Team & Role:
You will be joining the Satellite team and working on building the Satellite Payload. You will own the system-level design of the payload data chain, covering high-speed sensor interfaces, onboard processing, storage, and downlink, ensuring the system meets throughput, latency, power, and reliability requirements across all mission phases.
The role involves working across the full development lifecycle, from architecture definition and budgeting, through board bring-up and embedded software definition, to integration, qualification testing, and in-orbit operations support. This position requires robust first-principles thinking, comfort working across the hardware and software boundary, and the ability to translate complex system requirements into practical engineering solutions.

Responsibilities :

Own the system-level architecture of the onboard compute and data handling chain, from sensor output through processing and storage to downlink.
Define the compute architecture and processing partitioning across GPU, FPGA/SoC, and general-purpose compute modules,



balancing workload, power, and thermal constraints.
Specify, integrate, and validate high-speed data interfaces including LVDS/SerDes, SpaceWire, Ethernet, PCIe, SPI, RS485, and CAN.
Perform throughput sizing and bottleneck analysis across the end-to-end data path.
Define the storage and flash management strategy, covering capacity, sustained write performance, endurance, and data retention across mission life.
Define the software architecture and ConOps for the embedded system, including sensor data integration and onboard processing pipelines.
Drive board bring-up and software enablement including Linux kernel configuration, GPU interfaces, memory management, PCI/Ethernet subsystems, device tree modification, and Yocto/PetaLinux builds.
Define and implement TM/TC handling, task scheduling, health monitoring, FDIR, and in-orbit reprogramming strategies.
