Key job responsibilities
This is an entry-to-mid level electrical systems engineering position where you will support simulation, analysis, requirements development, and verification for the Leo satellite power system. In this role, you will track power consumption of various satellite avionics units, build and run electrical models of power system components, process on-orbit telemetry data to validate system performance, and support trade studies working with technical leaders. You will develop scripts and tools to automate data processing, generate power budget reports, and assist in maintaining the simulation infrastructure used across the power systems team.
You will work with technical leaders and cross-functional partners to understand system-level requirements, execute analysis tasks, and present results in design reviews. You will gain hands-on exposure to the full satellite power system lifecycle-from component-level modeling through on-orbit performance monitoring.
