Hardware-in-the-Loop Engineer (Thruster Controls and Electronics)

At NewOrbit Space, our mission is to engineer the lowest orbiting satellites on Earth to rapidly advance global connectivity and insight.

We are currently building satellites that can operate at an altitude of just 200 km - one-third that of conventional satellites. Thanks to our propulsion system AURA, we can compensate for the atmospheric drag at ultra-low altitudes.

Your role

You will be responsible for, and take ownership of, the full life-cycle of the hardware test systems, including: specification, design, procurement, construction, software development, integration and maintenance of Hardware-In-Loop testing of our electronic control systems for the AURA gridded-ion thruster, with the aim of testing both the hardware and its embedded software.

You will be working cross-functionally with the electronics, control, software and satellite teams.

Key Responsibilities

• Specify, design and build a HIL system for testing the AURA t...
