Principal Flight Software Engineer
Principal Flight Software Engineer at K2 Space in Los Angeles designs and implements real-time, fault-tolerant control software for high-power satellites using Rust, C++, and Python, with responsibilities spanning architecture, subsystem integration, and on-orbit operations.
Principal ASIC Physical Design Engineer
Lead ASIC physical design for K2 Space's next-generation satellite SoCs: own the full RTL-to-GDSII flow (synthesis, floorplanning, P&R, CTS, STA, sign-off) in advanced FinFET nodes, drive timing closure and PPA optimization, and manage external physical design vendors toward first-pass silicon success.
Senior ASIC Physical Design Engineer
At K2 Space, a satellite maker, you'd own the full ASIC physical design flow for mixed-signal SoCs that fly on satellites — synthesis, floorplanning, place & route, CTS, STA, timing closure, and sign-off (DRC/LVS, IR drop, EM) through GDSII — using tools like Synopsys ICC2/Fusion Compiler and Cadence Innovus.
