Satellite Harness Engineer

Were looking for a Satellite Harness Engineer whos excited to build spacecraft from the inside this role youll own the definition design and routing of the full satellite harness. Youll work closely with systems structures avionics thermal propulsion and AIT teams to create smart lightweight and reliable harness solutions that make the whole vehicle come together.

If you enjoy solving complex cross-discipline puzzles owning your designs end-to-end and shipping hardware that actually flies this role is for you.

What Youll Do

Harness Design & Development

• Define and design the satellites complete harness architecture routing plans and volume allocations.
• Select connectors cable types grounding/shielding strategies and other key design elements.
• Create drawings cable tables and documentation needed for build and integration.
• Consider EMC/EMI mass manufacturability and reliability in every design decision.

Cross-Team Collaboration

• Work with subsystems leads to capturing electrical mechanical and environmental constraints.
• Partner with AIT to ensure your harnesses are practical to assemble install and troubleshoot.
• Coordinate with suppliers on materials components and manufacturability constraints.

Build Integration & Test Support

• Fabricate new harnesses and support the new developments in the Lab.
• Support integration activities on the floor helping resolve routing interface or harness-related issues.
• Validate routing in both digital and physical builds ensuring clearances bend radii and volumes make sense.

Required

• Degree in Electrical Aerospace Mechanical Engineering or a related field.
• Experience with spacecraft or aerospace harness design (or similar high-reliability systems).
• Strong knowledge of cable routing practices connector technologies and EMC/EMI principles.
• Familiarity with CAD tools for harness design (e.g. NX CATIA SolidWorks Electrical ECAD tools).
• Ability to read mechanical drawings electrical schematics and system requirements.
• Comfort working with fast-moving multidisciplinary teams.

Nice to Have

• Experience across a spacecraft development cycle especially AIT.
• Knowledge of space-rated materials ECSS/NASA standards and derating guidelines.
• Experience with PLM systems (Teamcenter Windchill) or digital mockup environments.
• Hands-on experience with cable assembly or integration.

Who You Are

Youre detail-obsessed collaborative and you love making order out of cross-disciplinary chaos. Youre happiest when you can take ownership from concept all the way to hardware in hand. You communicate clearly ask the right questions and youre excited to help build satellites faster smarter and better.
