Why this role matters:
As a Smart Manufacturing Engineer, SW & Electronics, you will help ensure our satellites can be tested reliably and efficiently before they are launched to space. You will design and own Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) and satellite‑level test systems that combine electronics, embedded software and automation. Your work will directly support AIT and Production teams, keeping critical test setups running while building the next generation of EGSEs to scale ICEYE’s manufacturing.
Who We Are
ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy – day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits.
As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE’s near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience.
ICEYE is headquartered in Finland and operates globally across Europe, North America, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. We have more than 900 employees, united by a shared vision: improving life on Earth by becoming the global source of truth in Earth Observation.
Your day-to-day responsibilities
Support AIT and Production teams in running and troubleshooting RF, electronics and satellite‑level test setups, especially in your first months.
Design, develop and maintain EGSE systems that combine electronics, embedded software and Python-based test automation.
Capture requirements and define architectures for new test systems together with AIT Engineering, Production and other Engineering teams.
Implement and debug embedded C/C++ code on ARM‑based MCUs (e.g. STM32, TI), including bring‑up, interface control and communication with instruments.
Design or adapt electronics for EGSE (schematics, interfaces, power, measurement paths) and work with mechanical engineers on the overall solution.
Use Python and tools like PyVISA to automate instruments, collect data and improve test workflows.
Write clear, maintainable documentation and user guides so others can operate and maintain the systems you build.
Contribute to improving existing legacy test setups, increasing reliability, repeatability and ease of use.
Collaborate closely with other Smart Manufacturing engineers (mechanical, electronics, software) and share knowledge within the team.
Requirements
- ·Experience with satellite or spacecraft EGSE, nanosatellites or other space/aerospace test systems.
- ·Exposure to RF test setups (antennas, payloads, RF front‑ends) beyond the basic use of the instruments.
- ·Experience in automation, robotics or similar domains where HW+FW+SW test systems are common.
- ·Familiarity with KiCad, STM32CubeIDE, GCC/GDB or similar toolchains.
- ·Experience developing and standardizing test setups, including documentation and process improvements.
