Job Description
Our goal is to be Earths most customer centric company and we are just getting started. We need people who want to join an ambitious program that continues to push the state of the art in space-based systems design.
Project Kuiper is an initiative to launch a constellation of Low Earth Orbit satellites that will provide low-latency high-speed broadband connectivity to unserved and underserved communities around the world.
Export Control Requirement:
Due to applicable export control laws and regulations candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national U.S. permanent resident (i.e. current Green Card holder) or lawfully admitted into the U.S. as a refugee or granted asylum
Key job responsibilities
We are looking for an excellent engineer who combines superb technical and analytical capabilities with a demonstrated ability to get the right things done quickly and effectively:
Be the first point of contact between production test and design teams for operational support and triage of issues regarding hardware testing and manufacturing.
Work to optimize manufacturing test flows for avionics systems improving quality efficiency rate and overall robustness of the process flow.
Review and approve manufacturing processes and/or work procedures for assembly and test of avionics devices.
Drive disposition and corrective actions for non-conformances occurring during production testing.
Lead MRB efforts for avionics PCBAs/subsystems and driving RCA of nonconforming materials with development engineers.
Provide training and improve work instructions for production operators to reduce need for engineering support on repeat issues.
Troubleshoot and repair test set ups.
Work with the test engineering team to improve test stability reduce test time and guarantee the quality of the measurement data.
Work with production manufacturing engineering to improve process flow and reduce test set up and workmanship errors.
Develop reporting tools on manufacturing KPIs.
Travel to CMs to set up on-site testing and train technicians/operators.
A day in the life
As a Sr. Power Avionics Hardware Test Engineer you will work within the development engineering team to support production of avionics hardware. You will be responsible for dispositioning nonconforming parts and leading the material review board (MRB) for your system(s); working with the design team to root-cause issues for both components and test systems. You will support the overall manufacturing test flow and strive for process excellence looking for opportunities to improve yield and efficiency. You will be an expert in how your system(s) are tested and provide training support for manufacturing technicians as well as co-develop and sign off on manufacturing procedures.
You will work with a team of top-notch engineers and collaborate with multiple other spacecraft design and integration teams. You should be comfortable with a high degree of ambiguity and relish the idea of solving problems that havent been solved at scale before. Along the way we guarantee that you will learn a lot have fun and make a positive impact on tens of millions of people!
About the team
Our team is responsible for designing and delivering power avionics subsystems such as propulsion control solar array deployment and control and magnetorquer bars. We take ownership and work hard to deliver the highest quality solutions to support the long-term success of Project Kuiper. This team consists of a broad set of technical backgrounds and we look forward to welcoming people that are excited to help us deliver broadband internet to underserved communities!
BS degree electrical engineering or equivalent experience.
7 years demonstrated experience in a design test or production manufacturing role with new or established electronics product lines.
Experience with manufacturing test flows and automation within space automotive industrial or consumer electronics industries.
Experience or familiarity with root cause analysis of electronic devices.
Experience with space hardware qualification and test campaigns.
Experience across a whole product lifecycle from conception to sustained production.
Experience in statistical analysis of manufacturing processes (Cpk Ppk etc.)
Experience working with interdisciplinary teams to execute product design from concept to production
Demonstrated ability to manage technical projects from inception to mature execution.
Fundamental knowledge of PCBA manufacturing and test flows.
Solid understanding of PCBA bring-up test and debug.
Experience with data analysis tools (Python MATLAB etc.) to decompose manufacturing process efficiency yields etc.
