Über diese Senior Electrical Engineer Stelle bei Loftorbital
Loftorbital · Vor Ort · Golden, CO
Wanna join the adventure?
Loft Orbital is redefining how satellites get built and deployed, and our electrical engineering team is at the heart of that mission. We're looking for a Senior Electrical Engineer who lives and breathes hardware design, someone who wants to sit down and knock out a board, dig into bus protocols, and help shape the next generation of space vehicle subsystems. If you want your fingerprints on real flight hardware - not just theory - this is your seat at the table.
About this role:
As a Senior Electrical Engineer, you'll be a core hardware design resource on a team that's ramping up multiple new board design efforts. You'll:
- Own detailed board design work, including new digital and analog designs supporting upcoming missions (including active work on new power supply designs, such as for the TASA mission).
- Be a technical face for electrical requirements, working cross-functionally with mechanical, systems, and program teams to deliver hardware that meets mission needs.
- Work across different bus protocols and get familiar with the electrical architecture of multiple space vehicle subsystems.
- Flex into electrical systems support when needed - helping with harness schematics, ICDs, or system-level electrical questions alongside your board design work.
- Collaborate closely with our existing hardware and electrical systems engineers to help cover a growing pipeline of new board designs kicked off across the team. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role for someone who wants to do hardware design full-time, but is also comfortable wearing an electrical systems hat when the mission calls for it.
Must Haves:
- Strong, demonstrated experience in board design - you're comfortable owning a design from concept through delivery.
- Familiarity with different bus protocols used in space or embedded hardware systems.
- Working knowledge of space vehicle subsystems and how electrical hardware integrates into them.
- Comfortable acting as a technical point of contact for electrical requirements across teams.
- Ability and willingness to flex into electrical systems tasks (harness schematics, ICD review) as needed.
- Senior-level experience in electrical engineering, ideally with some FPGA exposure.
Nice to Haves:
- Software/scripting capability - comfortable running scripts, debugging code, or managing an outside supplier delivering hardware with embedded software.
- Familiarity with CD&H (command and data handling) systems.
- Experience managing external suppliers or vendors delivering hardware/software components.
Some of Our Awesome Benefits:
*Research shows that while men apply to jobs where they meet an average of 60% of the criteria, women and other underrepresented people tend to only apply when they meet 100% of the qualifications. At Loft, we value respectful debate and people who aren’t afraid to challenge assumptions. We strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t check all the boxes.
Who We Are
Loft: Space Made Simple.
Founded in 2017, Loft provides governments, companies, and research institutions with a fast, reliable, and simple way to deploy missions in orbit.
We integrate, launch, and operate spacecraft, offering end-to-end missions as a service across Earth observation, IoT connectivity, on-orbit AI, national security missions, and more. Leveraging our existing space infrastructure and an extensive inventory of satellite buses, Loft is reducing years-long integration and launch timelines to months. With more than 30 missions flown, Loft’s flight heritage and proven technologies enable customers to focus on their mission objectives.
With a growing fleet on track to reach 30 satellites by 2027, we are scaling up quickly across our offices in San Francisco, CA | Golden, CO | and Toulouse, France to meet accelerating demand for space infrastructure.
As an international company your resume will be reviewed by people across our offices so please attach a copy in English.
