Design, build, and operate mission-optimized satellite constellations with Muon Space. Backed by Air Street.
About the role
Muon seeks a Hardware Test Engineer to join our Testbeds & EGSE team — the group that builds the Hardware-In-The-Loop (HITL) testbeds behind every Muon mission and the electrical ground support equipment (EGSE) used to interface with our satellites during assembly, integration, and test. In this role you'll lead the design of our future testbed infrastructure and next generation of EGSE, while staying hands-on in the build and bring-up of the testbeds our missions depend on today.
What they're looking for
- 5+ years of hands-on experience with complex electromechanical systems, including 2+ years in test, testbed, or test-infrastructure development
- Background in electrical engineering, embedded software, mechanical engineering, or industrial controls
- Experience designing hardware — electrical, mechanical, or integrated systems — that others build and use
- Ability to read and work from electrical schematics, block diagrams, and production drawings
- Strong hands-on debugging skills across hardware and software interfaces, with standard test equipment (multimeters, oscilloscopes)
- Scripting or programming ability (Python, Bash, or similar)

This team sits at the crossroads of disciplines, and so can you: engineers with electrical, embedded software, mechanical, or industrial controls backgrounds all thrive here. You'll work directly with the electrical missions team to define each testbed's parallel of the mission's flight hardware, and see your designs go from concept to daily use across the company.
Due to the hands-on nature of this role, it requires onsite work at our San Jose location 5x days a week.
- Lead the design of future HITL testbed infrastructure: architecture, form factor, non-satellite hardware, and external interfaces
- Lead the design of next-generation EGSE used to power, command, and monitor satellites during integration...
