Job Description
Electronics Engineer / Senior Electronics Engineer – R&D
Location: Coimbatore, India
Full-Time / Consulting opportunities available
About the Role
ERETS Space Research Labs is expanding its electronics and hardware engineering team and is seeking an experienced Electronics Engineer / Senior Electronics Engineer to contribute to the development, review, testing and validation of advanced electronic systems.
We are looking for engineers with strong practical experience in electronic circuit design, PCB development, embedded hardware, power electronics and system integration.
While this position supports our advanced aerospace and space technology programmes, previous satellite experience is not mandatory. Engineers from aerospace, defence, automotive, robotics, industrial electronics, telecommunications, medical electronics and other high-reliability engineering sectors are encouraged to apply.
Candidates with previous satellite, spacecraft or space electronics experience will be highly preferred.
Key Responsibilities
• Design, review and validate analogue, digital and mixed-signal electronic circuits.
• Develop and review electronic schematics and PCB designs.
• Perform electronic component selection based on performance, reliability, availability and environmental requirements.
• Design and review power supply, power conditioning, regulation and distribution circuits.
• Support development of embedded electronic hardware and interfaces.
• Perform power consumption, efficiency, thermal and electrical margin analyses.
• Review and troubleshoot electronic circuits during prototype development and testing.
• Support PCB bring-up, debugging, functional testing and hardware validation.
• Design and review electrical harnesses, connectors, grounding and shielding arrangements.
• Address EMI/EMC requirements during electronic system development.
• Support integration of electronics with sensors, processors, communication modules, power systems and other subsystems.
• Develop and validate interfaces using communication protocols including CAN, I²C, SPI, UART and RS-422/RS-485.
• Support environmental, vibration, thermal and qualification testing of electronic hardware.
• Identify technical risks and recommend design improvements.
• Prepare technical documentation, design review reports, test procedures and validation reports.
• Participate in engineering design reviews and provide technical guidance to junior engineers.
Essential Skills & Experience
Strong knowledge and practical experience in:
• Analogue and digital electronics
• Mixed-signal circuit design
• Electronic circuit analysis and troubleshooting
• PCB schematic capture and layout
• Embedded hardware development
• Power electronics and DC-DC power conversion
• Voltage regulation and power distribution
• Microcontrollers and processor-based electronics
• Sensor and actuator interfaces
• Communication interfaces and protocols
• Component selection and electronic BOM development
• EMI/EMC design principles
• Grounding, shielding and electrical noise reduction
• Electrical testing, debugging and validation
• High-reliability electronic design
Experience with electronic design and simulation tools such as:
• Altium Designer
• OrCAD / Cadence
• KiCad
• LTspice / PSpice
• MATLAB / Simulink or equivalent engineering tools
Highly Preferred Experience
Candidates with experience in any of the following areas will receive strong consideration:
• Satellite or spacecraft electronics
• CubeSat / SmallSat systems
• Aerospace or defence electronics
• High-reliability or mission-critical electronics
• On-Board Computers (OBC)
• Electrical Power Systems (EPS)
• Avionics
• RF or communication electronics
• ADCS electronics and interfaces
• Battery Management Systems (BMS)
• Solar power systems
• Radiation-tolerant electronic design
• Space-qualified electronic components
• Component derating and reliability engineering
• Spacecraft Assembly, Integration and Testing (AIT)
• ECSS, ESA, NASA or equivalent aerospace engineering standards
Qualifications
• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics Engineering, Electrical & Electronics Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Embedded Systems, Avionics, Aerospace Engineering or a closely related discipline.
• PhD candidates with relevant practical electronics experience are also encouraged to apply.
• Strong industry experience and demonstrated practical engineering capability will be given significant consideration.
Who We Are Looking For
We are particularly interested in engineers who enjoy solving complex hardware problems and can work independently from concept and circuit design through PCB development, integration, debugging and final validation.
You do not need to come directly from the space industry.
If you have built reliable electronic systems in another advanced engineering sector and are interested in applying your expertise to satellite technology, Space Situational Awareness (SSA), space debris detection and sustainable space systems, we would like to hear from you.
Join ERETS Space Research Labs and help develop the electronics behind the next generation of space systems.
