EE Hardware Design Engineer

At Array Labs, we are building the world’s most advanced satellite radar constellation to create a high-resolution 3D digital twin of the Earth. Our mission is to provide “lidar-like” 3D data and imagery from space, serving critical applications for both commercial and defense customers. This is a deep tech challenge in the truest sense. We’re solving complex problems that span hardware, software, and data—from designing satellite systems for the harshness of space to building the massive “data factory” that turns raw sensor data into beautiful 3D products. We are looking for first-principles engineers who want to build, deploy, and scale a one-of-a-kind, vertically-integrated system from the ground up. The hardware engineering team is responsible for the analysis and design of our satellite and ground-station electronics, which spans the range of radar, communications, power management and processing subsystems. As a lead engineer, you will own the design of hardware solutions that will be integrated into satellites and cutting‑edge ground infrastructure. You will work cross‑functionally with our antenna, RF, communications and radar engineers to rapidly move from clean‑sheet designs to full operational deployment in space. In this role, you’ll help shape the design of the world’s first formation‑flying radar imaging constellation, which will deliver a quantum‑leap in humanity’s ability to rapidly and comprehensively understand our ever‑changing world. Responsibilities: Develop advanced electronic platforms, from architecture to manufacturing Work closely with software, firmware, RF, antenna, digital, and mechanical design engineers to design and validate state‑of‑the‑art spacecraft electronics Create requirements, perform system trades, select components, capture schematics, design complex electronic assemblies and manage manufacturing Lead prototyping, hardware bring‑up, debug, manufacturing, and test campaigns.
