Job description

Overview As part of the development of a new and advanced communication system we are seeking a senior data link communication research engineer with hands on experience in embedded system and software implementation. The candidate will analyze communication link properties, design the SW architecture and implement L2 layer function on an embedded SoC to contribute to Spire's proprietary RF communication stack that builds upon industry standards such as CCSDS TM/TC and ETSI DVB-S2. Responsibilities Develop data link layer firmware for satellite communication systems, including communication protocols, L2 software, and low-level drivers. Actively participate in cross-functional team meetings and adopt problem-solving approaches. * Develop and assess L2 methods for space-to-space and space-to-ground links * Analyze and implement communication protocols (CCSDS TM/TC, COP-1, DVB-S2X, GSE, etc.). Research and integrate state-of-the-art industry solutions. * Conduct system and link-level studies to evaluate RF link performance in space networks. Contribute to requirements definition and interface design. * Design, optimize, validate, and test link-level proprietary implementations. * Implement and optimize software for L2 layer: o Design of firmware architecture, from top- down to block-level, integrating and interfacing with FPGA-based functions. o Program in C/C++, assembly, and core-specific instructions to maximize performance and data rates. o Collaborate closely with the L3-L5 team as well as with the FPGA engineers for seamless integration and cross-layer optimization. * Develop embedded firmware in bare-metal, RTOS or Petalinux (Yocto) environments. o Interface with COTS equipment, physical layer, and upper layers. * Contribute to low-level drivers, L2-L3 interfaces, L1 function management and scheduling, and BSP. * Collaborate with the HW and FPGA teams, lead transmission link design, support early HW development, and actively participate in HW, A leading engineering consultancy in Glasgow is seeking a Principal Utilities Engineer to work on landmark projects.
