Your Skills:

As a Senior Electronics Design Engineer, you will join our product design team to develop our first product line, which is aimed at bringing a mass-market robot arm to the growing commercial space industry. Your role will be focused on building and testing prototypes of the electronics to support robotic arm operations and eventually the actual robot arms that go to space on our customer missions. Additionally, you will be responsible both for designing and procurement of automotive, MIL, space grade components for the system. The Senior Electronics Design Engineer will help design controllers, interface boards, and power distribution units for the robotic system. Supported by the Lead Mechatronics engineer, you will design and prototype electronics for the Redwire Space Europe robotic arm product line.

What we are looking for in a candidate:

You have demonstrated experience in electronics prototyping skills, selection of components, derating and typical breadboarding. You have experience in building, integrating and testing systems composed of sensing, processing, commanding and executing elements. You will be primarily responsible for designing the power distribution unit for the robotic arm system. A background in power electronics is considered an excellent asset. Knowledge of Latching Current Limiters and high frequency switching systems is also necessary.

Responsibilities:

• Design electronics systems, schematic and layouts, based on system requirements and working with both internal team members and external vendors;
• Build and test electronics prototypes and final designs;
• Design of SMPS for high reliability applications;
