Space assets and services are not fully monetized. Commercial payloads on board small satellites, like cameras, sensors, and antennas, work for less than 20% of the time spent in orbit due to limitations in small satellite buses. At Revolv Space, we are solving this problem by designing, manufacturing, and testing the next generation of critical components enabling continuous payload operations and full monetization of space assets.
We start with tackling the power limitations of small satellites by providing a fail-safe and autonomous Solar Array Drive Assembly for small satellites.

To achieve this mission, we areseeking a PVA & Electrical Engineer to join our team. This role is for a hands‑on expert who will drive the development, assembly, and testing of our spacecraft's solar array systems. You will work closely with both the AIT and product development teams.

Starting month: October 2026
Working language: English (also the language of the recruitment process)
Working location: Turin, Italy

Your mission:
- Lead the PVA process development, qualification and execution;




- Design and develop jigs, fixtures, and tools for the precise alignment and integration of photovoltaic cells;
- Conduct a variety of non‑destructive and destructive tests to validate the quality of welded and bonded joints;
- Design and analyze the electrical circuits of the solar array, including stringing of cells, diode placement, and harness routing;
- Perform analyses to predict electrical performance under various space conditions (e.g., thermal cycles, radiation exposure);
- Develop and implement test plans for electrical performance, including I-V (current-voltage) curve characterization;
- Build prototypes of solar panel sections for testing;
- Execute environmental tests, such as thermal vacuum (TVAC) testing and vibration testing, to simulate launch and on‑orbit conditions;
- Conduct performance testing, including solar simulator testing, to measure power output.

What you bring:
