perú, Perú Tbwa ChiatDay Inc A tiempo completo

Astranis is dedicated to bridging the global digital divide by developing innovative, cost-effective spacecraft that bring internet access to underserved communities. Our team has made significant strides in this mission, launching two satellites into orbit, securing ten commercial deals worth over $1 billion, and recruiting a talented pool of over 300 engineers.

We work from our historic San Francisco office, which was previously used for shipbuilding during World Wars. Our satellites operate from geostationary orbit (GEO), weigh only 400 kg, and utilize a proprietary software-defined radio payload, enabling them to connect over two million people. We're excited about the impact we'll have in countries like the Philippines, Peru, and Mexico.

With substantial funding and a collaborative team, we offer a rewarding environment where you can learn and make a meaningful contribution, regardless of your career stage. As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you will be responsible for designing, testing, and validating power converters and systems. You'll collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to engineer optimal solutions, balancing size, weight, cost, power efficiency, thermal management, and other key requirements.

The role involves simulations, schematic creation, layout design, hands-on board bring-up, debugging, and optimization. Every day presents a new challenge and an opportunity to apply your skills in building cutting-edge space technology. Your responsibilities will include:

  • Technical ownership of kW-level power system designs
  • Managing key components such as solar panels, power regulation and distribution, and high-density batteries
  • Integrating these systems into the spacecraft through close collaboration with the team
  • Assisting in recruiting and hiring additional teammates to support our growing team

To excel in this position, you'll need:

  • Bachelor of Science degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or equivalent
  • 4+ years of experience
  • Passion for hardware development, including working in fast-paced environments and hands-on design and development
  • Experience designing, building, and testing analog and digital circuits
  • Knowledge of kW-level power electronics (DC-DC conversion, AC-DC conversion, etc.)
  • Understanding of PCB thermal considerations
  • Mastery of electrical CAD (Altium preferred)
  • EMI/EMC experience

In addition to the required skills, having experience in designing for fault tolerance, photovoltaics, Li-ion batteries, and magnetics in power electronics would be beneficial. We offer a competitive compensation package that includes equity, robust benefits, and opportunities for growth and development.

We provide a total rewards package that includes:

  • Equity in the form of incentive stock options
  • High-quality company-subsidized healthcare
  • Disability and life insurance benefits
  • Flexible PTO
  • 401(K) retirement plan
  • Free on-site catered meals

Astranis's pay ranges are informed by professional-grade salary surveys and compensation data sources. The actual base salary offered will be influenced by factors such as experience, credentials, educational attainment, skill level requirements, and the scope of the position. Based on industry standards, the estimated salary for this role is $145,000 - $200,000 USD per year. U.S. Citizenship, Lawful Permanent Residency, or Refugee/Asylee Status is required due to U.S. Government space technology export regulations.
