About this role

Role highlights: - Title: Electrical AIT Engineer - Department: Global Manufacturing Organization - Reports to: Head of MAITE Japan - Location: Tokyo, Japan - Type of Contract: Permanent - Working model: On-site - Employment is subject to applicable security screening (incl. SUPO, where required) Why this role matters: As an Electrical AIT Engineer, you own the electrical/avionics side of production at ICEYE end to end -- integration, debugging, continuous improvement, and adapting processes as new designs come through.

You will lead satellite-level verification and validation campaigns for power, propulsion, GNC, GPS, and CDH/OBC subsystems, integrate electrical hardware with satellite systems, and own functional and system-health testing to ensure flight readiness. You will act as the primary technical contact for electrical-related integration issues and drive continuous improvement across AIT methods, test efficiency, and build reliability -- ensuring every spacecraft meets ICEYE's standards for mission success.

Your day-to-day responsibilities - Execute unit-level and satellite-level verification and validation (V&V) campaigns, focusing on power, propulsion, GNC, GPS, and CDH/OBC functional operations and system health - Lead the integration of electrical/avionics hardware with satellite subsystems (power, propulsion, GNC, GPS, C&DH/OBC, RF, thermal), ensuring seamless interoperability - Test and validate the hardware/software interface -- telemetry and telecommand behavior, CDH bus interfaces, and OBC-driven subsystem responses -- without owning flight software development or debugging, which sits with the Software AIT team - Develop and maintain automated test scripts and frameworks to enhance efficiency, repeatability, and coverage across functional and environmental test campaigns - Act as primary technical contact for electrical-related integration issues, performing root cause analysis and coordinating with power/propulsion/GNC engineering to resolve anomalies - Support production readiness and design reviews (PRR, CDR) by providing feedback on software testability, hardware-in-the-loop requirements, and system configuration - Contribute to and improve AIT documentation including RF test procedures, integration plans, and configuration records - Interface with Global AIT, Power/Propulsion/GNC Engineering, and Mission Operations teams to ensure alignment on product standards and lessons learned - Drive continuous improvement initiatives in integration methods, test efficiency, and build reliability What we’re looking for Must haves: - 3+ years of hands-on experience in electrical/avionics integration, testing, or production of complex systems, preferably in aerospace or high-reliability hardware industries - Deep technical understanding of satellite electrical architectures including power systems, propulsion, GNC, GPS, and/or CDH/OBC - Hands-on experience with anechoic chamber testing (antenna pattern measurement, radiated performance verification) - Working proficiency in Python for test automation and data analysis - Proven experience in multidisciplinary engineering environments with a focus on system-level validation - Familiarity with hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing, environmental testing (EMC, vibration, thermal), and configuration management - Systems engineering mindset -- able to anticipate integration risks and connect RF performance, hardware interfaces, and mission operations - Proficient English (written and spoken) for cross-functional collaboration Nice to haves: Experience with Atlassian Cloud tools (Jira, Confluence) - Track record of enabling design-for-testability (DFT) and design-for-manufacturing (DFM) - Lean and Six Sigma experience - Experience with SAR payload calibration or comms link-budget analysis beyond routine test execution - Experience writing or improving Python test scripts beyond routine execution - Proficient Japanese (written and spoken) Application Process - Talent Acquisition Interview - Hiring Manager General Interview - Technical Interview, including a Technical Challenge - Final Interview Working at ICEYE At ICEYE, you’ll join a diverse and highly engaged team united by the ambition to make the impossible possible.
