- Strong ability to read, understand, and debug electrical designs
- Solid understanding of spacecraft or complex-system electronics: avionics, power distribution, harnessing, and hardware/software integration
- Experience with electrical harness design, documentation, and integration
- Proficiency with schematic capture and PCB design tools (e.g., Altium, Cadence/OrCAD) and standard lab equipment (oscilloscopes, DMMs, power supplies)
