Senior PCB Designer II (RF)

We are looking to add a Senior PCB Designer II (RF) to our team. If you are excited about working in a startup environment, have a strong work ethic, and are passionate about cutting-edge electronics, we would like to hear from you.

In this position, you will perform PCB layout and library management for state-of-the-art power, digital, and RF electronics for aerospace applications. Electronics design is a core part of the company’s business, and as such, these functions are critical. You will have the opportunity to work with and learn from a highly talented team with state-of-the-art tools.

As a small company, the Cesium team “wears many hats.” Candidates should be comfortable with a varied workflow that may involve multitasking between PCB layout, library management, schematic capture, review, and other related tasks.
