What is the difference between Intern Deep Space Systems vs Intern Satellite Systems?

AspectIntern Deep Space SystemsIntern Satellite Systems
Required CredentialsEnrolled in aerospace, engineering, or related programsEnrolled in aerospace, engineering, or related programs
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, space agency facilities, or aerospace companies focused on deep space missionsResearch labs, satellite manufacturing firms, or aerospace companies focused on satellite technology
Industry UsagePrimarily in space exploration and deep space mission projectsPrimarily in satellite development, communication, and Earth observation
Common Search IntentComparing internship roles in deep space vs satellite projects

Intern Deep Space Systems and Intern Satellite Systems roles share similar educational backgrounds and work environments. However, they differ mainly in project focus: deep space internships involve missions beyond Earth's orbit, while satellite internships focus on Earth-orbiting technology. Both roles provide valuable industry experience but cater to different areas within aerospace engineering.

Job description

The Role

We are looking for a Principal ASIC Physical Design Engineer to lead the implementation of complex SoCs for next-generation satellite and space systems. You will own the full physical design flow-from RTL handoff to GDSII-and collaborate closely with architecture, RTL design, DFT, and packaging teams. This role also involves managing external physical design partners, driving tool and flow decisions, and ensuring first-pass silicon success in advanced FinFET technologies. You'll be a key contributor in achieving timing closure, optimizing PPA, and supporting design integration with external partners. You will be part of a collaborative design team developing state-of-the-art mixed-signal SoCs to be hosted on some of the largest, most powerful, rapidly designed and rapidly manufactured satellites ever deployed in space. In your first 6 months, you will develop and implement new SoC sub-systems for satellite communications and beyond. In your first two years, you will have contributed to developing cutting-edge SoCs that will fly in space. 

Responsibilities

  • Own the complete RTL-to-GDSII flow: synthesis, floorplanning, place & route, clock tree synthesis (CTS), static timing analysis (STA), physical verification (DRC/LVS), and sign-off.
  • Develop and maintain physical design methodologies, scripts, and automation to optimize performance, power, and area (PPA).
  • Collaborate with front-end and verification teams to ensure clean handoffs, timing closure, and efficient design iteration.
  • Drive timing closure across multiple voltage and process corners, including sign-off with foundry-qualified tools.
  • Partner with package, SI/PI, and test teams for package-aware floorplanning and chip-to-board integration.
  • Manage and technically guide external physical design partners and service vendors, ensuring alignment on milestones, deliverables, and quality standards.
  • Work with EDA vendors to debug and optimize tool flows, and evaluate new methodologies.
  • Support chip bring-up and debug through close collaboration with post-silicon and test teams.
  • Support your product through production and spaceflight.

Required Qualifications 

  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or related field.
  • 10+ years of experience in ASIC physical design for high-performance SoCs.
  • Proven end-to-end expertise in RTL-to-GDSII flows using industry tools (Synopsys, Cadence, or Siemens).
  • Strong hands-on experience with timing closure, IR drop analysis, and ECO implementation.
  • Deep understanding of physical design constraints for multi-clock, multi-voltage, and hierarchical SoCs.
  • Experience with advanced FinFET process nodes.
  • Prior experience managing or coordinating offshore/outsourced PD teams or vendors.
  • Familiarity with DFT integration, STA sign-off, and power domain implementation (UPF/CPF).
  • Excellent communication, leadership, and cross-functional collaboration skills.
  • Act as technical leader and subject-matter expert helping to teach, grow, and mentor others in the team.

Preferred Qualifications 

  • Exposure to radiation-hardened or space-qualified ASICs.
  • Experience with chip-package co-design or advanced packaging (2.5D/3D).
  • Familiarity with physical design service vendor management or offshore collaboration.
  • Experience driving tapeouts through TSMC.
  • Experience with Gate-All-Around technologies.
  • Experience working in cross-functional, geographically distributed teams.

Compensation and Benefits:

  • Base salary range for this role is $190,000 - $280,000 + equity in the company
  • Salary will be based on several factors including, but not limited to: knowledge and skills, education, and experience level
  • Comprehensive benefits package including paid time off, medical/dental/vision/ coverage, life insurance, paid parental leave, and many other perks
