Array Labs builds advanced radar systems to help humanity understand and respond to changes across the physical world.

We’re launching a coordinated fleet of radar satellites to create a high-resolution 3D map of the Earth – updated in real time – enabling faster, smarter decision-making for government and commercial organizations supporting disaster response, infrastructure resilience, and mission-critical geopolitical intelligence.

We design and build our satellites end-to-end, producing the world’s most advanced earth observation satellites. Our fleet will deliver unprecedented levels of accuracy, coverage, and responsiveness to power critical insights precisely where they’re needed most.

About the Job

As a Senior Electrical Design Engineer, you will design and validate the digital and mixed-signal electronics that support Array’s radar payloads and satellite platforms. Your work will include high-speed digital interfaces, precision clocking and timing distribution, power regulation and control circuits, system monitoring and telemetry hardware, and fault-tolerant satellite avionics. You will take hardware through design, prototyping, bring-up, and qualification, working closely with RF, antenna, mechanical, and systems engineers. The hardware you develop will directly affect system performance, power efficiency, stability, and overall reliability on orbit.

Develop advanced electronic platforms, from architecture to manufacturing

Work closely with software, firmware, RF, antenna, digital, and mechanical design engineers to design and validate state-of-the-art spacecraft electronics

Create requirements, perform system trades, select components, capture schematics, design complex electronic assemblies and manage manufacturing

Lead prototyping, hardware bring-up, debug, manufacturing, and test campaigns

Rapidly iterate on and improve electronic designs based on laboratory, environmental and on-orbit testing

B.S. in Electrical Engineering, or a related field with 4-7 years of relevant experience

Experience in electronics design, bring-up, and test

Excellent teamwork and communication skills

Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner

High levels of self-motivation and personal accountability

Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints

Master’s degree in electrical engineering, or a related field

Hands-on experience with full-life cycle hardware development (concept to production) in consumer electronics, power electronics, communications, automotive, aerospace, and/or robotics

Background in high-speed board design, simulation, and validation techniques including PCB stack-up, fabrication considerations, layout constraints, component selection, and measurement

Background in electromagnetic theory and RF fundamentals such as S-parameters, transmission lines, and broadband impedance matching

Hands-on experience designing high-performance platforms including compute (SoCs, FPGAs, MCUs), storage (DDR, SSDs), high-speed interfaces (PCIe, SPI, JESD204B), RF components (PAs, LNAs, switches)
