- YOUR MISSION
True Anomaly is seeking an Electrical Engineer to support the design and development of electrical system architectures for our next-generation space vehicles. Working under the guidance of senior engineers, you will contribute to system-level electrical architecture development, system reliability analysis, and integration of power, data, and control systems across the spacecraft.
This role emphasizes growing your systems engineering skills — learning to think about how electrical subsystems interact, how components meet mission requirements, and how system-level decisions impact overall spacecraft performance. You'll work on cutting-edge space vehicle technology alongside a multidisciplinary team while developing expertise in both electrical design and systems thinking.
