Full Job Description

## Description Our Goals   At Farcast, we aim to improve global prosperity. We achieve this goal by building innovative products that enable access to information. Satellite internet is one of the most important ways to achieve this goal and to provide global connectivity coverage. However, the capacity of satellite internet services is limited by the quality and affordability of the devices consumers use to connect to satellites. These devices are called “user terminals”. Our mission is to bring unprecedented innovation to the user terminal industry.    We believe our innovation will be key in making satellite internet accessible to everyone. Please join us if your goals align with ours! We are looking for an Electrical Engineer to make an immediate impact on the design of the Antenna Control Unit (ACU) for a next-generation phased array antenna for satellite communications. As an Electrical Engineer at Farcast, you will be responsible for delivering mixed-signal PCBAs supporting the antenna system. This includes power‑electronics design, digital‑interface implementation (I²C, SPI, Ethernet, UART), component selection, schematic capture, PCB layout, and board‑level testing and validation. In this role, you will work closely with a multi-disciplinary engineering team to understand design trade-offs, propose and implement novel solutions, and support the transition to production. Ideal candidates will have demonstrated ownership of the full life cycle of mixed-signal PCBAs, including design, schematic capture, layout, component procurement, and interfacing with contract manufacturers and fab/assembly houses for board production. ## Responsibilities Design robust analog, digital, and power management circuit boards, schematics, and layouts suitable for high-volume and low-cost manufacturing Drive system architecture decisions by analyzing power‑network requirements, thermal constraints, and component options, using structured trade studies to guide high‑level design c
