As of Jun 4, 2026, the average yearly pay for spacecraft power system engineer in the United States is $124,441.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $99,000.00 and $151,000.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is the difference between Spacecraft Power System Engineer vs Satellite Systems Engineer?

AspectSpacecraft Power System EngineerSatellite Systems Engineer
Required CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Electrical Engineering, Power Systems specializationBachelor's or Master's in Electrical, Aerospace, or Systems Engineering
Work EnvironmentDesigning, testing, and integrating power systems for spacecraft in labs and cleanroomsDeveloping and managing satellite systems, including power, in engineering offices and labs
Industry UsagePrimarily in aerospace, space agencies, and defense contractorsIn satellite manufacturing, aerospace companies, and space agencies

While both roles focus on electrical systems within space technology, the Spacecraft Power System Engineer specializes in designing and managing power systems specifically for spacecraft, whereas the Satellite Systems Engineer covers broader satellite systems, including communication, payload, and power. The former is more focused on power subsystem integration, while the latter oversees entire satellite operations.

Job description

Provides engineering support to implement improved inverter-based resources (IBRs) capabilities and modeling for IBRs. Reviews submissions of technical data related to maximization of voltage ride-through (VRT) and frequency ride-through (FRT) to ensure compliance with ERCOT requirements. Performs reliability power system studies, including steady-state and dynamic stability studies, to assess the impact of inverter based-resource VRT and FRT performance on the ERCOT system. Works with market participants to understand requirements, facilitate submissions, and implementation of modifications or exemptions. Coordinates with internal ERCOT teams to ensure all requirements related to VRT and FRT are being met. Serves as subject matter expert on topics related to VRT and FRT performance for inverter-based resources. Supports development of processes and procedures related to VRT and FRT maximization and may support development and implementation of future Revision Requests in this area.

JOB DUTIES

  • Performs reliability power system studies, including steady-state and dynamic stability studies, to assess the impact of inverter based-resource voltage ride-through (VRT) and frequency ride-through (FRT) performance on the ERCOT system.
