Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system—with a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user devices—we can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.
We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.
What is the role:
The functions of this role include providing strategic direction and implementation in the following areas:
Work with various engineering disciplines on concepts and requirements for spacecraft harnesses, coax, PCBs, enclosures, motors, etc.
End to end ownership of harnessing including 3D design, drawing creation, prototyping, and manufacturing support.
Own the mechanical strategy and design of rigid and flex PCBs from system level to detailed level including form factors, mounting, interconnect, environmental considerations, etc.
Mechatronics design support and testing.
Interface with systems engineering on ICDs, spacecraft AI&T, system testing, etc.
