We're hiring a Platform RF/EMC Systems Engineer to join a high-impact team working on next-generation satellite platforms. In this role, you'll ensure electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) across complex RF environments, bridging communications payloads with platform subsystems.

If you're a specialist in EMC testing, RF system integration, and satellite-level analysis, this opportunity offers the chance to make a direct impact on mission-critical hardware performance.

What You'll Be Doing:
  • Perform EMC analyses and interpret unit-level EMC test reports
  • Analyze communication payload RF transmitter/receiver data and recommend design improvements to ensure EMC with platform subsystems
  • Develop system-level EMC test plans and lead satellite-level EMC testing
  • Support grounding, shielding, and wiring harness design for EMC compliance
  • Troubleshoot RF/EMC issues in integrated satellite systems and Platform Engineering Models (FlatSat)
  • Contribute to systems engineering documentation: requirements specs, verification matrices, design descriptions, and compliance statements
  • Participate in key program reviews (EQSR, SRR, PDR, CDR) with internal teams and external stakeholders
What You'll Bring:
  • A bachelor's degree in electrical or aerospace engineering
  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in RF and/or EMC engineering
  • Extensive experience in large-scale, system-level EMC testing
  • Familiarity with unit-level EMC testing based on international standards
  • Strong systems engineering foundation, including digital, RF, and analog design knowledge
  • Experience with satellite wiring harness design and signal routing strategies
Nice to Have:
  • Understanding of space environments and satellite communications
  • Self-motivated with the ability to work independently in fast-paced engineering environments
  • Leadership qualities or experience mentoring junior engineers
  • Excellent communication skills in English; French language skills are a plus
