Lynk is the inventor of satellite direct to device (D2D) technology, and has the world’s only commercial license from the FCC to operate a commercial D2D system. Today, Lynk allows mobile network operators' subscribers to send and receive text messages to and from space via standard unmodified, mobile devices. Lynk’s service has been tested and proven on all seven continents, has regulatory approvals in more than 30 countries and is currently being deployed commercially based on more than 40 MNO commercial service contracts covering approximately 50 countries.

Our technology will enable all 8 billion people on the planet to stay connected with the existing standard phone in their pocket. Everywhere. No matter what.

By joining Lynk, you will have the opportunity to directly touch the lives of billions. Your mission will be to bring mobile broadband to billions, pull hundreds of millions out of poverty, and save countless lives.

As an Electrical Engineering Intern at Lynk, you will support the design, development, and testing of electronics and RF hardware used in Lynk’s nanosatellite bus and communications payload. Working closely with experienced Electrical Engineers, you will contribute to schematic-level design, circuit board bring-up, lab testing, and iterative integration activities across satellite bus and payload subsystems. This role provides hands-on exposure to real spacecraft hardware, lab environments, and cross-disciplinary engineering work.
