About the position

Tomorrow.io's Space & Sensors team is at the forefront of developing innovative RF and acoustic-based sensing systems, including radar, radiometer, and sonar technologies. This team is integral to the Operation Tomorrow Space initiative, which aims to collect and integrate data into existing forecasting and modeling systems, thereby revolutionizing global weather intelligence. We are seeking a Senior Hardware Design Engineer to join our cutting-edge, multidisciplinary team, tasked with executing complex development programs that span various applications, including weather and climate remote sensing, navigation, and situational awareness. As a Senior Hardware Design Engineer, you will play a pivotal role in leading and contributing to advanced hardware development throughout all phases of the development cycle. This includes requirements gathering and definition, design, development, prototyping, implementation, verification, testing, integration, calibration, and documentation. You will collaborate closely with a multidisciplinary engineering team to define and implement features for the Software Defined Radar (SDR) that support both Space and Terrestrial Sensor missions. Your responsibilities will also involve developing and documenting hardware requirements and specifications for digital hardware and systems, as well as designing, implementing, simulating, and testing new hardware designs while planning and estimating the required tasks. Additionally, you will work in tandem with Systems and Radar engineers to verify feature implementations, ensuring that our hardware meets the highest standards of performance and reliability.
