This is a unique opportunity to be at the forefront of the industry while collaborating with a highly skilled and dynamic team. If you are passionate about satellite technology, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to make a meaningful impact, we want to hear from you.

About the Opportunity

We are looking for a Senior System Integration Test Engineer to join our growing team. In this role, you will design and execute test cases for advanced SatCom user terminals, ensuring optimal performance and reliability.

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in SatCom, experience in executing test cases, and a proactive approach to problem-solving. This role is joining an experienced team that needs someone at an expert level who will add to the team with their experience, collaboration skills, and innovative thinking.

Responsibilities

Main Responsibilities:

Translate product requirements and key features into test plans and detailed test procedures.
Set up test equipment and execute test cases across various phases, including system integration, OTA validation, and engineering field testing.
Integrate and test the complete satellite user terminal, including active phased array antennas.
Interface with customers during Engineering Field Testing (EFT), developing test plans, running test cases, preparing reports, and coordinating feedback.
Support Limited Availability (LA) and General Availability (GA) product phases, ensuring seamless transitions and issue resolution.
Write automated scripts for system and component testing (while scripting experience is a plus, it is not a deal-breaker for this role).
Troubleshoot complex technical issues in a fast-paced and evolving environment.
Manage test case tracking and validation against requirements.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including engineering and external development partners.
Assist with product deployment and certification efforts.
Travel to customer and EFT sites as needed (up to 15% travel based on project needs).

10+ years of SatCom test experience with a track record in system integration.
Proven expertise in Antenna User Terminals and RF/microwave technologies.
Demonstrated ability to troubleshoot and diagnose system failures in a methodical manner.

Experience with customer acceptance testing, interfacing with customers, and field support is a major plus.
Experience working with test management tools and Microsoft Office.

What We Are Looking For

A problem solver who can think outside the box and tackle complex system integration challenges.
A highly skilled test engineer with a hands-on approach and experience in executing structured test plans.
A collaborative team player who can work effectively with cross-functional teams and external partners.
Someone with initiative and leadership potential, capable of adding expertise and strategic thinking to the team.
A candidate who stays up to date with industry trends and is eager to learn new technologies.
