Job description

About the Role: 

Join a small, dedicated team driving the design and end-to-end production of Planet's cutting-edge satellite constellation. This is your chance to own the process, from concept to flight, optimizing for medium-scale mass production. If you are passionate about contributing technology to a mission that is actively monitoring and changing the world, and are excited by the idea of seeing your hardware launched into space aboard a rocket, this is the role for you. We are looking for an engineer who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is ready to take our satellite designs to the next level.

This is a full-time, hybrid role which will require you to work from our San Francisco office 3 days per week.

  • Oversight of design validation and qualification campaigns including power / signal integrity, EMI / EMC, interoperability, etc...
  • Analog and mixed signal design including interfaces to thermal systems, sensors and actuators
  • Support for manufacturing and systems teams around electrical subsystem integration

What You Bring:

  • Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Aerospace, or a related field
  • 4+ years of experience in taking designs from schematics to manufacturing
  • Experience with power, analog, and mixed signal PCB design
  • Experience with Altium tools for PCB design
  • Experience using lab equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters
  • Excellent solder rework skills
  • Experience with embedded systems and peripheral interfaces (e.g, I2C, SPI, USB, CAN, Ethernet, etc)
  • Ability to make decisions regarding design and implementation

What Makes You Stand Out: 

  • Knowledge of High Speed Design and DC-DC converters.
