The Role

We are looking for a Senior Electromechanical Engineer to own electrical, optical and sensing harness/interconnect products for a space-based antenna application. This is a hands‑on role for someone who enjoys developing unique solutions to unique problems — from preliminary system design and component selection to qualification, integration & flight.

Responsibilities
  • Own the design and selection of the spacecraft's wiring harness — electrical wiring, optical fiber, connectors, and interconnects.
  • Own antenna specific sensors and their integration, routing, and signal interfaces.
  • Define harness and connector requirements and drive component selection and supplier evaluation.
  • Take harness, connectors, and fiber through qualification for the flight environment.
  • Develop routing, strain‑relief, and integration approaches compatible with a spacecraft structure.
  • Create harness drawings, wire lists, and interface documentation.
  • Support assembly, integration, and test, and resolve harness‑related anomalies throughout the entire product lifecycle.
