Form of work Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you've come to the right place!
E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service deliveryassociated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.
By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system-with a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user devices-we can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.
We're intentional, we're unapologetically curious and we're 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.
What is the role:
The E-Space avionics development team designs complex multi-layer, mixed signal circuit boards for the position, navigation, control and communications capabilities of the world's most advanced spacecraft.
