Staff FPGA Engineer (DSP

Overview

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.
