RESPONSIBILITIES

• Apply the different aspects of Electronics Power Circuit hardware design for space environment under the supervision of a senior technical authority.
• Convert requirements into a board design concept.
• Complete the schematic capture level design.
• Perform design simulations (LTSpice, BoardSim) and various design analyses (ex: worst case, FMECA).
• Support and review parts placement and PCB layout.
• Prepare Material list and assembly drawings.
• Oversee parts managements including long lead items, bill of materials, and parts qualifications for space.
• Assist the preparation of detailed review documents.
• Respect Design for Manufacture/Test in the space environment.
• Provide manufacturing activity support for the electronics PCB and unit assembly as well as testing activities.
• Perform testing, troubleshooting, and debugging of EPC boards and units.

BASIC QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering or equivalent.
