The Mission of the Manufacturing Engineer
Your main focus will be to ensure that electronics prototypes are built correctly, efficiently, and on schedule, enabling ICEYE’s engineering teams to iterate quickly and with confidence.
This role acts as the bridge between design and manufacturing, translating engineering intent into manufacturable hardware by owning prototype execution, resolving issues early, and maintaining close technical collaboration with suppliers.
By enforcing high-quality documentation, proactively managing risks, and continuously improving prototype and NPI processes, the Manufacturing Engineer directly contributes to faster development cycles, higher build quality, and smoother transitions from prototype to production.
ICEYE delivers space-based intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) capabilities to governments and allied nations. This includes sovereign and turnkey ISR missions leveraging ICEYE’s world-leading synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite technology, as well as access to data from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation. These capabilities enable partners to detect and respond to critical changes anywhere on Earth with unprecedented speed and accuracy – day or night and in any weather, supported by ultra high-resolution imagery and high-frequency revisits.
As a trusted partner for defense, intelligence, security, and maritime domain awareness, ICEYE’s near real-time data creates a tactical advantage for mission-critical operations. Designed for dual use, the platform also serves civil protection and commercial users for natural-catastrophe intelligence, insurance, maritime monitoring (including oil-spill detection), and finance, contributing to global security and community resilience.
