Electrical Engineer II-III, Systems Verified today
Your Mission
True Anomaly is seeking an Electrical Engineer to support the design and development of electrical system architectures for next-generation space vehicles. Working under the guidance of senior engineers, you will contribute to system-level electrical architecture development, system reliability analysis, and integration of power, data, and control systems across the spacecraft. This role emphasizes growing your systems engineering skills - learning to think about how electrical subsystems interact, how components meet mission requirements, and how system-level decisions impact overall spacecraft performance. You will work on cutting-edge space vehicle technology alongside a multidisciplinary team while developing expertise in both electrical design and systems thinking.
Responsibilities
- Support development of electrical system architectures and block diagrams for spacecraft avionics under senior engineer guidance
- Create and maintain system-level documentation including block diagrams, wiring diagrams, and interface specifications
- Contribute to Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) activities, documenting failure modes and assisting with risk assessments
- Assist in reviewing and evaluating electrical components and COTS products, researching datasheets and specifications to support component selection decisions
- Support component qualification planning including evaluation of environmental specifications, derating requirements, and reliability data
- Design electrical circuits and subsystems for avionics applications including power supplies, sensor interfaces, and control circuits
- Create electrical schematics, BOMs, and assembly drawings using CAD tools (Altium, OrCAD, or similar)
- Perform circuit analysis including power calculations, voltage drop analysis, and basic worst-case analysis under senior engineer review
- Support electrical system analysis activities including power budgets, load flow studies, and interface verification
- Participate in hardware bring-up, debugging, and testing using lab equipment (oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies, logic analyzers)
- Execute test procedures for electrical verification including functional testing, continuity checks, and environmental test support
- Document test results, create test reports, and track issues through resolution
- Collaborate with harness design teams on cable specifications, connector selections, and routing requirements
- Support integration and test activities including spacecraft-level electrical checkout and systems testing
- Participate in design reviews presenting analysis results, design status, and test data
- Maintain electrical system documentation including design files, test data, analysis reports, and as-built records
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent field
- 3 to 8 years of experience in electrical design, avionics, or systems engineering
- Experience with electrical CAD tools (Altium, OrCAD, or equivalent)
- Knowledge of spacecraft electrical systems, power distribution, or avionics
- Familiarity with systems engineering practices and documentation
- Experience with test equipment and lab debugging
- Strong technical communication and documentation skills
Benefits
- 100% company-paid medical, dental, and vision coverage for you and your dependents, with HSA/HRA options
- Flexible Time Off (FTO) for exempt employees; accrued PTO up to 25 days for non-exempt employees, plus 12 paid holidays; Parental Leave; Sick Leave
- Daily catered lunch and unlimited snacks for in-office employees
- 401(k) retirement plan, fitness reimbursement, and Dog Fridays
- Equity participation as part of total compensation package
