Job Description

A new space race has begun. True Anomaly seeks those with the talent and ambition to build innovative technology that solves the next generation of engineering, manufacturing, and operational challenges for space security and sustainability.

OUR MISSION

The peaceful use of space is essential for continued prosperity on Earth—from communications and finance to navigation and logistics. True Anomaly builds innovative technology at the intersection of spacecraft, software, and AI to enhance the capabilities of the U.S., its allies, and commercial partners. We safeguard global security by ensuring space access and sustainability for all.

OUR VALUES

Be the offset. We create asymmetric advantages with creativity and ingenuity
What would it take? We challenge assumptions to deliver ambitious results
It’s the people. Our team is our competitive advantage and we are better together

YOUR MISSION

As a Staff Electrical Engineer, you will be a senior technical leader responsible for driving avionics architecture decisions and owning the design, development, and delivery of flight-critical electronic assemblies for True Anomaly's spacecraft. You will shape how our avionics systems are defined, integrated, and proven — bridging board-level design with system-level thinking to deliver hardware that meets the demands of space.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Lead avionics architecture definition and trade studies, driving decisions on processing, data transport, power distribution, and redundancy that shape the spacecraft electrical system
Own the end-to-end design of complex electronic assemblies — from requirements capture, schematic design, and component selection through prototyping, bring-up, debugging, and release to production
Collaborate with system architecture development across cross-functional teams including software, GNC, propulsion, and systems engineering
Lead preliminary and critical design reviews for avionics subsystems, ensuring designs meet program requirements and spacecraft-level performance goals
Conduct and review derating analysis and worst-case circuit analysis for flight hardware
Define and drive interface control between avionics boards and other spacecraft subsystems, including power, RF, payloads, and harness
Perform system-level integration of avionics hardware and software, including embedded
