Job Title: Senior Analog & Power Engineer

Position Description: Protingent Staffing has an exciting direct hire Senior Analog & Power Engineer with our client located in Englewood, CO.

Job Description:

Seeking a highly skilled Senior Analog & Power Engineer with extensive experience in analog circuit design and power electronics for space applications.
This role focuses on designing robust, high-efficiency power delivery and analog front-end solutions for advanced spaceborne computing systems.


Job Responsibilities:

Lead the design and development of analog and power subsystems across all product lifecycle stages: from requirements definition through design, bring-up, qualification, and release.
Architect and design power distribution networks, including DC-DC converters, point-of-load regulators, sequencing, and protection circuits for space applications.
Perform detailed analog and power analysis, including stability, efficiency, thermal performance, worst-case circuit analysis, and derating.
Drive component selection and validation for high-reliability and radiation-tolerant environments.
Define and validate power integrity and noise performance, ensuring compliance with system-level requirements.
Develop test plans and execute hands-on bring-up, validation, and debugging of analog and power hardware.
Collaborate closely with digital, RF, mechanical, and system engineers to ensure robust cross-domain integration.
Support environmental and qualification testing (thermal vacuum, vibration, radiation) and correlate results with design expectations.
Present technical content in design reviews and contribute to peer design evaluations.


Job Qualifications:

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
7+ years of experience in analog and power electronics design, preferably in space or high-reliability applications.
Strong expertise in power supply design (GaN Technology for Power, DC-DC converters, LDOs, power distribution, sequencing, and protection circuits).
Solid background in analog circuit design for command and telemetry as well as signal conditioning, filtering, sensing, and control loops.
Experience performing worst-case circuit analysis, stability analysis, and thermal considerations.
Familiarity with power integrity, noise analysis, and EMI/EMC mitigation techniques.
Experience designing for high-reliability or space environments, including derating and component selection.
Proficiency with schematic and PCB design tools (e.g., Altium Designer).
Hands-on lab experience (oscilloscopes, power analyzers, network analyzers, debugging complex boards).
Experience supporting hardware bring-up, validation, and environmental testing.
Strong problem-solving skills and ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment.
Excellent communication and teamwork skills.


Preferred Job Qualifications:

Experience with radiation-tolerant or radiation-hardened power design techniques
Familiarity with space industry standards (NASA, MIL-STD, ECSS, IPC)
Knowledge of FPGA, digital, or mixed-signal system integration considerations
Familiarity with modeling/simulation tools (e.g., SPICE, SIMPLIS, MATLAB)
Experience with EMI/EMC compliance and mitigation strategies
Background in high-efficiency or compact power design (e.g., density optimization, magnetics design)
