With multiple launches planned through 2026 and 2027, we're Building Bigger to develop the solar system and become a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a groundbreaking Series C space startup, we'd love for you to apply. The Role You will support development of K2's RF and Avionics systems for the Mega Class satellite and future design versions of the spacecraft. You will serve as a key hands-on liaison supporting development, assembly, integration and test of our advanced satellite avionics systems. Responsibilities • Build, route, and terminate RF and Avionics harnesses, including coax assemblies and high-frequency connectors to K2 specifications or industry standards, • Set up and execute RF and Avionics tests using spectrum/network analyzers, signal generators, oscilloscopes, and power meters to validate system performance, • Support testing campaigns from integration through environmental test and ATP, including documentation of test configurations, calibration data, and results, • Assemble electromechanical assemblies and assist development of production processes for first time builds, • Work closely with engineering to troubleshoot issues on RF and Avionics hardware, • Collaborate with RF, Electrical, and Mechanical engineers during development and prototyping builds to inform design and verify performance, • Mentor junior technicians and support standardization of RF and Avionics test, • Ensure compliance with cleanroom, ESD, and safety protocols, • 5+ years of experience in environmental testing preferably in the aerospace industry, • Experience with small to medium RF parts and components, • Must be able to read drawings, test procedures, and schematics to build and test hardware, • Experience working in a highly iterative production environment and ability to adapt, • Ability to operate autonomously and make decisions in real-time during testing operations, • Excellent organization and communication skills with attention to detail during data analysis, reporting, and presenting findings to engineers, • Familiarity with MES/ERP software, • Must be able to perform repetitive tasks such as bending or twisting, grasping, standing, lifting, pulling, pushing, stooping, stretching, carrying, and use hands to operate tools or machine controls, • Must be able to lift and carry parts or equipment up to 50 lbs. unassisted, • Must be able to stand for extended periods of time, • Experience in a fast-paced production development environment, • Experience with in-space electro-mechanical assemblies, • Hourly pay range for this non-exempt role is $38 – $48 + equity in the company, • Compensation will be based on several factors including, but not limited to: knowledge and skills, education, and experience level If you need a reasonable accommodation as part of your application for employment or interviews with us, please let us know. Export Compliance As defined in the ITAR, "U.S. Persons" include U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents (i.e., Green Card holders), and certain protected individuals (e.g., refugees/asylees, American Samoans). Please consult with a knowledgeable advisor if you are unsure whether you are a "U.S. Person." The person hired for this role will have access to information and items controlled by U.S. export control regulations, including the export control regulations outlined in the International Traffic in Arms Regulation (ITAR). The person hired for this role must therefore either be a "U.S. person" as defined by 22 C.F.R. § 120.15 or otherwise eligible for a federally issued export control license.
