Hardware Design Engineer
GCS
Do you know: Every second, satellites orbiting Earth are helping millions of people stream content, make video calls, navigate cities, and connect to the internet from some of the most remote locations on the planet.
But the main Fun Fact is that, only a handful of companies worldwide are designing and deploying satellite broadband hardware at this Scale.
And We're #HIRING Senior Hardware Development Engineers to support the next-generation satellite internet initiative focused on delivering global broadband connectivity and enabling future direct-to-device smartphone communication. With hundreds of satellites already in orbit, launch activity accelerating, commercial service ramping up, and next-generation platforms under development, this is one of the most ambitious hardware programs in the world today.
What You'll Be Working On
The team develops the phased-array payload electronics that power satellite communications.
Think:
- Complex 20+ layer PCB designs
- Thousands of onboard components
- Multi-gigabit high-speed interfaces (~25Gbps+)
- Space-bound hardware requiring rigorous validation
This role combines hardware design ownership with significant hands-on lab work, making it ideal for engineers who enjoy taking products from schematic to successful bring-up.
We're Looking For:
- 8+ years of board-level electrical hardware design experience
- Strong hands-on lab and hardware debugging expertise
- Experience with high-speed digital technologies such as: PCIe, DDR, Ethernet, JESD204, SerDes interfaces
- Knowledge of signal integrity, power integrity, and hardware validation
- Full product lifecycle experience from design through manufacturing support
- Bonus points for someone with Satellite, aerospace, or space hardware experience
Why This Opportunity?
This isn't just another hardware role.
You'll be working on technology that leaves the lab, launches into orbit, and becomes part of a global communications network. Few engineers get the chance to influence hardware at this scale while remaining deeply involved in both design and hands-on validation.
If you're passionate about complex hardware, high-speed electronics, and building technology that literally reaches space, I'd love to connect.
