    Job Description


    Description The Space Science Electronics group at APL builds instruments and electronics systems that generate data used in scientific research.

    We're a group of about 40 engineers with technical experience that span across all aspects of instrument production including systems engineering, digital and analog electronics design, FPGA design, and software design.

    We work very closely with other groups of engineers and scientists who contribute their technical experience to the development of the instruments.


    Some examples of our work includes:

    the PEPSSI and LORRI instruments on the New Horizons Spacecraft, most of the instrument suite on the MESSENGER Spacecraft, the CRISM instrument on the MRO Spacecraft, and dozens more.

    We are currently working on instruments for the JUICE, Europa, Psyche, Lucy, IMAP, and Dragonfly missions. Some of the instruments we build include magnetometers, optical imagers, particle instruments and gamma ray spectrometers. We are seeking talented engineers to contribute to the design, implementation, production, and testing of space flight instrumentation.

    If you feel you can contribute your talents towards various aspects related to front-end electronics of research instruments used in spaceflight missions, we would be excited to have you as part of our team.

    Analog Electronics Design Engineer, your primary responsibilities will be:
    Circuit design, simulation, and testing of analog electronics


    Applications include:

    low noise and high speed detector and anode preamps, CCD imaging detector bias and clocking, low voltage power supplies, and motor control.

    Circuit design and testing of mixed signal electronics to stimulate and emulate space flight electronics. Breadboarding, testing, fabrication oversight, and space qualification of the above. Design review preparation and presentation. Test plan generation and documentation.

    Qualifications You will meet our minimum requirements if you have A Bachelor 's degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent with 3 years of experience in analog and mixed-signal circuit design.

    Understanding of basic detector operation and signal chain electronics (low-noise preamplifiers, high-speed pulse amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters, etc.). Proficient in computer-aided design. Strong communication skills and the ability to work in a team environment. Are eligible to obtain a Secret level security clearance.

    If selected, you will be subject to a government security clearance investigation and must meet the requirements for access to classified information.

    Eligibility requirements include U.S.

    citizenship You will go above and beyond our minimum requirements if you have A MSEE or equivalent with a minimum of 5 years of experience in analog and mixed-signal circuit design.

    Space-qualified electronics design experience (part selection, derating, worst case analysis). Other digital or analog circuit design experience. Leadership and organizational capabilities. Relevant space flight hardware experience. Strong verbal and written communication skills. Capable of working independently and mentoring early-career engineers.

    Be Part of Something Innovative Over the past 25 years, the Space Exploration Sector at APL, has pushed the boundaries of what is possible; delivering game-changing impacts to sponsors like NASA and the Department of Defense.

    This includes historic, science space firsts like New Horizons reaching Pluto, Parker Solar Probe being the first to "touch" the sun, and the DART mission that redirected an asteroid for planetary defense.

    As a not-for-profit university affiliated research center, APL also delivered solutions to our nation's national security challenges, as proven with the recent Deep Space Advanced Radar Concept (DARC) Tech Demo, and acts as a trusted partner with the US Space Force in space domain awareness and space-integrated warfare.

    APL teams are currently developing missions that will advance the search for life in the Solar System through programs such as Europa Clipper and Dragonfly, exploring the lunar and cislunar domains, and providing fundamental knowledge of our Sun's influence on the near-Earth environment through IMAP and other research and technology endeavors.

    To learn about these APL's mission and projects, and .
