Satellite Electro-Mechanical Engineer

Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.
Why this role is important   The Staff Satellite Electro-Mechanical Engineer will participate in the development, building, and testing of hardware for E-Space satellites including PCBs, harnesses, mechatronics, etc. The ideal candidate has 10+ years of experience in mechanical or electrical engineering with at least 5 years of electro-mechanical design including harnessing and PCB mechanical work.   This position will report to the Electro-Mechanical Engineering Manager and will work closely with the Electrical, Mechanical, and Systems Engineering teams. The successful candidate will be based in our Saratoga, CA office
