Senior/Staff Space Systems Electrical Engineer
Antares, Los Angeles
The role
As a Staff Space Electrical Systems Engineer at Antares, you will own the system-level electrical architecture, requirements, interfaces, and verification strategy for first-of-a-kind space nuclear power systems and their associated development hardware.
Your scope will span power generation and conversion, power management and distribution, avionics, instrumentation and controls, communications, sensors, actuators, and electrical interfaces across the vehicle. You will define how these systems operate together during startup, nominal operation, degraded and faulted conditions, shutdown, and ground testing.
You will work closely with subsystem, integration, test, firmware, mechanical, thermal, reactor, and mission engineers to carry the architecture from early trades through hardware integration and verification. You will also support nuclear safety and licensing activities where those requirements affect the spacecraft electrical design.
