Are you ready to build the invisible highway connecting Earth to deep space?
The space industry is moving faster than ever, and we are leading the charge. We are building the future of space transportation—from green satellite propulsion to the world’s fastest reusable rocket-powered aircraft. But groundbreaking hardware in orbit is only as good as its link to the ground.
As our Satellite RF Communications Engineer, you will be the architect and operator of our critical RF infrastructure. From UHF to Ka-band and advanced radar systems, you are the one ensuring our data and signals fly clear and uninterrupted.
What You’ll Do
This isn't a desk job where you just monitor screens. You’ll blend deep, hands-on hardware engineering with strategic ground operations and spectrum management. Your focus:
-
The Master of Hardware: Lead the design, integration, and lifecycle management of our RF hardware systems. You’ll specify, source, and integrate flight-proven COTS components.
-
Ground Control: Own and run our in-house ground station infrastructure. You’ll also coordinate with and manage third-party network providers to guarantee maximum uptime, high-quality service, and seamless operations.
-
Test, Tweak, Triumph: Plan and execute rigorous RF testing, EMI characterization, link budget calculations, and interference analyses. You don't stop until the connection is flawless.
-
Spectrum & Regulations: Serve as our link to global regulatory bodies. You will lead or support ITU filings and spectrum coordination, collaborating with external partners like TU Delft to protect our frequencies.
Who You Are
An engineer who loves to get their hands dirty but never loses sight of the big picture.
-
You hold a Bachelor’s or Master’s in Electrical Engineering, RF Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related field.
-
You bring strong, hands-on experience with RF systems across multiple frequency bands (UHF through Ka-band).
-
You have experience operating or managing satellite or radar ground stations (this is a major plus).
-
You are familiar with ITU processes, spectrum filing, and international RF regulations.
-
You are a natural collaborator who can easily translate complex RF requirements to systems, software, and mission teams.
