Senior Satellite Systems Designer – Payload Lead
Posted last month
About the role
- Technical leader in systems engineering supporting satellite and space-system programs at Kepler Communications. Helping deliver critical subsystems and verification campaigns for missions.
Responsibilities
- As a Senior Systems Engineer, you will be a technical leader contributing across multiple satellite and space-system programs.
- You will help deliver critical subsystems, system-level work packages, verification campaigns, and technical deliverables that roll up into larger missions.
- You will draw on experience across multiple lifecycle phases, including requirements definition, architecture development, design, integration, verification, commissioning, and operations.
- The role requires the ability to quickly integrate into new projects, establish technical clarity, and lead engineering execution in areas where requirements, interfaces, risks, and trade-offs must be actively managed.
- You will act as a bridge between disciplines, ensuring that requirements are understood, interfaces are controlled, risks are visible, and technical decisions are made with appropriate consideration for mission performance, cost, schedule, reliability, and operational needs.
- Success in this role comes from the ability to apply systems engineering judgment, right-size processes to the maturity of the work, and keep teams aligned on delivery.
- This role is suited for an experienced systems engineer who can operate with autonomy, mentor junior and intermediate engineers, communicate effectively with internal and external stakeholders, and deliver high-impact technical outcomes across a multi-program environment.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s degree in Systems Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Physics, or a related technical field
- 7+ years of experience in systems engineering, spacecraft development, payload engineering, mission systems engineering, or a similar technical leadership role
- First-hand experience with payload-level engineering, accommodation, integration, verification, or operations planning for space systems or complex mission instrumentation
- Experience with one or more payload domains such as optical payloads, RF payloads, SIGINT payloads, radar systems, remote sensing instruments, communications payloads, or related sensor systems
- Strong understanding of payload-to-spacecraft interfaces and their impact on spacecraft design, including mechanical, electrical, thermal, data, RF, software, command and telemetry, ground, and operational interfaces
- Experience working with external suppliers, customers, or partners in a technical interface role, including coordination of technical deliverables, supplier inputs, test plans, interface documentation, and compliance evidence
- Experience developing or reviewing requirements, ICDs, CONOPS, verification plans, test procedures, compliance matrices, and technical documentation
- Strong mission analysis capability, including operational scenario development, coverage analysis, duty-cycle analysis, and translation of payload operations into power, thermal, data, pointing, downlink, and mission performance impacts
- Demonstrated willingness and ability to leverage AI-assisted engineering and development tools to improve productivity, design quality, and innovation while adapting to evolving technologies and best practices
- Experience supporting payload integration and test activities, including incoming inspection, functional testing, interface validation, anomaly resolution, verification evidence review, and system validation
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to resolve ambiguity and drive technical closure across internal and external teams
- Effective communicator with the ability to present complex payload, mission, and system-level topics to technical teams, customers, suppliers, and program stakeholders
- Ability to balance technical rigor with practical program constraints, including cost, schedule, risk, supplier readiness, and mission assurance
Benefits
- Competitive compensation with a robust equity plan to share in our success.
- Comprehensive coverage for health, dental, and vision insurance—including dependents.
- Unlimited vacation, supportive parental leave policy, and company-wide holiday shutdown.
- Semi-annual company-wide parties and frequent in-office team events.
- Relocation packages available for approved roles.
- $1,500 annual professional development fund to support your growth.
- Fully stocked Toronto office kitchen with snacks, drinks, games and top-notch kitchen appliances.
- Town Halls, Celebration Calls, and Company-wide events to stay connected and engaged.
