Impulse Space is hiring Electrical Ground Support Equipment (GSE) Engineers at multiple experience levels to design, build, and deploy critical electrical systems that interface with flight hardware during vehicle integration, test, and launch operations.
You will develop robust electrical ground systems that enable rapid testing, seamless vehicle integration, and reliable launch execution in demanding environments. Working closely with avionics, propulsion, software, structures, test, and operations teams, you'll deliver high-performance EGSE solutions that are safe, scalable, and mission-ready.
Key responsibilities include:
- Own EGSE hardware through the full lifecycle: architecture, schematic development, fabrication, integration, validation, and deployment
- Design, develop, integrate, and support electrical ground systems for engine testing, vehicle integration, and launch operations
- Collaborate cross-functionally to deliver reliable systems on aggressive schedules
- Support bring-up, troubleshooting, calibration, and functional verification of EGSE hardware and interfaces
- Develop interface control documents (ICDs), schematics, wiring documentation, and engineering release drawings
- Ensure systems meet operational, reliability, and safety requirements for test and launch environments
- Drive continuous improvement of GSE design standards, integration processes, and documentation practices
- For senior-level candidates: mentor junior engineers and contribute to technical excellence across the team
This role is ideal for engineers who thrive in fast-paced environments, enjoy hands-on hardware development, and want to see their systems operate from initial concept through launch.
Requirements:
- B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Mechatronics, or related technical discipline
- Experience designing, building, and deploying EGSE, avionics integration hardware, or other high-reliability electrical systems
- Strong understanding of electrical system design fundamentals, including signal integrity, grounding, shielding, and power distribution
- Hands-on experience with sourcing instrumentation, hardware integration, electrical testing, and system troubleshooting
- Familiarity with common aerospace and industrial communication protocols (Ethernet, RS-422, CAN, etc.) and networking (TCP/IP, CAT5, serial protocols)
- Ability to work effectively in fast-paced development and test environments
