Electronics Engineer

About EDGX

EDGX is a fast-growing Belgian spacetech company defining the compute layer of the space economy. That future starts with edge computers onboard spacecraft and scales to data centre nodes in space. We're making the building blocks for compute services in space.

We started just three years ago, and we're moving fast. EDGX is backed by imec.istart, the imec.istart Future Fund, and the Flanders Future Tech Fund through a €2.3M seed round, plus several ongoing ESA contracts. Our first two satellite demonstration missions launched in March 2026 on a SpaceX Falcon 9, with more sure to come. If you want to help define the future of the space industry, you'll feel right at home at EDGX. 🚀

As an Embedded Hardware Engineer at EDGX, you’ll design and validate the electronic hardware that runs in orbit, where reliability is very important

.You’ll work across the full hardware lifecycle: from schematic and PCB design through bring-up, integration, and space qualification. Alongside a sharp, multidisciplinary team, you’ll help push the boundaries of what compute hardware can do in the harshest environment known to engineering

.
