Job description

Description
As a Senior Electro-Optical Engineer at Impulse, you will own the development of flight camera systems and optical payloads from early architecture through test and flight. This role is for someone who wants to do more than contribute analysis in a narrow lane, you will be responsible for the technical execution of a spacecraft electro-optical product and will help define how it is built, tested, and
integrated.
You will work across optics, camera hardware, embedded software, opto-mechanics, avionics, test, and spacecraft integration to deliver high-performance flight systems on aggressive timelines. This is a high-autonomy role with significant room for growth. The right person will be comfortable acting as the technical owner of the product, driving decisions, coordinating cross-functional execution, and closing hardware quickly.
(Leveling will be commensurate with experience).

Responsibilities
  • Own the technical development of flight camera systems and optical payloads from concept through flight.
  • Define requirements, drive architecture trades, and make key decisions across optics, detector selection, embedded camera interfaces, opto-mechanics, thermal design, and calibration strategy.
  • Partner closely with embedded software, avionics, mechanical, thermal, manufacturing, and test teams to bring up, validate, and mature hardware.
  • Lead subsystem integration, test planning, issue resolution, and performance closure for electro-optical flight hardware.
  • Drive execution with a high degree of autonomy, including risk retirement, prioritization, vendor coordination, and communication of technical status to leadership.

Minimum Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in Optical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field.
  • 6+ years of experience developing complex hardware systems in at least one relevant domain: camera systems, embedded imaging systems, electro-optical payloads, opto-mechanics, or optical systems.
  • Demonstrated experience owning a subsystem, product, or major technical workstream through development and test.
  • Strong cross-functional engineering judgment and the ability to translate mission needs into practical hardware decisions.
  • Hands-on experience debugging and maturing real hardware in a lab, integration, or production environment.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.

Preferred Skills and Experience
  • Experience developing flight cameras, imaging payloads, optical navigation systems, electro-optical spacecraft hardware, or other precision imaging systems.
  • Strong core competency in one or more of the following: camera embedded software, electro-optical hardware, opto-mechanics, or optical system design.
  • Experience with CMOS image sensors, camera electronics, detector bring-up, image pipelines, or embedded camera software.
  • Experience with optical design and analysis tools such as Zemax OpticStudio, Code V, or similar.
  • Experience with calibration, image quality characterization, and environmental test of precision imaging systems.
  • Space hardware experience, including qualification, acceptance, launch survivability, and spacecraft integration, is strongly preferred.
  • Prior experience operating as a responsible engineer, technical lead, principal investigator, or product-facing engineering owner is a plus.

Why this role at Impulse

This is an opportunity to take real ownership of hardware that flies. You will have the autonomy to shape architecture, drive execution, and influence product direction while working on spacecraft payloads in a fast-moving environment. 
As the team grows, this role offers meaningful opportunities to expand in scope and technical leadership.
