Wireless Engineer - Satellite

About this role

Lynk seeks a Wireless Engineer to design and implement feeder link modems for satellite spacecraft and ground systems. You'll develop DSP algorithms and wireless protocols, delivering production code for software-defined radio platforms while validating performance through simulation and RF lab testing.

What you'll do

• Design and implement DSP algorithms and wireless protocols at PHY and MAC layers
• Develop production code for SDR platforms using single-board computers and FPGAs
• Validate modem performance using RF equipment, spectrum analyzers, and channel simulators
• Build test automation frameworks and manage CI/CD pipelines for modem testing
• Perform link budget analysis and evaluate spacecraft radio and ground station selection
• Collaborate with RF, electronics, and hardware teams to integrate and debug payload systems

What they're looking for

• Digital signal processing (DSP) and communication theory
• C/C++ and Python programming
• MATLAB for algorithm modeling and simulation
• Software-defined radio (SDR) implementation
• Linux systems and command-line tools
• RF lab equipment operation (spectrum analyzers, signal generators)
• Communication standards (DVB-S2/DVB-S2X, TCP/IP, Ethernet)
• HDL languages (SystemVerilog, VHDL) - preferred
