About the Role: We are seeking a highly organized and technically adept Senior Electrical Engineer to act as the primary Technical Subcontracts Manager for a newly awarded space program. In this fully remote role, you will serve as the critical bridge between our internal engineering team and external hardware suppliers.

Vendor Oversight: Lead regular vendor status meetings to track progress, enforce schedule adherence, and swiftly clear technical roadblocks.
Technical Guidance: Provide necessary technical inputs regarding Power Supply CCAs, Software Defined Radios (SDR), and other COTS payload components.
Stakeholder Communication: Conduct rigorous technical reviews of vendor deliverables and provide clear, actionable status updates to internal engineering teams.
Qualifications:
Proven background in Electrical Engineering, Systems Engineering, or a closely related technical field.
Prior professional experience in technical vendor management, subcontract management, or project engineering for complex hardware.
Direct experience in the space industry, with specific expertise working with Radar & Sensor technologies, space payloads, and space-rated clock modules.
General familiarity with RF and Digital signal routing, power supplies, and COTS hardware integration.
Full-Time Benefits:
15 days of PTO per calendar year
10 paid Holidays per calendar year
Comprehensive Medical Benefits: Company covers 80% of premiums for Employee and Dependents
