Welcome to Planet. We believe in using space to help life on Earth. Planet designs, builds, and operates the largest constellation of imaging satellites in history. This constellation delivers an unprecedented dataset of empirical information via a revolutionary cloud-based platform to authoritative figures in commercial, environmental, and humanitarian sectors. We are both a space company and data company all rolled into one. Customers and users across the globe use Planet's data to develop new technologies, drive revenue, power research, and solve our world’s toughest obstacles. As we control every component of hardware design, manufacturing, data processing, and software engineering, our office is a truly inspiring mix of experts from a variety of domains. We have a people-centric approach toward culture and community and we strive to iterate in a way that puts our team members first and prepares our company for growth.

Planet is a global company with employees working remotely world wide and joining us from offices in San Francisco, Washington DC, Germany, Austria, Slovenia, and The Netherlands. About The Role Join a team doing what’s rarely done: blending the rigor of aerospace with the speed and scale of mass production. In this role, you’ll have end-to-end ownership of the hardware that powers Planet’s satellites. You will design, optimize, and validate the critical electrical, data, and embedded systems that are the brains of our spacecraft. This includes pushing your PCBAs to their limits in testing to ensure they are ready for the harsh environment of space. If you're an engineer excited by the idea of seeing your personal design work launch on a rocket and begin its mission in orbit, this is the role for you. This is a full-time, hybrid role which will require you to work from our San Francisco HQ 3 days per week. Impact You'll Own Electrical design of analog, power and mixed signal subsystems from requirements through architecture and detailed design Schematic capture, power/signal integrity simulations; guide and review layout design Harness design including selection of components, signal definition, coordinating with mechanical engineering to define lengths, and generating fabrication drawings Bring up, debug, and validate designs; support for integration testing Power supply design, power integrity checks, and design for EMC Analog and mixed signal design including interfaces to thermal systems, sensors and actuators Support for manufacturing and qualification test development What You Bring Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Aerospace, or a related field 2+ years experience in taking designs from schematics to manufacturing Experience with power converter, analog, and mixed signal PCB design Experience with lab equipment including oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, multimeters Proficient solder rework skills Comfortable with embedded systems and peripheral interfaces (e.g, I2C, SPI, USB, CAN, Ethernet, etc) Sound decision making capability regarding design and implementation What Makes You Stand Out Experience with Altium tools for PCB design Knowledge of scripting languages such as Python Benefits While Working At Planet Comprehensive Medical, Dental, and Vision plans Health Savings Account (HSA) with a company contribution Generous Paid Time Off in addition to holidays and company-wide days off 16 Weeks of Paid Parental Leave Wellness Program and Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Home Office Reimbursement Monthly Phone and Internet Reimbursement Tuition Reimbursement and access to LinkedIn Learning Equity Commuter Benefits (if local to an office) Volunteering Paid Time Off Compensation The US base salary range for this full-time position at the commencement of employment is $114,200—$142,700 USD.
