Own and design the electrical harness architecture for satellites, ensuring reliability and manufacturability for spaceflight through collaboration and configuration management.
As an Electrical Harness Design Engineer, you will own the satellite’s electrical harness architecture - ensuring every interface is reliable, manufacturable, and ready for spaceflight. By defining and controlling all electrical connections under strict configuration management, and collaborating closely with mechanical design and manufacturing teams, you enable seamless system integration and mission-ready hardware.
ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy – day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits.
As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE’s near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience.
