Senior Electronics Engineer, GNC
Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then youve come to the right place!
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service deliveryassociated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space systemwith a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user deviceswe can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.
Were intentional, were unapologetically curious and were 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.
Overview
We are looking for an Electronics Engineer to join our GNC Hardware team. You will design, develop, and validate electronic boards and power stages for compact, high-performance space mechanisms and assemblies. Your scope covers the full electronics lifecycle: from architecture definition and schematic capture through PCB layout, prototype bring-up, and qualification support. You will work at the intersection of power electronics, embedded systems, and mechanical integration in a demanding space environment.
What you will do:
Define the architecture of PCBAs for GNC hardware devices, including power conversion, motor drive stages, signal conditioning, and communication interfaces.
Design multi-layer PCB layouts (including mixed-signals, DC-DC converters, H-bridge drivers, and current control loops) taking into account EMC, thermal management, and space-grade constraints.
Select and qualify PCBAs for space applications (radiation tolerance, derating, thermal, outgassing).
Produce thorough design documentation: schematics, BOMs, design justification files, and interface control documents.
What you bring:
Proven experience in motor control electronics, including BLDC drives and other motor topologies (current/voltage control loops, commutation, drive stages).
Solid background in power electronics (DC-DC conversion, motor drive topologies, current/voltage control loops) and analog/mixed-signal design (op-amp circuits, ADC/DAC interfaces, filtering, grounding strategies).
Experience with board bring-up, debugging, and validation using lab instruments (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, thermal cameras).
Familiarity with space or high-reliability electronics constraints: component derating, radiation awareness, thermal management, EMC design practices.
Bonus points:
Familiarity with common spacecraft communication interfaces: SPI, I²C, UART, CAN, RS-422/485.Previous experience in the space, aerospace, or defense industry.
While we welcome candidates with global experience, please note that English is the language we conduct our business in, and application submissions will need to be in English or both English and French to be reviewed by our global team.
Why E-Space is right for you:
We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space. Thats why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families. Some of what you can expect when working at E-Space:
An opportunity to really make a difference
Sustainability at our core
Fair and honest workplace
Innovative thinking is encouraged
Competitive salaries
Continuous learning and development
