Power Electronics Design Engineer

Are you a power electronics engineer who wants to see your designs operate on spacecraft exploring our solar system?

Do you enjoy solving complex challenges in analog and mixed-signal electronics, from custom power supplies and magnetics design to flight qualification and testing?

If so, we're looking for someone like you to join our team at APL!

The Space Science Electronics Group at the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory builds instruments and electronics systems that generate data used in scientific research. Our group of approximately 40 engineers brings technical expertise across all aspects of instrument development, including systems engineering, digital and analog electronics design, FPGA design, and software design. We work closely with engineers and scientists across the Laboratory to develop instruments for spaceflight missions.

Examples of our work include the instrument suite on the MESSENGER spacecraft, i...
