you will own the design, development, integration, and testing of circuit cards and related

hardware for spacecraft and other advanced aerospace and defense systems.

You will work closely with mechanical, software, systems, manufacturing, and test engineers to develop

flight hardware that performs reliably in demanding environments.

Design, develop, and validate schematics, PCB layouts, circuit cards, electrical interfaces, and supporting electronics hardware.

Own circuit card design from concept through schematic capture, PCB layout, bring-up, debugging, testing, and release.

Drones have fundamentally changed the nature of conflict and maneuver. The next theater to be changed by drone technology is space. Space Kinetic is a space technology startup company building a completely new architecture for space operations – one that brings the advantages of drone technology to space missions without relying on consumable fuel.

This is not a role for someone looking for a traditional 40-hour work week. Space Kinetic is building ambitious, first-of-its-kind technology, and that requires urgency, ownership, and a high level of commitment to changing the foundational assumptions for everything we do in space.
