Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life.

We are seeking an experienced ARM SoC Architect to lead the design and development of ARM-based System on Chip (SoC) solutions. The successful candidate will be responsible for defining the architecture, working closely with cross-functional teams, and ensuring the SoC meets performance, power, and area targets. This role requires a deep understanding of ARM architecture, SoC design principles, and a proven track record in SoC architecture and design.

What you will do:

Define and develop the architecture for ARM-based SoC solutions targeting applications in 5G, IoT
Work closely with system architects, hardware, and software teams to define SoC requirements and specifications
Lead the design and integration of various IP blocks, including CPUs, memory controllers, and peripheral interfaces
Ensure the SoC architecture meets performance, power, and area targets
Perform feasibility analysis, trade-off studies, and simulations to optimize the SoC architecture
Collaborate with verification and validation teams to ensure the functionality and performance of the SoC design
Stay updated with the latest advancements in ARM architecture and semiconductor design technologies
Mentor and provide technical guidance to junior engineers

What you bring to this role:

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, or a related field
Minimum of 10 years of experience in SoC design with a focus on ARM architecture
Strong understanding of ARM architecture and AMBA protocols (AXI, AHB, APB)
Experience with SoC design tools and methodologies
Proven track record in designing and implementing complex SoC solutions
Fluency in both HDL (Verilog/VHDL) and C/Python programming languages
Familiarity with SystemC and SystemVerilog is an important advantage
Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail
Strong communication and teamwork skills

Bonus points for the following:

Experience with low-power design techniques
Knowledge of high-speed interface protocols (e.g., PCIe, USB, Ethernet)
Familiarity with system-level design and simulation tools
Experience with firmware and software development for ARM-based systems
Understanding of security and encryption techniques for SoC designs

This is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Saratoga office. The target base pay for this position is $150,000 - $220,000 annually. The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience.

We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities. If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed.
