    Description

    Spacecraft represent the most pressing unmet need across the entire aerospace industry. As more launch vehicles come online and the cost to orbit decreases, more companies launching payloads to space continue to emerge.
    For the first time in history, this influx of payload companies combined with reduced launch costs has resulted in a massive increase in need for commercial spacecraft platforms, known as satellite buses. These buses hold the payloads of our customers and are flown on launch vehicles.
    Apex manufactures these satellite buses at scale using a combination of software, vertical integration, and hardware that is designed for manufacturing. Our spacecraft enable the future of society: ranging from earth observation to communications and more.
    We'd love for you to join us on our mission of providing humankind access to the galaxy beyond our planet.
    About the Role
    Apex is seeking a seasoned spacecraft Electrical Engineer to work on a closely integrated team who will drive the design of the avionics, flight computer and power systems to meet the requirements of our bus. You will have an opportunity to approach this from a clean sheet design and inform coupled trades across the vehicle architecture. You will be innovative in your approach to push the limits of design and performance, while disrupting and making an impact on the industry.
    Responsibilities:

    • Provide engineering expertise in design, analysis, and testing of DC-DC power converters for harsh environments.
    • Work on electrical power system and sub-system level design trades and develop requirements.
    • Define and perform electrical power system verification testing and analysis.
    • Work with multidisciplinary teams of design, test, and production engineers to create new power electronics hardware.
    • Drive system and electrical architecture trades, product requirements, component selection, design analysis, schematic capture, prototyping, bring-up, design documentation, manufacturing planning, and production test for electrical designs.
    • Provide technical leadership across the organization, manage related risk and change across the program and drive new technology introduction.
    Requirements:
    • U.S. Person status is required as this position needs to access export controlled data.
    • 6+ years of spacecraft electronics experience.
    • Experience across multiple spacecraft programs.
    • Bachelor's degree in aerospace engineering or a related field. Master's degree preferred but not required.
    • Possess excellent interpersonal skills, able to work effectively within an organization and convey decisions, direction, and conclusions in a manner meaningful to multiple audiences.
    • Extensive experience in spacecraft design, launch, and operation, including experience at all phases of the development lifecycle.
    • Experience in integrated software/hardware verification and testing.
    Compensation
    Salary Range: $165,000 - $195,000 a year
    The stated compensation range reflects only the targeted base salary range and excludes additional benefits. If your salary requirements fall outside of the range, we still encourage you to apply.
