Astranis (YC W16) | San Francisco, CA | Full-Time | Onsite | US Citizen or Green Card Four billion people do not have access to the internet. Astranis is going to change that. We are building the next generation of smaller, lower-cost telecommunications satellites to bring the world online. Join us and work with top engineers who have flown things in space before. The team is currently 35 people from SpaceX, Skybox, Qualcomm, and Google. Roles we’re hiring for include: * Embedded software -- write mission critical software that runs the spacecraft. No previous embedded or space experience required. * Avionics -- PCB design, layout, bringup, test of mission critical electrical subsystems. Bonus: experience with fault-tolerant electronics * Power electronics -- Design ~2 kW satellite power systems, including solar arrays and electronics for power regulation and distribution * Thermal -- Design and analyze systems to reject sizable point loads without the aid of convection * Aerospace/controls -- implement solutions to 6 DOF, non-linear control problems. Experience with spacecraft controls is a plus but not required. * RF/Microwave -- work across a broad range designing and implementing RF systems at microwave frequencies, including LNAs and power amplifiers * DSP/FPGA -- program FPGA hardware, develop custom DSP IP cores and integrate off-the-shelf IP cores Please check out our postings here-- https://jobs.lever.co/astranis
