Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Electronics Engineer (Space applications) - **Company:** Unbound Orbits Limited - **Location:** London, UK - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Altium Designer, Digital Technology, Electronic Design Automation, Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), Cadence Virtuoso, Signal Integrity, Systems Integration, Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter, Image Acquisition, Data Processing, Pcb Layout - **Published:** July 16, 2026 - **Apply:** https://uk.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=14885d717376a6d0 ## About the Role * Demonstrated experience in developing complex electronics systems, ideally (but not necessarily) in the space industry, * Experience with schematic design and PCB layout tools (e.g. Altium Designer, Cadence, KiCad), * Strong understanding of analogue, digital and power electronics principles, * Knowledge of EEE component selection for high-reliability or space applications, including derating and radiation tolerance, * Familiarity with electrical simulation tools and analysis techniques (e.g. SPICE, signal integrity, power), * Highly organised, independent, and proactive working style with the ability to manage competing priorities and drive initiatives forward without constant supervision, * Excellent communication skills across all levels, capable of translating complex technical concepts for diverse audiences. Don't meet every requirement? Apply anyway. We'd rather talk to someone with the right curiosity and drive than pass on a great engineer. If this role excites you, we want to hear from you., * Are you willing to work from Unbound's London office at least 3 days a week? ## Description * Lead top-level electronics architecture trade-offs to support a diverse range of different in-orbit servicing missions, * Perform schematic designs for mixed-signal, power, and digital systems - from concept through to detailed design, * Design and integrate FPGA/SoC-based processing platforms for image acquisition and data processing (incl. AI applications), * Develop sensor readout electronics, motor control circuits, power distribution and regulation and spacecraft interfaces (Spacewire, UART, LVDS, and others as required). * Perform EEE component selection, derating analysis, and radiation assurance assessment, * Conduct electrical simulation and analysis: power budgets, EMC considerations, thermal dissipation, etc. * Drive PCB layout and manage PCB manufacturing, * Collaborate with mechanical engineers on packaging and thermal management and with software engineers on SW-HW integration, * Validate designs through prototyping and testing, * Select, evaluate, and monitor the suppliers of key electronic components and assemblies. Our electronics span a wide range of domains. You may not have experience in all of these, but you should be comfortable working accross several of these. We work with specialist partners to support the development, and you'll play a key role in directing and integrating that work. ## Related Videos - [Implementing continuous delivery in a data processing pipeline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/73-implementing-continuous-delivery-in-a-data-processing-pipeline) - [Your next 10x engineer isn't in your city.
