Job summary

Loft Orbital is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to lead hardware design for next-generation space vehicle subsystems. You’ll own board design from concept to delivery, tackle power supply work, and collaborate with mechanical, systems, and program teams to meet mission requirements.

You’ll work with various bus protocols and be a technical focal point for electrical requirements across teams, while flexing into electrical systems tasks as needed.

Qualifications

• Own detailed board design from concept through delivery.
• Familiarity with different bus protocols used in space or embedded hardware systems.
• Working knowledge of space vehicle subsystems and how electrical hardware integrates into them.
• Comfortable acting as a technical point of contact for electrical requirements across teams.
• Ability and willingness to flex into electrical systems tasks (harness schematics, ICD review) as needed.
• Senior‑level experience in electrical engineering, ideally with some FPGA exposure.

Responsibilities

• Own detailed board design work, including new digital and analog designs supporting upcoming missions.
• Be a technical face for electrical requirements, working cross-functionally with mechanical, systems, and program teams to deliver hardware that meets mission needs.
• Work across different bus protocols and get familiar with the electrical architecture of multiple space vehicle subsystems.
• Flex into electrical systems support when needed—helping with harness schematics, ICDs, or system-level electrical questions alongside your board design work.
• Collaborate closely with our existing hardware and electrical systems engineers to help cover a growing pipeline of new board designs kicked off across the team.
