Electronics Engineer

We’re looking for an Electronics Engineer to join our New Payload Team and help build the next generation of satellite hardware. In this role, you’ll design, test, and maintain the electronic systems that power and control our payloads and avionics subsystems. You’ll contribute across the entire product lifecycle—from early concepts and prototypes through integration, testing, and on-orbit performance.

This role is perfect for someone who enjoys solving complex engineering challenges, collaborating with experts across multiple disciplines, and having real ownership over hardware that flies in space.

• Design board-level electronic systems for satellite units and RF boards, with a strong focus on power and control circuits using microcontrollers.
• Perform rigorous testing and validation of the electronics you design, ensuring functionality, reliability, and compliance with mission requirements.
• Create and maintain clear documentation, including schematics, PCB layouts, test plans, and procedures.
• Troubleshoot and resolve issues during design, prototyping, manufacturing, and even in-orbit operations when needed.
• Work closely with RF engineers, mechanical engineers, software developers, and other specialists to ensure seamless integration.
• Contribute to continuous improvement of design practices, test coverage, and in-orbit performance monitoring.

• BSc/MSc in Electronic Engineering or related field with solid and proven experience in electronics engineering in analog and digital electronics.
• Experience designing low-noise power supplies, timing circuits, etc.
• Experience or strong familiarity with the aerospace or defense industry (or other high-reliability environments).
• Understanding of high-speed signals and associated design constraints.
• Knowledge of EMI/EMC principles and best practices for noise mitigation.
• Fundamental understanding of RF concepts and interactions between digital, analog, and RF circuitry.

• Hands‑on experience with space hardware or environmental testing (vibration, thermal, radiation).
• Experience with PCB design tools such as Altium, KiCad, or similar.
• Experience working with microcontroller firmware or embedded systems.
• Knowledge of root‑cause analysis techniques for complex hardware issues.

You’re hands‑on, curious, and energized by building hardware that pushes boundaries. You thrive in fast‑moving environments, enjoy working at the intersection of multiple engineering domains, and take pride in high‑quality designs that work the first time—and every time. You communicate clearly, collaborate naturally, and love turning ambitious ideas into reliable, space‑ready hardware.

ICEYE is the global leader in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite operations for Earth Observation, persistent monitoring, and natural catastrophe solutions; owning and operating the world's largest SAR constellation. ICEYE is headquartered in Finland and operates from five international locations with more than 600 employees from nearly 60 countries, inspired by the shared vision of improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.

Our satellites acquire images of Earth at any time – even when it’s cloudy or dark – providing commercial and government partners with unmatched persistent monitoring capabilities. Information derived from our SAR images helps customers make data‑driven decisions to address time‑critical challenges in various sectors, such as maritime, disaster management, insurance, and finance.

Our team is a tight‑knit group of experts across many disciplines (e.g., engineering, software development, radar technology, etc.). We’re innovative, driven people who strive for excellence in everything we do. Teamwork, curiosity, and having fun are core values at ICEYE, and contribute to Making the Impossible possible!!

ICEYE is at the cutting edge of new technology and we are continuing to build and operate our commercial constellation of SAR satellites. Working with ICEYE, you will be part of making the impossible possible, whilst shaping the Earth Observation industry. You will work with varied,…
