Full job description

Job description

Position: Antenna Software Engineer

Employment Type: Full-time

Location: Harwell Campus, Didcot, Oxford, OX11 0QX

Satraka is on a mission to connect the unconnected and serve the underserved with its innovative, cutting-edge tracking- and multi-beam antenna technology, providing broadband internet connections via LEO/MEO satellites, HAPS and fixed wireless access networks.

Antenna is an exciting and challenging subject right at the core of all wireless telecommunication systems. This is particularly true in nascent, yet fast-growing high-data-rate broadband internet services provided by LEO/MEO satellites or HAPS, where both antenna performance, reliability and costs are put to the test.

Based at Harwell Science and Innovation Campus - the UK's Space Cluster, Satraka enjoys a highly dynamic and exciting environment and access to a range of world-class facilities & expertise such as RAL Space, Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and Satellite Applications Catapult.

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Embedded Software Engineer to join our dynamic engineering team. In this role, you will be responsible for designing, developing, testing, and maintaining embedded software solutions for a variety of innovative tracking antennas. You will work closely with hardware engineers and cross-functional teams to deliver optimized, reliable, and high-performance embedded systems.

Main duties

Working alongside RF and mechanical engineering, providing embedded software solutions for satellite acquisition, tracking, antenna control and multiple network managements
Responsible for full life cycle of product development—definition of software architecture and embedded systems, analysis, firmware and code development, system integration, test and verification, debug, optimisation and delivery
Documentation writing for design, analysis, integration and test
Provide expertise to Business Development team in preparing technical proposals
Interpret and negotiate technical requirements, define solutions and trade-offs with customers
Manage work schedule, resources and risks to ensure quality, on-time and on-cost delivery
Work closely with the Project Manager(s) to ensure successful completion of overall project

Skills and Experience

Essential

Strong bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field
Demonstrable embedded software development experience in a commercial or industrial environment, taking firmware from bring-up through to a deployable product
Strong C/C++ for resource-constrained targets, including bare-metal drivers and an understanding of the compile/link pipeline (linker scripts, startup code, memory maps). Python or similar scripting for tooling and test is a plus
Hands-on experience with ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers (e.g. STM32) and/or DSPs; comfortable with datasheets, reference manuals and register-level work
Practical experience with serial communication protocols: UART, SPI and I²C, including DMA-driven transfers. CAN or Ethernet an advantage
Proficient with embedded debugging and bring-up tools: JTAG/SWD debuggers, oscilloscopes and logic analysers
Familiarity with real-time operating systems (e.g. FreeRTOS), multitasking and the basics of safe inter-task / shared-memory communication
Comfortable designing electronics during board bring-up and debug
Innovative thinking and able to translate technical requirements into robust design solutions on own initiative, and to critique own ideas
Pragmatic, logical problem solver, finds simple solutions to complex problems and can explain them to a non-software audience
Able to pick up new technical concepts quickly
Excellent written and verbal technical English, including presentation skills

Desirable

Knowledge of telecom, satcom and tracking-antenna systems
Experience with GNSS receivers, RTK, IMUs and sensor-fusion techniques (e.g. Kalman / EKF)
DSP fundamentals and fixed-point arithmetic (e.g. CMSIS-DSP)
PCB design and layout experience (e.g. KiCad), including multi-layer and RF-aware layouts
Familiarity with RF front-end components (LNAs, detectors, power measurement) and basic RF concepts
Version control with Git (including submodules) and reproducible/containerised build toolchains

Personal

Good interpersonal skills
Self-motivated to meet objectives
Good team player, ability to work both alone and in teams as required by projects
Ability to work within defined timescales to meet programme milestones
Ability to work on several projects at any one time
Driven by technical challenges, problem solving and practical implementation of new ideas
Willingness to learn and share knowledge with other members of the team, to go extra-mile
Good team player with the ability to build effective relationships at all levels
Ability to plan and organise workload across multiple projects ensuring deadlines are met
Quality mindset with good attention to detail
