Ready to make connectivity from space universally accessible, secure and actionable? Then you’ve come to the right place!

E-Space is bridging Earth and space to enable hyper-scaled deployments of space-powered Internet of Things (IoT) solutions and services. We are fundamentally changing the design, economics, manufacturing, coverage limitations and service delivery associated with traditional satellite and terrestrial IoT systems.

By building a highly-advanced low Earth orbit (LEO) space system—with a unique antenna design, highly sustainable spacecraft system and low-cost, small portable end-user devices—we can extend global satellite coverage, capacity and connectivity beyond legacy space services to provide a new kind of IoT platform that lets users sense, track, connect and act on information gathered, anywhere.

We’re intentional, we’re unapologetically curious and we’re 100% committed to saving space, protecting our planet and turning connectivity into actionable intelligence.

What is the role:

As a Senior Software Engineer, you will be responsible as aS/W Developer contributing to the completion and deployment of our 5G SW for both 3GPP Rel 15/16 5G gNB and UE. The SW spans from PHY up to PDCP/RLC and RRM at gNB and to NAS at UE side. In this role, you will leverage your 12 years expertise by starting with either the PHY or Protocol Stack SW development domain, and eventually have the opportunity to cover both SW areas.

• Ability to develop and analyze 5G Algorithm by means of Matlab and/or C language
• Ability to analyze and develop 5G gNB scheduler implementation
• Ability to analyze and develop 5G PHY layer gNB and UE features in SW based on abstract I/F description
• Ability to develop SW I/F toward embedded accelerators and/or HW I/Fs
• Ability to implement SW test cases suitable for verifying the to be implemented 5G feature
• Ability to generate and verify 5G test vectors on PHY and Protocol Stack level
• Ability to operate PHY 5G test equipment such as Agilent
• Ability to program Embedded SW in C
• Understand the constraints of Real Time SW
• Ability to program C/C
• Ability to write Make files
• Ability to write scripts in languages such as Perl or Python
• Ability to understand Intel, ARM, DSP HW, I/Fs and other accelerators on various SoC platforms
• Ability to understand and work with ARM and DSP architecture
• Ability to use embedded Linux and DSP
• OS
• Ability to work with Teamcity or equivalent build server
• Ability to work with JIRA or equivalent Issue Tracking System
• Ability to handle SW within a gitlab repository
