High-Speed PCB Design Engineer

• Own the high-speed PCB design for spacecraft payload electronics, from concept through layout release.
• Define and maintain technical specifications for electronic subsystems and high-speed interfaces.
• Design PCBs to ECSS and/or IPC Class 3 requirements, including stack-up definition, controlled impedance routing, and manufacturability/assembly constraints.
• Perform signal integrity (SI) / power integrity (PI) analysis and simulations (e.g., impedance profiles, eye diagrams, return loss, crosstalk, PDN impedance), and translate results into layout constraints.
• Drive component selection for high-speed designs (connectors, SerDes/DDR/USB/PCIe components where relevant), including COTS/HiRel selection and qualification of EEE parts and PCB assemblies.
• Prepare and support electrical test campaigns (functional, performance, EMC, ESD), working closely with test and system teams.
• Assess reliability, failure modes, and safety of electronic components and interconnects; contribute to design reviews and risk mitigation.
• Troubleshoot and resolve design issues during development, bring-up, testing, and integration, ensuring timely delivery of the payload.
• Collaborate closely with mechanical, thermal, and systems engineering to ensure clean integration of the electronics module into the overall payload.

• Master’s degree in Electronics Engineering (or equivalent professional experience).
• Minimum 5 years of experience in PCB design.
• Proven expertise with PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer) and high-speed layout practices, including:
• Controlled impedance routing (microstrip/stripline) and stack-up planning
• Differential pair routing, length matching, propagation delay management
• Parasitics modeling, via/return path optimization
• Crosstalk minimization and EMC-aware layout
• Strong skills in preparing and maintaining technical documentation (schematics, layout constraints, stack-ups, review packages, engineering reports).
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with hands-on bring-up/debug mindset.
