Wanna join the adventure?
 
As an RF Systems Engineer at Orbitworks, you will play a pivotal role in the integration of RF subsystems for our high-reliability satellite systems. You work with our team to collaboratively develop, integrate, and test sub-system and system-level solutions for our satellites. Your expertise will be critical in ensuring the success of our space mission.
 
You’ll join a talented, multi-disciplinary team working on the latest space technology, where your contributions will directly shape the future of space missions. This is an exciting opportunity to innovate, collaborate, and make a significant impact on mission-critical systems.
  • System-Level RF Architecture & Design -Contribute to the definition of end-to-end RF system architecture and requirements, ensuring compatibility with mission constraints and performance goals.
  • End-to-End Performance Analysis - Perform RF link budget analysis and system-level trade-offs to evaluate performance under various mission scenarios.
  • RF inter-compatibility Analysis - Analysis to verify the absence of interference between new RF H/W and existing Platform RF subsystems.
  • Requirements Engineering / Traceability - Support requirements definition, flow-down, and traceability from mission-level needs to RF subsystem specifications.
  • Test Campaign Support - Support the execution of RF test campaigns with our AIT teams, including test planning, documentation, and reporting of verification results.
  • Technical management of Payload development - provide technical oversight, direction, and leadership to RF Payloads developed by customers or suppliers.
  • Cross-functional Communication - Act as a technical interface between the broader Engineering and AIT teams to ensure smooth integration and alignment with program objectives.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field. Master’s degree preferred.
  • A minimum of 3 years experience in RF Payload design or Satellite-level RF design.
  • Experience with simulation tools for RF analysis. Use of Ansys HFSS preferred.
  • Experience integrating and debugging RF H/W, using common RF test equipment such as spectrum analyzers, signal generators etc.
  • Skilled at challenging customer needs and sizing RF missions (e.g., link budgets, noise figures).
  • Possess strong communication and organizational skills.
  • System-level thinking and approach to problem-solving.
  • Familiarity with design principles related to EMI shielding, grounding, and RF signal integrity.
  • Knowledge of S-band, L-band and X-band frequency communications.
  • Ability to develop scripts and low-level software, ie. using Python for debugging and test purposes.
  • Expertise in RF sensing (SIGINT/ELINT) mission design for the commercial and/or defence market and/or in telecommunication RF missions (e.g., Direct to Device, Broadcast, PNT, IoT).
  • Involvement in the full satellite lifecycle, from design, manufacture & test, to in-orbit operation.
