Satellite Platform TT&C Systems Engineer

Job Category: Engineering
Location: Quebec, Canada
Employment Type: Contract
Location Terms: Remote

We’re hiring a Platform TT&C Systems Engineer to support the design, development, and integration of satellite communication systems. This role focuses on Tracking, Telemetry & Command (TT&C) — the critical communication link between spacecraft and mission control.

If you're passionate about RF systems, spacecraft communications, and hands-on testing, this opportunity puts you at the core of cutting-edge space programs.


What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Design TT&C systems across various frequency bands

  • Conduct system-level link budget analyses

  • Review antenna scattering analyses and contribute technical insights

  • Develop and maintain engineering documentation: requirements, compliance statements, verification matrices, and design descriptions

  • Prepare interface control documents (ICDs) for TT&C integration with other platform subsystems

  • Troubleshoot TT&C issues in integrated satellite environments and Platform Engineering Models (FlatSat)

  • Ensure seamless interoperability between the platform TT&C subsystem and payload

  • Contribute to the overall communications Concept of Operations (ConOps)

  • Participate in milestone reviews (EQSR, SRR, PDR, CDR) with internal and external stakeholders


What You’ll Bring:

  • A bachelor's degree in electrical engineering

  • 5+ years of experience in RF or satellite communications systems

  • Strong background in RF engineering

  • Hands-on experience with communications subsystems including transceivers, couplers, filters, and antennas

  • Familiarity with communication standards and regulations (ITU, CCSDS, ETSI)


Nice to Have:

  • Understanding of space environment and satellite communications

  • Experience with satellite tracking and ranging systems

  • Proven ability to work independently and lead on technical tasks

  • Strong communication skills in English; French language skills are a plus

  • Interest or experience in mentoring junior engineers
