Spacecraft design.
Engineered in
the real world.

Own end-to-end HTS payload architecture for multi-beam missions, from antenna and repeater concepts through beam planning, frequency reuse and performance budgets. You will lead payload sizing for Fibersat-1-class systems and ESA Phase A/B studies, turning technical trades into clear decisions for clients and delivery partners.

Requirements: 10+ years in payload or RF systems engineering; deep HTS and multi-beam design experience; confident link-budget and interference analysis; familiarity with ECSS methods; practical Ka- or Ku-band heritage.

Shape reflector and fed-array concepts, beam-forming networks and wideband RF chains for high-capacity payloads. This is a principal engineering role: you will set the technical direction, test assumptions early and work alongside systems colleagues to carry promising designs from analysis into qualification planning.

Requirements: 10+ years in RF or antenna design; CST, HFSS or equivalent electromagnetic analysis experience; hands-on antenna test or AIT exposure; multi-beam or flight heritage preferred; concise technical communication with customers and suppliers.

Coordinate mass, power, thermal and link budgets across spacecraft programs, with a particular focus on the trade space created by new-generation HTS payloads. You will frame system architecture, lead cross-discipline reviews and keep assumptions traceable as concepts mature into procurement and integration decisions.

Requirements: 12+ years in spacecraft systems engineering; GEO or comparable program architecture experience; ECSS design knowledge; strong budget and trade-study practice; credible leadership across payload, platform and mission disciplines.

Build design confidence for novel payload electronics through radiation margin analysis, parts selection and assurance planning. You will assess single-event effects, EMI/EMC and supplier evidence, then translate those findings into practical design actions for European R&D programs and flight-qualified hardware.

Requirements: 8+ years in radiation effects or EEE parts engineering; radiation transport and analysis tools; single-event-effect assessment experience; knowledge of European suppliers and ESA or D-side review practice; disciplined documentation habits.

Bring commercial structure to ambitious technology programs. You will develop ESA and institutional tender responses, support negotiations and bid management, and connect pricing, contractual risk and technical maturity so that high-value R&D work is positioned for sound execution.

Requirements: Space-sector finance or contracts background; ESA or institutional bid experience; sharp commercial judgment; comfort with pricing and risk analysis; working knowledge of European regulatory and EAR/ITAR considerations.

Lead the verification path from system definition into assembly, integration and test. You will shape verification plans, coordinate external test campaigns and investigate results with enough technical depth to turn anomalies into useful evidence for the program team and customer.

Requirements: 10+ years in AIT or verification; leadership of test campaigns; environmental test experience across thermal, vibration or EMC; rigorous fault-finding and data assessment; confidence working with primes, laboratories and subsystem suppliers.
