Senior System Engineer (SATCOM)

We’re looking for a Senior System Engineer to lead end to end system definition, integration, and validation of satellite communication (SATCOM) solutions within our radio development portfolio

You’ll translate operational needs into robust architecture, requirements, and interfaces; orchestrate multi disciplinary trade offs across RF, modem, embedded SW/FW, networking, and mechanical domains

and drive lab/field integration toward production readiness

What You’ll Do

Own system engineering across the lifecycle—CONOPS, use cases, requirements, ICDs, architecture, and design reviews, through integration, verification, and qualification

Collaborate across disciplines (RF, software, networking, cyber, mechanical, etc.) and with product/program teams to balance performance, cost, schedule, and risk

Author SE deliverables: system specs, ICDs, test plans/procedures, acceptance criteria, user/ops considerations, and contribution to certification/qualification documentation

Plan and manage lab and field trials: bring up, integration, performance & environmental testing; analyze results and drive corrective actions through cross functional teams

What You’ll Bring

Deep SATCOM expertise (GEO/MEO/LEO concepts, terminals vs. hubs, antennas/pointing & tracking, modem/waveform fundamentals, link budgets, BER/EB/N0, availability)

Proven system engineering experience delivering complex, multi disciplinary communication systems from early concept through integration and acceptance

Excellent technical writing and communication skills; comfortable leading reviews and driving decisions across stakeholders

Hands on with RF & modem/DSP fundamentals (filters, modulations such as QPSK/QAM, FEC, synchronization, timing) and system modeling (e.g., MATLAB/Simulink) – an advantage

MANET experience (mobile ad hoc routing behaviors in contested, low capacity, high dynamics environments; protocol familiarity such as OLSR/BABEL/DSR; performance trade offs). – an advantage

Tactical networks & communications knowledge (waveforms, soldier/vehicular/airborne radios, interoperability, voice/data services, LPI/LPD/AJ considerations). – an advantage

Tooling: MATLAB/Simulink, OPNET (or equivalent), scripting (Python), RF test equipment and automation – an advantage

Qualifications

BSc in Electrical/Communications/Computer Engineering (or related)

MSc is an advantage

Five years in system engineering for communications systems (satellite and/or tactical radio)

Eligibility for security clearance

**Only suitable applications will be considered
