Electrical Engineer, Early Career
Job description
As an Early Career Electrical Engineer at GITAI, you will design, build, and test board-level electrical hardware for spacecraft, robotic systems, and space defense programs. This is a hands-on PCB design and avionics hardware role. You will work across the full hardware lifecycle, including schematic capture, PCB layout, fabrication, assembly, board bring-up, debugging, and system integration. We do not expect you to already know how to build space hardware. No prior space, aerospace, or defense experience is required.
Job requirements
- 2+ years of hands-on PCB design experience using Altium or a similar ECAD tool.
- Experience taking at least one PCB from schematic and layout through fabrication, bring-up, and test.
- Hands-on PCBA debugging experience using standard lab equipment.
- Practical knowledge of PCB fabrication, assembly, and DFM.
- Strong fundamentals in board-level electrical design.
- No prior aerospace, space, or defense industry experience required.
