- Perform link budget analysis, RF chain modelling and performance optimisation
- Design and integrate RF front-end solutions across UHF/VHF, S-band and X-band
- Define subsystem requirements and interfaces with systems and payload teams
- Support integration, verification and validation, including HIL and over-the-air testing
- Evaluate RF components, technologies and suppliers
- Explore onboard signal processing and data reduction for RF payloads
- Assess advanced RF sensing concepts,



including signal detection, classification and geolocation

What we’re looking for

- 5+ years of RF engineering experience, ideally within satellite, space or aerospace applications
- MSc or PhD in Electrical Engineering, RF/Microwave Engineering, Telecommunications or a related field
- Hands-on experience with UHF, S-band and/or X-band systems
- Experience with tools such as CST, ADS, HFSS or similar
- Practical knowledge of spectrum analysers, VNAs and RF test equipment
- Familiarity with modulation schemes such as GMSK, QPSK, 8PSK and DVB-S2
- Knowledge of communication protocols such as CSP and CCSDS
- RF payload, DSP, signal analysis or sensing experience is a strong advantage
- Experience with ECSS standards and space-grade RF qualification is a plus
