Job Opportunity Salary: $100,000 - $150,000
Position: Electrical Engineer EGSE, AI&T Quantum Space
Location: Rockville, MD
Commitment: Full-time
Quantum Space is developing high-performance spacecraft designed for agility, autonomy, and mission longevity in cislunar space. We are seeking a highly skilled Electrical Engineer EGSE, AI&T to lead the development and integration of electrical ground support equipment (EGSE) systems and to support spacecraft assembly, integration, and test (AI&T) activities.
This role is ideal for an experienced electrical engineer who thrives at the intersection of hardware development, systems integration, and test execution. You will be a key contributor to ensuring safe and successful vehicle build-up and mission readiness.
Responsibilities
Design, procure, assemble, and operate EGSE systems for spacecraft AI&T including power distribution, communications, telemetry/command, RF test, and custom hardware interfaces
Design and build EGSE harnesses for interfacing test equipment and spacecraft systems
Lead spacecraft electrical system integration across avionics, EPS, communications, and propulsion subsystems
Write and execute implementation plans, test procedures, and build documentation
Troubleshoot and resolve anomalies observed during integration and test operations
Support vehicle‑level environmental testing (TVAC, vibration, EMI/EMC)
Support program milestones including PDR, CDR, MRR, and TRR
Operate within cleanroom and ESD‑controlled environments around flight hardware
Create technical documentation and interface control documents (ICDs) for EGSE and AI&T handoffs across teams
Develop and run automated test scripts and code for hardware validation and regression testing
Qualifications
B.S. or M.S. in Electrical, Computer, Aerospace Engineering, or a related discipline
5+ years of experience supporting spacecraft flight hardware and integration environments
Experience architecting and deploying EGSE systems including power, command & telemetry, RF, and custom interfaces
Familiarity with spacecraft integration processes and spacecraft build flows
Ability to lead subsystem and vehicle‑level electrical integration and testing
Strong skills in technical writing, procedure authorship, and troubleshooting
Experience developing and executing automated test scripts (e.g., Python)
Proficient with test equipment such as oscilloscopes, multimeters, power supplies
Experience with code verification and validation best practices
Familiarity with ESD‑safe handling procedures and cleanroom protocols
Strong cross‑functional awareness and systems‑level thinking
Comfortable operating in a fast‑paced, iterative environment where priorities shift quickly
Nice‑to‑Have Experience
Strong background in core EE fundamentals (analog/digital circuits, power, grounding, etc.)
Experience with spacecraft data buses and interfaces (RS422/RS485, SpaceWire, Ethernet, SERDES, LVDS, CAN, Discrete IO, Cameralink)
Familiarity with avionics system architecture, electrical power system (EPS) architecture, and spacecraft power modeling
Hands‑on experience with ECAD tools like OrCAD or Altium for schematic capture, layout, and parts library management
Experience with circuit simulation tools (e.g., LTSpice, PSpice)
Experience with FPGA‑based systems and HDL programming (VHDL, Verilog)
Certification in NASA‑STD‑8739.4, IPC‑620, J‑STD‑001, IPC‑7711/7721
Experience authoring and validating spacecraft electrical system requirements
Project management or test campaign leadership experience
What You’ll Get
Ownership – Lead the development and operation of EGSE systems across mission phases
Innovation – Build custom tools and processes to accelerate integration and test
Impact – Be a critical enabler for mission readiness and system‑level success
Growth – Join a rapidly growing engineering team at the core of hardware execution
Compensation – Competitive salary, equity, and comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, generous leave, FSA, 401(k) matching, and equity sharing
Additional Requirements To comply with U.S. Government space technology export regulations, including ITAR, applicants must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident, protected individual per 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.
Apply now. Join us in building the systems that enable Quantum Spacecraft to launch, integrate, and operate with confidence.
