At Sierra Space we envision a future where humanity lives and works in
space, on moons, and on distant planets. Our mission isn't restricted to
the few, instead we see a future where all people can choose to live,
work, discover and explore beyond our planet. Our company is building a
platform in space to benefit life on Earth and together we will alter the
course of humanity.
We have a bold mission. We are a bold company. Together, we are an
extraordinary team.
About the RoleAre you ready to unleash your technical creativity? Dream,
Innovate, Inspire and Empower the next generation to transform humanity
through technology and imagination! Electrical engineers at Sierra Space
research, design, develop, test, certify, deploy and improve cutting
edge products and services. These cover a very wide range from advanced
mission payloads and electronic systems through highly integrated aircraft to
orbital and space exploration systems. You'll conceptualize and design new
products and processes throughout the product lifecycle from analog and
digital electronic circuit card assemblies to fully integrated systems.
Sierra Space's Defense division focuses on the design, build, and
operations of small satellites in support of commercial services and national
security space and offers two work locations: Louisville, Colorado and
Centennial, Colorado.
As an Electrical Power Subsystem Engineer you will be using your electrical
skills and expertise to research, architect, model, simulate, test,
verify and improve cutting edge products and services. You'll be performing
electrical design, analysis and test of spacecraft using industry standard
/ in-house analysis software and tools. You will be able to create
innovative power design solutions for spacecraft hardware, then see your
designs come to fruition as you continue through article integration and
test; and finally, be a part of the operations for the spacecraft that you
designed, built, and tested.
