Job description

AnySignal is developing the next generation of RF products and services for some of the most demanding space and defense missions. We’re building a flexible, high-performance platform that’s easy to deploy, monitor, and scale — enabling customers to bring advanced radio technologies to life faster than ever before.

The Role

As a Digital Electronics Engineer on the hardware team, you will be responsible for owning the design, manufacture, test and deployment of highly integrated PCBAs used by a large number of space customers. You will work with a small team of software, RF hardware, and FPGA engineers to shepherd the product from initial design to vehicle integration, taking a full-stack approach to building robust space communication systems.

Responsibilities

• Design high-speed digital hardware including processors, FPGAs, memory, interfaces, and supporting circuitry
• Perform trades and analyses of board architecture and component selection
• Schematic capture and layout of space-grade PCBs
• Bring-up and testing of new designs
• Partner with RF engineers, software, mechanical, thermal, manufacturing teams and production test teams to drive designs end-to-end
• Work with mechanical engineers to ensure proper thermal dissipation of devices
• Work with supply chain counterparts to enable rapid manufacture and iteration of components
• Design for performance under space-grade acceptance, qualification, and compliance requirements

Basic Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, physics, or other STEM discipline
• 3+ years of professional experience designing high-speed digital circuitry
• Proven experience designing boards using EDA tools such as Altium Designer
• Experience designing and debugging Xilinx RFSoC / MPSoC-based systems or equivalent platforms
• Experience debugging SoCs across the bootup stack (baremetal/bootloader/linux)
• Experience in modeling, simulation, and testing of digital and power electronics
• Familiar with failure mode effects and criticality analysis (FMEA)

Preferred Experience

• Experience designing and implementing mixed-signal circuit boards from concept through production using processors, FPGAs, Ethernet, multi-GHz Serdes, DRAM interfaces (DDR4), I2C, SPI, operational amplifiers, analog to digital and digital to analog converters, and power supply components
• Deep understanding with configuration and interfacing of memory, volatile and nonvolatile
• Experience designing power trees with complex sequencing requirements
• Familiar with failure mode effects and criticality analysis (FMEA)
• Experience selecting and monitoring components capable of performing in a radiation environment

Compensation

The estimated base salary range for this role is $130,000-$185,000 per year, plus equity. This range reflects our good-faith estimate for this position at the time of posting.
