Northwood Space
About Northwood
Northwood is on a mission to transform connectivity between earth and space and bring the benefits of space to the masses through innovations in space communications technologies. If you like building quickly and seeing your work deployed in locations around the globe with real impact, we want you at Northwood. Role
Northwood is looking for a Head of Electrical Design to drive the development of our digital compute and power electronics. Work with our team to build performant and cost effective electronics. In this role you will be responsible for the electrical design of our technology from initial concept through to production. The digital backend ensures our antenna system can meet high rate processing needs no matter where it’s deployed. Our hardware team prioritizes excellent engineering, building end products that are known for their reliability, scalability, and cost. Responsibilities
Lead electrical system architecture, providing expertise on compute, networking, and power
Implement mixed-signal board designs for modems, beamformers, and control circuits
Perform prototype board bring-up and design verification for high speed digital electronics and power systems
Provide support for system level design troubleshooting and production line
Working across teams with RF engineers, antenna engineers, and DSP/FPGA engineers to optimize system performance and overall design
Qualifications
10+ years of professional experience in electrical design
Proficient in high-density/high-speed design (including FPGAs, high speed data converters, SerDes, 10/100 GigE, networking, JESD204C)
Proficient in schematic capture and PCB layout design
Experience with troubleshooting EMI/EMC, either conducted or radiated
Knowledge of PCB materials and developing board stack-up definition
Familiarity with soldering and hot air rework methods
Experience with full product lifecycle (concept through production)
