EGSE Engineer

Here at The Exploration Company, we are developing, producing, and operating Nyx, a modular and reusable space orbital vehicle that can eventually be refuelled in orbit and that can carry cargo - and potentially humans in the longer run. Key Responsibilities: Design, develop, and maintain Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) sub-system and system level testing Define and implement EGSE hardware and software architectures tailored to specific test scenarios, AIT campaigns, and HiL environments Develop LabVIEW-based applications, for both desktop and real-time platforms (e.g., PXI, cRIO), supporting checkout, functional, and pre-launch test operations Integrate and configure NI VeriStand as part of real-time test setups, including simulation of spacecraft interfaces and umbilical/harness verification Design and support power, signal conditioning, and telemetry/telecommand interfaces between EGSE and the Unit/Spacecraft Under Test Support RF test activities for the TT&C chain, including uplink telecommand injection, downlink telemetry reception, and coordination of conducted/radiated test setups with the RF/comms subsystem team Collaborate with cross-functional teams (AIT, systems, RF, electrical, and FSW) to ensure seamless integration of EGSE hardware and software into functional test platforms Support test execution, data acquisition, logging, and automated reporting during integration, functional, and environmental test campaigns Create and maintain technical documentation, including EGSE architecture specifications, ICDs, code documentation, and user/operator guides Provide support for debugging, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement of EGSE and test platforms, including on-site support during AIT/launch campaigns Develop a robust and scalable EGSE software framework supporting reuse and modularity across projects Define test automation workflows Design and maintain EGSE-to-EUT interface hardware (harnesses, breakout boxes, simulators, load banks)
