Electronics AIT Engineer
If you're up for a challenge of building something that goes to space in a matter of months and not decades, get in touch!
We usually respond within three days
Space assets and services are not fully monetized. Commercial payloads on board small satellites, like cameras, sensors, and antennas, work for less than 20% of the time spent in orbit due to limitations in small satellite buses. At Revolv Space, we are solving this problem by designing, manufacturing, and testing the next generation of critical components enabling continuous payload operations and full monetization of space assets.
We start with tackling the power limitations of small satellites by providing a fail-safe and autonomous Solar Array Drive Assembly for small satellites.
To achieve this mission, we are on the lookout for an Electronic Assembly, Integration and Testing Engineer to join our team. The ideal candidate will have 2-4 years of relevant experience and will be a hands-on individual with outstanding attention to detail. Your role will be to work on the assembly, integration, and testing of electronic systems of our spacecraft subsystems and related ground equipment.
We are searching for a person that will have great soldering skills, proficiency with relevant laboratory equipment, and have demonstrated experience coordinating and executing electronic AIT processes. This role provides close collaboration with the engineering team leads. If you're down for the challenge of building systems that will later reach orbit, this is a call for you!
