Tus tareas

As an Electronic Hardware Engineer, you will play a key role in designing and delivering robust electronic systems for space applications. You will be part of a multidisciplinary team and involved throughout the full development lifecycle, from early design concepts to production support, ensuring high reliability and performance in demanding environments.
In this role, you will:
  • Design, test, and validate multilayer PCBs for both high- and low-power systems using tools such as Altium, KiCad, or OrCAD
  • Develop and analyse power electronics, including DC/DC converters, DC/AC regulators, protection systems, and thermal management strategies
  • Design signal and low-power circuits for sensors, data acquisition, and embedded communication interfaces
  • Build, assemble, and debug electronic prototypes, performing detailed characterisation and validation
  • Prepare and maintain high-quality technical documentation, including schematics, test procedures, and verification reports
  • Support industrialisation and production phases, ensuring smooth transition to manufacturing
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with mechanical, software, and systems engineers to guarantee performance and reliability in space conditions

Tu perfil

We are looking for a structured and detail-oriented engineer with a strong technical foundation and a passion for solving complex challenges.
You bring:
  • A degree in Telecommunications Engineering, Electronics, or a related field (Master’s degree is a plus)
  • At least 2 years of experience in PCB design and electronic hardware development
  • Proven expertise in multilayer PCB design and EDA tools (Altium, KiCad, OrCAD)
  • Solid knowledge of power electronics, including conversion topologies, component sizing, and thermal management
  • Experience with low-power and signal electronics (e.g. amplifiers, ADCs/DACs, SPI, UART, CAN interfaces)
  • Understanding of high- and low-power coexistence challenges (EMC, noise, plane separation)
  • Experience integrating microcontrollers (STM32, ARM Cortex, or similar)
  • Hands-on experience in prototype assembly, testing, and debugging
  • Strong ability to create and interpret technical documentation
It’s a plus if you also have:
  • Experience working under aerospace standards (ECSS, MIL-STD)
  • Familiarity with space qualification testing (thermal vacuum, vibration, radiation, shock)
  • Knowledge of space communication buses (SpaceWire, CAN, RS-422, MIL-STD-1553)
  • Previous experience in space or defence projects
You are:
  • Analytical and solution-oriented, with high technical accuracy
  • Well-organised and able to meet project milestones
  • A proactive team player with strong collaboration skills
  • Comfortable working in multidisciplinary and complex engineering environments
  • Clear and effective in communication and documentation

¿Por qué nosotros?

  • Work on real space hardware that will fly in orbit, not just simulations or papers
  • Be part of a fast-growing European space startup shaping the future of sustainable space operations
  • Hands-on access to labs, test campaigns and cutting-edge technology from day one
  • Join a highly collaborative, respectful and supportive team where knowledge is shared openly
  • Enjoy a great work environment that values trust, autonomy, learning and good energy at work
  • Strong technical growth path in a scaling companywhere your work has visible impact and you actively help shape both the technology and the way we work

¿Quiénes somos?

Estamos liderando el desarrollo del primer sistema de propulsión eléctrica air breathing (ABEP) diseñado específicamente para la órbita terrestre muy baja (VLEO). Este motor revolucionario permite que los satélites operen entre 150 y 300 km de altitud, captando y utilizando partículas atmosféricas como propulsor.

Al eliminar la necesidad de transportar combustible a bordo, aumentamos drásticamente la eficiencia y superamos el principal desafío de la resistencia atmosférica en VLEO. Esta tecnología disruptiva abre la puerta a una nueva generación de servicios espaciales, desde la observación de la Tierra en alta resolución hasta las comunicaciones casi en tiempo real.

Para hacerlo posible, contamos con un equipo de profesionales apasionados, visionarios y comprometidos con superar los límites de lo posible. Si compartes esta pasión y quieres dejar tu huella en el futuro de la industria espacial, queremos conocerte.
