Deine Rolle im Team

  • We are seeking a Senior UHF Payload Systems Engineer to lead the technical definition, de-risking, and validation of UHF services hosted on MEO satellites within the IRIS² programme.
  • Within the IRIS² MEO Space Segment team, the incumbent will contribute to the definition of the end-to-end MEO UHF service architecture by developing space segment technical specifications as well as satcom system analyses for the end-to-end service.
  • The incumbent will collaborate to define the derisking activities with the selected supplier and monitor the derisking roadmap execution.
  • The position requires a strong system engineering mindset, combining RF and satcom expertise with experience in satellite payload design and testing, ideally in UHF satcom systems.
  • Contribute to the definition of the end-to-end MEO UHF service architecture.
  • Translate UHF mission and service requirements into system and payload-level specifications accounting for satellite constellation constraints.
  • Contribute to design trade-offs (coverage, power, SWaP, performance) and payload architecture.
  • Perform system-level performance analyses for UHF services.
  • Define interfaces with spacecraft platform, main payload, user ground segment and mission control segment.
  • Interface with payload providers, terminal vendors, and subsystem suppliers for statement of work negotiation, technical specifications and test plans.
  • Define and support integration, verification, and validation (IVV) activities for UHF services (unit-level testing, payload AIT, IOT).
  • Contribute to development of simulation tools and digital twins for payload performance and IVV.
