*Duration: [3 / 6 months, extendable based on programme milestones]*

*Experience: 2–3 years, open to associates with higher experience*

*Location: Bengaluru (on-engaging an Embedded & RF Engineer on a T&M; contract basis to support development, integration, and testing of embedded electronics and RF communication subsystems for CubeSat/small-satellite hardware. Work will be assigned incrementally against sprint-level tasking; billed hours are tracked and invoiced periodically (weekly/bi-weekly, per contract terms).

Note: Some assigned work falls under restricted-access programmes. Full scope, subsystem names, and technical requirements are disclosed only after execution of an NDA and any applicable security/access clearance as part of onboarding.

Key Responsibilities

Develop embedded firmware in C/C++ for microcontroller-based systems

Develop and debug interfaces using UART, SPI, I²C, GPIO and similar embedded peripherals

Perform hardware bring-up, firmware-hardware integration, and bench-level debugging

Support development and integration of RF communication hardware (transceivers, RF front-ends, antenna interfaces) — detailed specifications provided under NDA

Assist with communication protocol implementation and packet-handling software

Conduct RF/communication testing using standard lab equipment (VNA, spectrum analyser, signal generator, oscilloscope, power meter)





Support link-level validation and communication-system test campaigns

Prepare engineering notes/logs per ISPACEI documentation standards and participate in internal design/test reviews

Coordinate with OBC, ADCS, EPS, and Mechanical/Thermal teams on system-level integration issues

Required Skills

2–3 years hands-on embedded systems development experience

Solid Embedded C/C++

Solid understanding of microcontrollers, peripherals, interrupts, RTOS/bare-metal environments

STM32 or equivalent MCU experience preferred

Practical hardware debugging and bring-up experience

Working knowledge of RF communication fundamentals

Comfortable troubleshooting across hardware/firmware/RF boundaries

Git and standard embedded toolchain experience

Desirable

Prior exposure to CubeSat/SmallSat, UAV, SDR, or restricted-access communication systems

Familiarity with KiCad, Altium, MATLAB, Python, or RF simulation tools (ADS/HFSS/CST)

Engagement Terms

Contract type: T&M;

Access & confidentiality: NDA mandatory prior to task assignment; certain subsystem documentation, requirements, and test data are disclosed on a need-to-know basis only

IP: All work product, designs, and documentation developed under this engagement are the exclusive property of ISPACEI Satellite and Research Pvt. Ltd.

Termination: Either party may terminate with 15 days' notice To apply: Send resumes to [email protected]
