Key Responsibilities:
Design multi-layer PCBs (up to 10+ layers) for satellite subsystems such as:
Power distribution boards (EPS)
Onboard computers (OBC)
ADCS sensor boards
Payload interface and control boards
Work with aerospace-grade components (radiation-tolerant, ITAR-free, MIL-spec)
Perform impedance matching, signal integrity analysis, and grounding strategies
Collaborate with electrical, mechanical, and thermal teams to ensure board fit, routing, and thermal compatibility
Generate schematics, BoMs, Gerber files, and manufacturing documentation
Support in board bring-up, test jig development, and functional testing
Ensure compliance with aerospace standards (ECSS, IPC-6012/6013, MIL-PRF-31032)
Optimize designs for manufacturability (DFM), assembly (DFA), and testability (DFT)
Required Skills & Qualifications:
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or equivalent
3+ years of hands-on experience in PCB design for high-reliability embedded systems
Proficiency in tools such as
KiCad
,
OrCAD or Eagle
Experience with high-speed routing (LVDS, Ethernet, DDR), EMI/EMC compliance
Strong understanding of aerospace component selection and derating practices
Familiarity with signal/power integrity simulation tools (e.g., HyperLynx, ADS)
Preferred Qualifications:
Experience with space-grade hardware (CubeSat or satellite bus subsystems)
Knowledge of ECSS or IPC Class 3 / Class 3A requirements
Experience in vibration and thermal design constraints for launch environment
Exposure to RF layout techniques (UHF, S-Band)
What We Offer:
Opportunity to work on cutting-edge space missions
Collaborative and interdisciplinary R&D environment
Access to hardware-in-the-loop and cleanroom facilities
Growth in India's evolving NewSpace ecosystem
