Job SummaryElveo is developing cellular-based space payloads and seeks a Wireless Engineer to design and implement air interfaces for Elveo's satellite-direct-to-phone services. This role involves developing DSP, optimizing the physical layer procedures, and implementing custom resource scheduling algorithms. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in wireless communications, signal processing, and RAN development to drive innovation in next-generation satellite-based mobile networks.
Core ResponsibilitiesAs a Wireless Engineer, your core responsibilities are as follows
- Design and implement physical - PHY and medium access control - MAC layer algorithms and procedures for satellite communication links.
- Develop baseband modems on software defined radio - SDR platforms.
- Evaluate the performance of algorithms in simulation and on the target platform.
- Develop test software and drivers to support unit, integration, and system testing of all base station software functions.
- Perform link budget analysis of LTE and 5G system between satellite and UEs.
- Work with other team members to benchmark payload software applications.
Qualifications- A Master's degree or higher in Electrical Engineering, Computer Science, or related field.
- Deep understanding of communication theory and signal processing related algorithms design, such as filter design, clock recovery, signal detection, channel estimation and equalization, channel coding, MIMO.
- Strong knowledge of software defined radios - SDRs and their implementation.
- Strong knowledge of the 3GPP standards, including LTE and 5G PHY, MAC, and RRC specifications.
- Hands-on experience in lab testing & characterization.
- Experience with MATLAB, Python, C or C++ for algorithm development, modeling, and simulation.
- Experience using test equipment like signal generators, spectrum analyzers, etc.
- Experience with implementing DSP algorithms in HDL, such as SystemVerilog, VHDL is a plus.
