Lynk
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
