At NewOrbit Space, our mission is to engineer the lowest orbiting satellites on Earth to rapidly advance global connectivity and insight. We are currently building satellites that can operate at an altitude of just 200 km - one-third that of conventional satellites. Thanks to our propulsion system AURA, we can compensate for the atmospheric drag at ultra-low altitudes. Please note that as we prepare for our maiden satellite mission, we are in a critical growth phase. That pace means that our roles will often require stretches of work beyond standard office hours. Responsibilities <ul><li>RF System Design &amp; Integration: Own the end-to-end design of the satellite's RF systems, including both transmit and receive chains for telemetry, tracking, control (TT&amp;C), and payload communication links.</li><li>Link Budget Analysis: Develop and maintain detailed RF link budgets for all mission phases and orbital regimes, including low and ultra-low Earth orbits.</li><li>Antenna Selection &amp; Development: Design, simulate, or select antennas suitable for small satellite platforms, balancing performance, size, and thermal constraints.</li><li>Testing &amp; Validation: Lead testing campaigns including RF compatibility tests, over-the-air validation, and pre-flight functional verification of RF subsystems.</li><li>Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with the systems, avionics, thermal, and mechanical teams to ensure RF systems are robustly integrated within the satellite architecture.</li></ul>Fundamental Requirements <ul><li>Educational Background: Advanced degree (MSc, MEng, or PhD) in Electrical Engineering, Telecommunications, Aerospace Engineering, or a related field, with a focus on RF or microwave systems.</li><li>Industry Experience: Minimum of 3 years of experience designing and implementing RF systems in a satellite or aerospace context.</li><li>Technical Expertise: <ul><li>Strong understanding of RF components (LNAs, filters, mixers, power amplifiers, etc.)</li><li>Proficiency with RF tools such as CST, HFSS, ADS, and MATLAB</li><li>Familiarity with SDR platforms and relevant communication protocols (e.g., CCSDS, S-band, X-band, UHF)</li></ul></li></ul>Why NewOrbit Space? <ul><li>Pioneering Space Technology - You'll contribute to launching groundbreaking technology into space. Your work on our revolutionary ion propulsion system and ULEO satellite platform will redefine satellite operations and disrupt traditional LEO operations.</li><li>Unmatched Ownership and Impact - You'll experience a level of ownership that's rare in the space industry. You will participate in the full lifecycle of satellite technology.</li><li>Equity and Competitive Salary - You'll receive not just a competitive salary but also company ownership stakes.
