SUMMARY A Firefly Senior Avionics Systems engineer is responsible for the design, development, and testing of avionics systems on our spacecraft. In this role, you lead and develop the avionics systems, requirements verifications, and component/system level test campaigns. You also help developed and design the HIL system in order to verify functionality before spacecraft integration, interfacing with software, mechanical, propulsion, fluids, and structures teams to ensure the proper functionality of the integrated solution. You are responsible for developing and executing development schedules, system-level test and operations plans, technical mentoring of Jr. engineers and supporting launch day and on-orbit operations. You will be responsible for assisting the AIT team in proving-out functionality of all avionics systems onboard the integrated vehicles. Previous spacecraft experience is highly preferred and electrical hands on experience is required. This role relies on strong electrical engineering principals in both analog and digital design.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Own the entire process of designing the electrical architecture, testing and integrating avionics components onto the spacecraft
Support assembly, integration, and test (AIT), launch integration, and on-orbit operations
Intuitively understand the intention behind design decisions, and direct assembly and test operations based on those intentions
Write and execute vehicle assembly procedures and electrical system functional validation processes
Lead high-level, functional design and development of avionics systems for the current and future spacecraft
Develop design verification, qualification, and acceptance test plans, and coordinate with the other avionics and manufacturing engineers and technicians to execute
Recommend spacecraft function and reliability upgrades based on experience
Requirement writing and verification for spacecraft avionics
QUALIFICATIONS Required
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering
7+ years of experience working with aerospace component development, testing, integration, or operations
5+ years of experience in electrical engineering in both analog and digital circuit design, including usage of test equipment such as logic analyzers, oscilloscopes, signal generators, electronic loads, multimeters, and interpreting electrical schematics
Experience performing trade studies and sensitivity studies to select the best architecture option
3+ years of hands-on experience with prototyping circuits and testing
Requirement writing and verification
Candidate must have a proactive mentality with the ability to self-start
Experience with Python
Strong electrical troubleshooting experience with the ability to drive problems to root-cause and closure
Lead and mentor the team responsible for the development of design concepts and architectures to support Firefly’s current and future spacecraft
Desired The ideal candidate will possess one or more of the following:
Experience with spacecraft avionics systems design, development, production, test, and operations
Experience with Power engineering, design, budgeting, and test
Experience in software engineering, especially C, C++, Python, and Labview
Experience with project planning, subcontractor management, and other project management skills
Experience in industry standard root cause corrective analysis techniques, such as fault tree and fishbone analysis
Experience in PCB and Hardware design
Experience in the V-model design methodology
Experience in Failure Mode Effect Analysis (FMEA) / Fault Tree / Fishbone root-cause methodology
Experience in GND and Bonding design of spacecraft
Experience with environmental analysis and testing, including thermal cycling, thermal vacuum, shock, and vibration
Familiar with NASA GEVS or SMC-016 environmental testing
Familiar with MIL-STD461 EMC Testing
Ability to collaborate effectively with other engineering disciplines and regulatory authorities.
Work Environment & Expectations This is a primarily remote position, offering flexibility for day-to-day work. However, employees are expected to be onsite in Cedar Park, TX during their first week for orientation and onboarding. Additionally, this role requires quarterly onsite attendance in Cedar Park, TX for team collaboration, planning sessions, and key business initiatives. Candidates should be comfortable with periodic travel and in-person engagement as part of the role.
Firefly offers outstanding benefits for our employees, including generous health, dental and vision plans with low plan deductibles, parental leave, educational reimbursement, short term disability, and flexible PTO options.
