At Array Labs, we are building the world's most advanced satellite radar constellation to create a high-resolution 3D digital twin of the Earth. Our mission is to provide "lidar-like" 3D data and imagery from space, serving critical applications for both commercial and defense customers. This is a deep tech challenge in the truest sense. We're solving complex problems that span hardware, software, and data—from designing satellite systems for the harshness of space to building the massive "data factory" that turns raw sensor data into beautiful 3D products. We are looking for first-principles engineers who want to build, deploy, and scale a one-of-a-kind, vertically-integrated system from the ground up. The hardware engineering team is responsible for the analysis and design of our satellite and ground-station electronics, which spans the range of radar, communications, power management and processing subsystems. As a power management design engineer, you will lead the definition, design, prototyping, validation, and production of critical power management systems for radar, communication, and satellite. You will be collaborating with RF, communications, and radar engineers to rapidly move from clean-sheet designs to full operational deployment in space. In this role, you’ll help shape the design of the world’s first formation-flying radar imaging constellation, which will deliver a quantum-leap in humanity's ability to rapidly and comprehensively understand our ever-changing world.

  • Lead the end-to-end design and development of power management systems from concept to production
  • Define system architecture and component specifications for efficient power distribution and management
  • Design and simulate analog and digital circuits for power regulation, conversion, and protection, including thermal and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) considerations
  • Perform detail design, create schematics, ensure proper layout, and work with vendors and manufacturers to deliver production hardware
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including antenna, RF, digital communication, and radar engineers, to ensure power management designs meet system-level requirements
  • Work with contract manufacturers for mass production, testing, calibration and integration of power management systems into our satellites
  • Bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, semiconductor device physics, or related field
  • 2+ years of hands-on experience building, testing, and delivering power electronics
  • Strong background in analog circuit design, with a focus on switched-mode power converters and linear power regulators
  • Experience with circuit design and simulation tools such as Altium and LTSpice
  • Excellent teamwork, communication, and documentation skills
  • Learns new concepts rapidly, completely, and in a self-directed manner
  • High level of self-motivation and personal accountability
  • Ability to work in a fast-paced environment under significant time constraints
  • Masters or Ph.D. in electrical engineering, semiconductor device physics, or a related field
  • 4+ years of hands-on experience building, testing, and delivering power electronics
  • Experience architecting power supply systems
  • Experience with high-voltage high-power semiconductors (GaN/SiC/Si) and circuit design including fault tolerance and reliability
  • Experience with schematic capture and board layout using CAD tools such as Altium Designer, Allegro, ORCAD, etc.
  • Hands-on experience tuning and debugging power systems to optimize system performance and stability
  • Knowledge of EMC requirements and EMI mitigation techniques relevant to power conversion systems
  • Familiarity with battery pack design, chargers, and battery management systems (BMS)
  • Familiarity with thermal analysis and simulation tools
