YOUR MISSION

True Anomaly is seeking a talented and driven Senior Electrical Engineering Systems Engineer to lead cross-domain systems engineering across our avionics, RF communications, and electrical power subsystems. Reporting to the Director of Avionics, you will own the systems engineering discipline that ties these domains together — driving requirements decomposition, interface definition, integration planning, and verification strategy across the full spacecraft avionics architecture. You will represent the Avionics Components team in design reviews and customer engagements, translating complex multi-discipline technical challenges into clear decisions and actionable plans.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Own requirements decomposition and flow-down across avionics, RF, and electrical power subsystems, ensuring traceability from customer and program-level requirements to component specifications
Develop, maintain, and negotiate interface control documents (ICDs) between avionics subsystems and broader spacecraft systems, including software, GNC, propulsion, and payloads
Lead cross-domain integration planning across digital systems, FPGA, EPS, RF communications disciplines to ensure architectural coherence and minimize interface risk
Drive technical and programmatic trade studies that span avionics subsystem boundaries, synthesizing inputs from power, RF, and digital teams to produce clear recommendations with supporting analysis
Lead and participate in design reviews (SRR, PDR, CDR) as the avionics systems engineering representative, presenting architecture, interface, and verification status to internal stakeholders and customers
Interpret and adjudicate customer specifications, identifying areas of risk, ambiguity, or non-compliance and driving resolution with engineering and program stakeholders
Develop and main
