**Flight Electronics Designer**
**Vimotek**
is a
**space company, part of the Arctic Business incubator**
, recently named on
**Ny Teknik’s 33 List**
as one of Sweden’s
**most promising technology startups**
, working to
**de-risk spacecraft proximity operations**
,
**accelerate time-to-orbit**
and
**enable scaling of in-orbit services**
.
The company equips space companies’ engineering and operations teams with
**leading dual-use solutions**
for
**in-space automation**
within two closely associated and complementary domains:
•
**Digital Twins of Spacecraft**
for Missions Simulation and Validation
•
**AI-Driven Sensing, Perception and Control**
**What you’ll build?**
You will play a
**key role**
in developing
**Vimotek’s NavCam perception units**
– a
**sensor and compute platform**
that fuses
**cameras, LiDAR, and AI-driven processing**
to deliver
**actionable navigation data**
for spacecraft.
This is
**not a paper-architecture role**
. You will be
**designing real hardware**
, iterating on prototypes and seeing your designs move toward
**flight-ready systems**
for our customers.
**Your role**
As
**Flight Electronics Designer**
, you will contribute to
**system architecture**
and own
**sub-system level development**
, working closely with the team of
**system, software, perception and AIT engineers**
to bring them to life. You will:
• Work on the
**electronics architecture**
for sensing and computing space systems
•
**Calculate and simulate**
your designs
• Make
**trade-off analysis**
to find
**optimal solutions**
•
**Design, breadboard, prototype, and test**
**high-reliability flight electronics**
• Collaborate with suppliers on
**component selection**
• Help shape
**engineering practices**
and
**mentor junior engineers**
as the team grows
**Skills and Requirements**
**Required Skills and Qualifications:**
• Solid experience designing electronics for
**robust or safety-critical systems**
(space, automotive, aerospace, robotics, or defence)
•
**10+ years**
of hands-on experience in
**electronics system architecture, simulation and design**
• Experience on
**PCB simulation and design**
, including
**HDI multilayer and rigid-flex**
• Comfort working
**end-to-end**
:
**concept → schematic → layout → bring-up → test → dispatch to manufacturing**
• At least basic programming and scripting skills in
**C, C++, Python and MATLAB**
for prototyping, embedded development, and data analysis
• Experience with
**MCU, MPU and FPGA-based systems development**
• Hands-on design experience with a broad range of components and subsystems,
**high-speed digital and analog signal chains**
, communication interfaces (e.g.,
**LVDS, CAN, Ethernet**
)
• You enjoy
**ownership and autonomy**
• You thrive in a
**startup environment**
with
**fast iteration**
and
**evolving requirements**
• You balance
**technical depth with pragmatism**
– you know when
**“good enough” is right**
• You collaborate well across disciplines and enjoy building things that actually
**ship (and fly)**
**Bonus Skills (Nice to Have)**
• Familiarity with
**radiation environment**
,
**reliability standards**
,
**derating practices**
, and
**qualification processes**
•
**Extensive simulation and testing experience**
**Additional Information**
• The company’s primary language is
**English**
, proficiency in additional languages is a plus
•
**Right to work in Sweden required**
(EU/EEA citizenship, permanent residence, or valid Swedish work permit).
**No visa sponsorship**
•
**Location:**
**Stockholm / Luleå**
,
**on-site work required**
