DIRECT HIRE

Requires: Green Card or US Citizen (per gov requirement)

Senior Satellite Systems Engineer to help us develop the next generation of satellite communications systems. The successful candidate will enjoy a rich and fulfilling career with a variety of responsibilities ranging across the entire life cycle, including: initial conceptual system design; analysis, simulation, and specification; implementation; integration and test; performance monitoring; and end-of-life transition to the next system. We are looking for someone with broad experience to work on our next generation LEO/MEO/GEO satellite communication systems, and a willingness to do even more.

Responsibilities:

Review internal or external requirements for satellite systems; refine or generate appropriate system-level requirements

Analyze, model, and simulate candidate designs.

Develop system level algorithms such as for power control, timing and frequency synchronization.

Write and review specifications, design documents, reports and presentations

Analyze system requirements and develop system architectures for RF and baseband subsystems.

Develop subsystem requirements, specifications and technical evaluations

Conduct link budgets analyses, block and signal level analyses, and, trade off studies

Analyze RF performance and conduct simulations and measurements to determine signal integrity, crosstalk, coupling, noise, insertion loss, return loss.

Develop algorithms for calibration of antenna subsystems in fixed and mobile user terminal installations

Develop constellation modeling and analyses for LEO/MEO/GEO satellite systems and conduct analyses against regulatory masks.

Document detailed designs and present them internally and to external customers

Requirements:

BSEE in electrical engineering with emphasis on signal analyses and RF/microwave engineering

15+ years expertise in communications systems theory and analysis including link budgets, signal propagation, phase noise, EVM, non-linear effects, etc.
