Senior Wireless Communications Systems Engineer - E-Space
Saratoga, CA 95070
About the Job
Saratoga, CAE-Space US – Engineering, Manufacturing & Operations /Full-Time /On-siteReady to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services
We are building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system that will fundamentally change the design, economics, manufacturing and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to innovate space-based communications and deliver actionable intelligence that will expand global economies, protect space and our planet and enhance our overall quality of life
As a Senior Wireless Communication Systems Engineer, you will be responsible for modeling, simulating, and designing the physical layer modem for a LEO satellite constellation communication network
This role is critical for ensuring reliable and efficient data transmission in advanced satellite communication systems
In this role, you will leverage your expertise in system analysis, modem design, including time/frequency unite, FEC design, modulator, and demodulator in an advanced wireless communication system.This position will report to the Sr
Director of Product and System Integration, Silicon and you will work closely with systems, software, hardware, and test teams that are responsible for delivering the communications payload. This position is based in our Saratoga, CA office.What you will do:Modeling and SimulationDevelop and implement detailed mathematical models of physical layer communication systems for LEO satellite networksUse simulation tools to evaluate and optimize the performance of communication systems under various conditions and scenariosAnalyze the impact of various physical layer impairments on system performance and suggest mitigation techniquesDesign and DevelopmentDesign the architecture and algorithms for physical layer modems, including modulation, coding, synchronization, and channel estimationDevelop prototypes and conduct lab tests to validate the performance of the designed modemWork closely with hardware and software teams to ensure seamless integration of the physical layer modem with other system componentsPerformance AnalysisPerform detailed performance analysis of the designed communication system, including link budget analysis, throughput, latency, and error ratesIdentify and resolve performance bottlenecks and ensure the modem meets the required specifications and standardsDocumentation and ReportingDocument all design and development processes, simulation results, and performance evaluationsPrepare technical reports and presentations for internal and external stakeholdersStay updated with the latest advancements in satellite communication technologies and incorporate relevant innovations into the design processCollaboration and SupportCollaborate with cross-functional teams, including system architects, hardware engineers, and software developersProvide technical support and expertise during system integration and field trialsParticipate in design reviews, code reviews, and provide constructive feedbackWhat you bring to this role:Master’s or Ph.D
degree in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, or a related field10 years of experienceStrong background in communication theory, digital signal processing, and wireless communication systemsProficiency in modeling and simulation tools such as MATLAB, Simulink, or equivalentExperience in designing and developing physical layer modemsFamiliarity with satellite communication systems, particularly LEO networksExcellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently as well as in a team environmentStrong analytical and communication skills. Team player.Bonus points for the following:Strong knowledge of 3GPP standards, preferably 5GNRKnowledge of modern coding techniques and standards such as LDPC, Turbo Codes, or Polar CodesExperience with hardware implementation and testing of communication systemsFamiliarity with software-defined radio (SDR) platforms and toolsStrong programming skills in languages such as C/C++, Python, or VHDL/VerilogThis is a full time, exempt position, based out of our Saratoga office. The target base pay for this position is $150,000 - $180,000 annually. The total compensation packaged will be determined by various factors such as your relevant job-related knowledge, skills, and experience. We are redefining how satellites are designed, manufactured and used—so we’re looking for candidates with passion, deep knowledge and direct experience on LEO satellite component development, design and in-orbit activities
If that’s your experience – then we’ll be immediately wow-ed.E-Space is not currently able to provide employment sponsorship for candidates who do not hold work authorization for the location of this role.Why E-Space is right for you:As a member of our team, you will play a crucial role in driving our success. Our team members have a strong sense of dedication and responsibility; this includes a strong commitment to our mission to create an entirely new suite of global capabilities to improve lives, business efficiencies and build a smarter planet
This means that there will be times when extra hours, including nights and weekends, may be needed to meet critical deadlines and mission goals. In return, we offer a dynamic work environment with opportunities for professional growth and development and the chance to make a meaningful impact in a high-growth industry. We want you to make the most of your journey at E-Space
That’s why we support and invest in the physical, emotional and financial well-being of our team members and their families
Some of what you can expect when working at E-Space:• An opportunity to really make a difference• Sustainability at our core• Fair and honest workplace• Innovative thinking is encouraged• Competitive salaries• Continuous learning and development• Health and wellness care options• Financial solutions for the future
• Optional legal services (US only)• Paid holidays• Paid time off
