Description
Space is a warfighting domain. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build the technology that secures it.
OUR MISSION
True Anomaly delivers decisive capabilities for space superiority. We build autonomous spacecraft, advanced payloads, mission software, and space-based interceptors — enabling the U.S. and its Allies to secure the space environment and counter threats from the ultimate high ground.
OUR VALUES
Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity.
What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results.
It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together.
YOUR MISSION
As a Staff Electrical Engineer, you will be a senior technical leader responsible for driving avionics architecture decisions and owning the design, development, and delivery of flight-critical electronic assemblies for True Anomaly's spacecraft. You will shape how our avionics systems are defined, integrated, and proven — bridging board-level design with system-level thinking to deliver hardware that meets the demands of space.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Lead avionics architecture definition and trade studies, driving decisions on processing, data transport, power distribution, and redundancy that shape the spacecraft electrical system
Own the end-to-end design of complex electronic assemblies — from requirements capture, schematic design, and component selection through prototyping, bring-up, debugging, and release to production
Collaborate with system architecture development across cross-functional teams including software, GNC, propulsion, and systems engineering
Lead preliminary and critical design reviews for avionics subsystems, ensuring designs meet program requirements and spacecraft-level performance goals
Conduct and review derating analysis and worst-case circuit analysis for flight hardware
Define and drive interface control between avionics boards and other spacecraft subsystems, including power, RF, payloads, and harness
Perform system-level integration of avionics hardware and software, including embedded firmware interfaces and communication buses
Perform first article testing, unit-level testing, and production testing of avionics assemblies
Support hardware through production, integration, launch, and on-orbit commissioning
Define validation approaches and create development and qualification testing campaigns to exercise designs to their limits and ensure reliable hardware
Drive compliance with relevant industry standards, regulations, and quality assurance processes across the avionics subsystem
Develop and maintain documentation for avionics systems and components, including design specifications, interface control documents, test plans, and operating procedures
Mentor junior engineers to improve design skill sets and increase capabilities within the organization
Continuously improve electrical engineering processes and practices to drive innovation and efficiency
QUALIFICATIONS
Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field
Minimum 10 years of experience in electrical engineering
Demonstrated spacecraft flight heritage — experience designing, building, and delivering electronic hardware that has operated on orbit
Experience with embedded firmware development and hardware/firmware co-design
Advanced experience in PCB and PCBA design using Altium Designer or equivalent ECAD tools
Experience with system-level avionics architecture, including processing, power distribution, data interfaces, and redundancy schemes
Strong understanding of common s
