Наша компания

K2 is building the largest and highest-power satellites ever flown, unlocking performance levels previously out of reach across every orbit. Backed by over $1 billion in total funding from leading investors including Altimeter Capital, ICONIQ, Kleiner Perkins, Lightspeed Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, and T. Rowe Price — and with over $1 billion in signed contracts across commercial and US government customers, we're mass-producing the highest-power satellite platforms ever built for missions from LEO to deep space. The rise of heavy-lift launch vehicles is shifting the industry from an

О роли

With multiple launches in 2027 and plans to scale to 100 satellites a year, we're Building Bigger — helping develop the solar system and build toward a Kardashev Type II (K2) civilization. If you are a motivated individual who thrives in a fast-paced environment and you're excited about contributing to the success of a high-growth Series D-funded company, we'd love for you to apply.

Чем предстоит заниматься

You will own the success of Avionics testing involving the computing, data acquisition, RF, and power subsystems that are key to our satellite operation. In your first 6 months, you will be pivotal in developing production quality test hardware and software to deliver flight avionics through ATP and QTP for the first Mega satellite constellation. You will be working alongside the Electrical and RF Engineering teams to interface with Avionics hardware, validate prototype designs, define test requirements, and design test infrastructure to meet critical programmatic milestones such as delivery of flight hardware to vehicle integration. In your first year, you will lead multidisciplinary test campaigns, root cause investigations, and production improvements to ensure reliability and scalability

Design and fabricate test hardware, harnessing, and test systems to support electrical and RF development testing

Develop modular, reusable test automation software and drivers in Linux, Python, C++, Rust, etc

Execute development and production tests to meet internal and external customer needs

Lead satellite subsystem test campaigns from kickoff, through test report, and beyond

Develop data acquisition, control, and instrumentation systems to test at the integrated level

Own the project management of multiple test assets and acceptance testing of flight avionics including upgrades to support hardware lifecycle

Design device simulators deployed across component subsystem and HITL testbeds

Collaborate with a cross-functional team to establish product requirements, testing methods, and project test schedules
