Töösisu kirjeldus
We’re looking for electronics engineers with a foundation in the field to join our spacecraft team. You’ll contribute to the design, testing, and integration of electronic systems for our satellite projects, including communication, navigation, onboard control, and the CubeSat Command Module’s power management systems.
The role is voluntary and unpaid.
What you’ll be doing:
Designing and updating PCBs using KiCad
Debugging and verifying PCBs using lab equipment — oscilloscopes, bench-top power supplies, multimeters, and spectral analyzers
Researching space-grade components and avionics solutions for satellite applications
Working on electronics for both satellite subsystems and the CubeSat Command Module
Collaborating with other subteams to coordinate system integration
Documenting your work clearly and consistently
Ootused kandidaadile
What we expect from you when applying:
Ready to work around 8 hours per week
Ability to travel to Tartu Observatory on a regular basis
Solid understanding of electronics — schematics, passive components, and circuit behavior
Comfort working with Git and following a structured engineering workflow
Experience with PCB design is a plus
Võimalused
We offer:
