Great Place to Work

®, five years in a row!

We’re seeking an Electrical and Electronics Engineer (EEE) - Component, Radiation & MMPP to join our spacecraft engineering team. In this role, you will lead Kepler’s Materials, Parts & Processes (MMPP) programs, driving procurement, screening, and qualification of electrical, electronic, electromechanical, and mechanical parts and processes that underpin our spacecraft builds. You will work closely with Design, Manufacturing, Quality, and Procurement teams to integrate EEE and MMPP requirements across the spacecraft lifecycle, ensuring reliability, resilience, and mission success. Your work will directly influence spacecraft reliability and scalability as Kepler grows its constellation.

Given the broad scope of this role, success will require not only technical expertise but also curiosity and a strong ability to quickly develop knowledge across new domains.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Own procurement, screening, and qualification of spacecraft EEE and mechanical parts and processes
  • Drive radiation engineering and survivability analysis of TID, SEE, DD failure modes; define shielding, resilience, and mitigation strategies across components and materials
  • Establish material and process qualifications for adhesives, coatings, lubricants, fasteners, and finishes, comparing various ECSS, NASA, MIL, and ASTM standards against industry best practices
  • Ensure compliance with outgassing, thermal/vibration, and contamination
  • Lead and support verification campaigns (radiation, thermal vacuum, vibration, corrosion) and integrate results into spacecraft design assurance
  • Translate mission and system requirements into procurement specs, qualification plans, and process controls
  • Prepare and maintain documentation, screening plans, and compliance records to standardize practices across builds
  • Act as a subject matter expert for failure investigations for parts and processes (e.g., DPA, LAT, X-ray) and coordinate corrective actions with suppliers and labs
  • Work closely with Design, Manufacturing, Product and Quality assurance, and Procurement teams to integrate EEE and MMPP requirements into spacecraft builds
  • Engage vendors, suppliers, and partners to evaluate, screen, qualify, and manage lifecycle risks for parts and materials
  • Approve and oversee key manufacturing processes (soldering, bonding, welding, plating, coating) to ensure reliability and contamination control

    • Required Skills & Qualifications:

  • Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical, Materials, Mechanical, or a related engineering discipline
  • 5+ years of experience in space hardware assurance, spanning EEE and/or MMPP domains
  • Strong understanding of component reliability, device physics, radiation effects, mechanical parts, materials, and processes
  • Hands-on experience with radiation qualification, material/process verification, and space reliability standards (e.g., ECSS, MIL-STD-883, NASA EEE-INST, NASA-STD-6016, or ECSS-Q-ST-70)
  • Familiarity with contamination control, counterfeit risk mitigation, and export compliance
  • Excellent communicator and collaborator, capable of influencing across multi-disciplinary teams

    • Bonus Points:

  • Familiarity with the definition of spacecraft radiation environments and the implications on reliability and availability analysis
  • Hands-on experience with proton/TID/SEE testing campaigns
  • FMECA, derating analysis, and reliability modeling of electronic and electromechanical systems
  • Lifetime analysis and testing of components and subsystems
  • Experience in fast-paced NewSpace or commercial satellite environments
