Role Overview and Responsibilities:
We are seeking an IoT Engineer – Satellite IoT & Data Relay Systems to support the design and deployment of SmallSat-based IoT data relay solutions. This role requires strong understanding of end-to-end IoT systems across space and ground segments and the ability to translate customer use cases into practical satellite-IoT architectures. The position is both highly technical and customer-facing, working closely with engineering, payload, and sales teams.
Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:
- Design and support end-to-end satellite IoT architectures covering devices, RF links, satellites, ground stations, and cloud platforms
- Optimize low-power, low-data-rate device-to-satellite communication under high latency and intermittent connectivity
- Interface with SmallSat/CubeSat payload teams, accounting for link budgets, orbital dynamics, power, and scheduling constraints
- Apply RF fundamentals including link budgets, interference, Doppler, antennas, and regulatory constraints
- Support ground segment and cloud integration, including data decoding, buffering, retries, and scalable ingestion pipelines
- Act as technical support for pre-sales activities, solution design, feasibility analysis, and customer discussions
- Assist with pilot deployments, PoCs, and field debugging of device, RF, and data issues
Candidate Requirements:
- Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electronics, Communication, Embedded Systems, Aerospace, or related fields
- 3+ years of experience in IoT systems (terrestrial or satellite)
- Strong understanding of embedded systems, RF communication, and networking (TCP/IP, MQTT, CoAP)
- Solid knowledge of satellite communication principles, LEO constraints, and ground station operations
- Experience with LoRa/LoRaWAN, NB-IoT/LTE-M, or similar low-power protocols is a plus
