Senior Electrical Engineer

Overview

The future of aerospace and defense starts here. Ursa Major was founded to revolutionize how America and its allies access and apply high-performance propulsion, from hypersonics to solid rocket motors, satellite maneuvering and launch. We design and deliver propulsion and defense systems that solve urgent national security demands. The journey to space starts with the engines. We design rocket engines and propulsion solutions and aim to empower every link in the value chain to operate without limits. Our products and technologies require an extraordinary team to mold tomorrow's technologies while deploying today's best practices.

Our propulsion systems rely on sensors, actuators, controllers, and other electronic hardware working together. In this senior role you will develop avionics hardware to interface measurement and control components with control software. The hardware interfaces with measurement devices and actuators such as valves, pressure sensors, temperature sensors, accelerometers, BLDC motors, and communication busses. A solid foundation in electronics for harsh environments and a focus on space applications are essential. You will help define and implement our verification strategy using best practices and customer inputs.

Responsibilities

• Develop mixed-signal designs and shepherd them through the full product life-cycle, including requirements definition, design, development, qualification and release to production.
• Support avionics architecture trade studies, analyses, performance characterization and specification, device selection, and roadmap direction.
• Perform de-rating analysis, worst case circuit analysis, FMECA, and system reliability analysis.
• Develop avionics systems that interface with sensors and actuators.
• Support definition and implementation of hardware to software interfaces to implement control law and automated test functions.
• Support risk analyses, design for test / manufacture / cost, and root-cause analysis of test discrepancies.
• Participate in program level technology development, mission and safety objectives, and avionics development process improvements.
• Support rocket engine testing and ground support as necessary.
