Full job description

As a Senior Electro-Optical Engineer at Impulse , you will own the development of flight camera systems and optical payloads from early architecture through test and flight. This role is for someone who wants to do more than contribute analysis in a narrow lane, you will be responsible for the technical execution of a spacecraft electro-optical product and will help define how it is built, tested, and integrated.

You will work across optics, camera hardware, embedded software, opto-mechanics, avionics, test, and spacecraft integration to deliver high-performance flight systems on aggressive timelines. This is a high-autonomy role with significant room for growth. The right person will be comfortable acting as the technical owner of the product, driving decisions, coordinating cross-functional execution, and closing hardware quickly.

(Leveling will be commensurate with experience).
