ALL.SPACE is seeking a Senior Digital Hardware Engineer to support the team in the design and implementation of the hardware subsystems of its mobile and fixed tracking antenna terminals. The position reports to the VP of Hardware. This role will be instrumental in developing the hardware systems of the satellite antenna terminal, which is capable of multi beam satellite links, identification, acquisition, and tracking of using electronically steered antenna (ESA) technology and hybrid electro-mechanically steered antenna terminals in mobile or fixed platform environments, including aeronautical, maritime, and land applications.
The role will focus on the PCB hardware design of the terminal. The candidate should have a good understanding of design for manufacturability and cost-effective designs for a wide range of applications from high end aeronautical to low-cost consumer devices.
Due to the innovative nature of our technology, all engineers are expected to bring a high degree of creativity and problem-solving capability to search outside the box for new solutions to questions in the design, control, and operation of a cost-effective Satcom terminal.
Essential Job Duties and Responsibilities:
Lead the design of several complex hardware designs and be able to manage conflicting and dynamic priorities
Architect and design the hardware aspects of the terminal, ensuring performance, quality and cost targets are achieved.
Prepare and present design and analysis summary material during internal and external design reviews
Bring up, verification and test of the hardware design in our lab, with a good understanding of lab safety requirements and processes
Thorough experience of lab test equipment such as oscilloscopes and spectrum analysers
Capable PCB rework skills
Report on the daily activities that ensure the delivery of designs and products on time and on budget
Support the certification of products under electrical and operational standards
Contribute towards Company design procedures and corporate policies
Drive continuous improvement initiatives in the areas of analysis, design, and performance
Mentor of junior HW engineers
Other tasks, as assigned from time to time
