on experience with PCB design, schematic capture, and board bring-up in Altium Designer
• Strong expertise in power management, low-power design, and thermal analysis
• Experience with circuit simulation (SPICE) and mixed-signal circuit design (analog and digital)
• Proficiency with electrical test equipment and test planning for product validation
• Experience working with industrial designers and mechanical engineers on form factor integration

• Experience with low-power and battery-powered mobile device design
• Experience with multiple PCB technologies (rigid, flex, rigid flex)
• Experience with RF circuit design and antenna integration
• Experience with IoT, wearables, phones, or compact consumer electronics
• Experience bringing consumer products to mass production
