What Astranis asks for
From Astranis' Electrical Engineering Manager - Digital Hardware Design ad, checked 3 Nov 2026.
High speed digital and mixed signal design
At least 8 years of experience with high speed digital hardware, including FPGAs, data converters, and serial links such as SerDes and JESD204C.
Full PCB design lifecycle
At least 8 years of experience taking PCB designs from initial concept through schematic capture, layout, bring up, and characterization for production.
Team leadership and mentoring
Experience leading small engineering teams, managing people, and mentoring employees while overseeing project delivery and making technical decisions.
Mixed signal performance testing
Technical background in validating and debugging radio performance, including EVM testing, spur analysis, and measuring radio nonidealities.
The ad asks for a B.S. or higher in electrical or computer engineering. You need 8 or more years of experience in mixed signal design and PCB development. U.S. citizenship or permanent residency is required.
How the example answers the ad
Team leadership and mentoring
“Lead a team of 6 electrical engineers to deliver software defined radio hardware for satellite payloads, reducing time-to-market by 15 percent.”
Directing 6 electrical engineers on satellite payload projects shows team leadership and mentoring. The role includes overseeing the delivery of radio hardware.
Full PCB design lifecycle
“Manage the full PCB design lifecycle including schematic capture, 12-layer stack-up design, and final board bring-up for high-speed signal processing.”
Managing 12-layer stack-up designs from schematic capture through board bring-up shows the full PCB hardware lifecycle requirement.
High speed digital and mixed signal design
“Oversee FPGA integration and JESD204C data converter implementation, achieving a 20 percent increase in throughput over previous generations.”
Work with FPGA integration and JESD204C data converters shows the high speed digital design requirement.
Mixed signal performance testing
“Designed and tested mixed signal circuitry for satellite sensor arrays, incorporating high speed SerDes links operating at 25 Gbps.”
Designing and testing mixed signal circuitry with 25 Gbps SerDes links shows the mixed signal performance testing part of the radio performance measurement requirement.
