    We are seeking for enthusiastic, creative and hard-working electronic engineers to join our power and propulsion scientists and engineers in the development of our flagship satellite to ultra-low Earth Orbit (ULEO).


    Applicants should be able to design, build and test electronic circuits for sensing, real-time monitoring, communicating and controlling various subsystems of the air-breathing propulsion system from the ground-up.


    Fundamental Requirements:
    Excellent understanding of the fundamentals (theory and practice) of digital and analogue electronics and control

    PID control tuning.
    PCB design, schematic and layout (preferable using Altium).
    Experience in the aerospace industry is preferable.

    About NewOrbit Space

    NewOrbit is developing the first air-breathing electric propulsion (ABEP) system to be trialled in ULEO.

    Operating in ULEO comes with game-changing benefits to most satellite applications; however, it hasn't been exploited yet, since a propulsion system to counteract drag from air particles present at these altitudes is required.

    Practically, for years-long missions, this can only be achieved using these air particles already present in space as the propellent for the propulsion system.

    We are aiming to perform the first proof-of-concept mission next year.

    Why NewOrbit?

    Pioneering Space Technology:
    Join NewOrbit and contribute to launching groundbreaking technology into space next year. Your work on our air-breathing propulsion system will redefine satellite operations in ultra-low Earth orbits.

    Unmatched ownership and impact:
    You'll experience a level of input that's rare in this industry. You'll participate in the full lifecycle of satellite technology development and face diverse challenges in preparing our propulsion system for space

    Join an exceptional team:
    Work with some of the brightest scientists and engineers in the space technology sector.

    Great culture:
    You'll be part of an exciting, collaborative work culture with engineering at heart.

    Equity and competitive salary:
    NewOrbit offers competitive salaries and company ownership stakes. Dedication and hard work are rewarded with a stake in the business you are helping to build.
