- Perform conducted and radiated emissions and susceptibility (CE/CS, RE/RS) analyses to ensure compatibility with satellite and launch vehicle environments
- Conduct magnetic field, surface charging, and internal charging analyses
- Evaluate spacecraft panel shielding effectiveness and recommend design improvements
- Develop, review, and oversee EMC/EMI test plans for system verification and validation
- Collaborate with systems engineers, payload designers, and integration teams to ensure EMC/EMI compliance throughout the project lifecycle
- Mentor junior engineers and provide technical leadership for EMC/EMI engineering activities
- Prepare technical documentation and ensure compliance with applicable aerospace standards
Requirements
- Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering or Aerospace Engineering (Master's or Ph.D. preferred)
- 7–10 years of experience in EMC/EMI analysis and testing for satellite or aerospace systems
- Strong experience with: System-level EMC/EMI analysis, Conducted and radiated emissions/susceptibility (CE/CS, RE/RS), Magnetic field, surface charging, and internal charging analysis, Spacecraft panel shielding effectiveness, EMC/EMI test plan development and validation
- Proficiency with EMC/EMI simulation and analysis tools such as CST and FEKO
- Knowledge of satellite mission requirements, including frequency bands, payloads, and antenna systems
- Familiarity with aerospace EMC standards, including: MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-464, ECSS-E-ST-20-07C
- Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and leadership skills with the ability to work independently and mentor engineering teams
Benefits
