About The Position

Cimarron is seeking an Electrical Engineer to join Axiom Space’s Lunar Terrain Vehicle program in support of NASA’s LTVS contract. The engineer will serve as the Responsible Engineer for the computer PCB in the LTV Control & Display Console (CDC), a key crew interface on the vehicle. This is a full-time onsite position at Axiom Space’s Houston facility, with the opportunity to convert to a direct Axiom Space position. The role covers the CDC computer board from requirements through design, fabrication, and testing. The engineer will develop board-level hardware requirements and performance parameters; design embedded computer hardware; conduct schematic capture, circuit analysis, and simulation; collaborate on PCB layout; and plan and perform testing of boards and integrated assemblies. The position also coordinates with hardware, software, mechanical, and avionics teams, and prepares design documentation and presentations for design reviews.

Requirements

U.S. citizenship or permanent residency, due to facility security requirements.
Ability to complete a pre-employment background check and drug screening, including testing for marijuana use.
5 to 10 years of electrical engineering experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
Experience designing embedded systems with microcontroller integration.
Experience with PCB design and routing.
Proficiency with electrical design and simulation tools such as Altium, SPICE/PSpice, or MATLAB/Simulink.
Experience taking a board from concept through fabrication and bring-up.
B.S. in Electrical Engineering or higher.

Nice To Haves

Spaceflight or aerospace avionics experience.
Experience with EVA or robotics (EVR) operations and hardware.
Display or human-machine interface hardware experience.
High-frequency signal routing experience.
Processor or FPGA design experience.
Experience with radiation-tolerant components.

Responsibilities

Serve as Responsible Engineer for the CDC computer board from requirements through design, build, and test.
Develop and manage board-level hardware requirements and performance parameters.
Design embedded computer hardware with microcontroller or processor integration, including selecting components for processing, memory, power, and interfaces.
Perform schematic capture, circuit analysis, and simulation, including power budgeting, thermal analysis, derating, and worst-case analysis.
Work with ECAD on PCB layout constraints and review routing.
Plan and perform testing of boards and integrated assemblies, supporting verification and validation.
Coordinate with hardware, software, mechanical, and avionics teams on crew interface integration.
Prepare design documentation and present at design reviews.
Perform other duties as assigned.
