Ground-to-Space Telecoms Architect: RF & Link Budget

Thales Group; Latina; In loco; EUR 45.000 - 65.000; Tempo pieno

Descrizione del lavoro

Thales Group seeks an RF/space systems engineer to deliver expert engineering for end-to-end space systems and ground segment subsystems, from design to operations. You will define Ground Tools to boost performance and support secure TTC frameworks, translating goals into concrete component requirements.

You will work on cutting-edge telecom and satellite projects within an international team, shaping technical solutions for reliable missions and demonstrations, with ~50% travel to Vigna di

Competenze

• Master in Engineering.
• 2-4 years of RF engineering experience, preferably in the space industry.
• Knowledge of payload architecture, RF equipment, repeaters and antennas.
• Link budget, capacity assessment, waveform and ModCod understanding (5G, DVB).
• Familiarity with SW design tools (STK, Satsoft, MATLAB); programming knowledge (Java/C) is a plus.
• Autonomous, proactive, and able to work in a diverse international team.
• Willingness to travel and work on customer premises (Vigna di Valle) ~50%.
• Excellent analytical, organizational, and reporting abilities.
• Strong communication and team collaboration abilities.

Mansioni

• Contribute to E2E system design and analyses across the full lifecycle of space projects
• Define and validate Ground Tools to enhance end-to-end performance (e.g., interference detection, mission planning, signal analysis)
• Perform system/subsystem performance analyses and derive component requirements (e.g., link budget, BER, phase noise)
• Support secure TTC system aspects and SW requirements validation
• Oversee integration, testing, and quality control of RF payload equipment and subsystems
