Mid-level RF engineer supporting technical management, production readiness of an UT Modem/RF module for Telesat's LEO network. Involves significant hands-on work and cross-functional collaboration.
Responsibilities
Serve as a technical owner for an RF module supporting DVB‑S/S2/S2X and/or DVB‑RCS2 operation in a LEO satellite network.
Support RF architecture definition and performance budgets (gain, noise figure, linearity, phase noise, spurious emissions).
Ensure RF performance compliance across process, voltage, temperature, aging, and environmental corners.
Support system‑level trade studies and impact assessments when requirements or operating conditions evolve.
Review and approve RF schematics and PCB layouts produced by internal or external design teams.
Ensure adherence to best practices for RF grounding and isolation, EMI/EMC mitigation, shielding and thermal management, mixed‑signal partitioning.
Participate in formal design and readiness reviews (PDR, CDR, MRR), identifying technical risks and proposing mitigation strategies.
Act as the engineering interface to contract manufacturers (CMs), ODMs, and key suppliers.
Lead or support DFM/DFT/DFS reviews, with focus on yield, repeatability, and long‑term producibility.
Define and maintain manufacturing test strategies, acceptance criteria, golden units and correlation plans.
Support EVT/DVT/PVT builds and production ramp‑up.
Analyze production data (yield, fallout, trends) and drive root‑cause analysis and corrective actions.
Own or support ECO/ECR processes, ensuring controlled and traceable changes throughout the product lifecycle.
Develop, review, and maintain RF, functional, and system‑level test procedures.
Support validation and production testing including: EVM / MER, ACLR, phase noise, harmonics and spurious emissions, DVB waveform compliance.
Work closely with system and test teams to ensure requirements traceability and verification completeness.
Support environmental, thermal, and reliability testing aligned with high‑reliability or aerospace practices.
Support embedded control architectures used to configure and monitor RF hardware.
Review and support interfaces such as SPI, I²C, and UART.
Collaborate with firmware teams on board bring‑up, calibration and compensation routines, telemetry, health monitoring, and diagnostics.
Ensure embedded control supports both manufacturing test and in‑service operation.
Provide ongoing engineering support for deployed hardware, including field issues, performance anomalies, failure analysis and returns.
Manage component lifecycle risks, including obsolescence and second‑source qualification.
Maintain configuration control, technical documentation, and manufacturing records in PLM systems.
Requirements
B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or related discipline (M.Sc. preferred).
3–6 years of experience supporting RF hardware in production or operational environments.
Strong understanding of RF components and subsystems (LNAs, mixers, PLLs, PAs, filters).
Experience reviewing RF schematics and PCB layouts, rather than performing layout work.
Familiarity with DVB physical‑layer concepts and performance metrics.
Hands‑on experience supporting test development and automation (e.g., Python/SCPI, LabVIEW).
Demonstrated experience working with manufacturing partners and supporting production issues.
Strong documentation, change management, and cross‑team communication skills.
Benefits
This position will be based out of the Ottawa, ON office
Full-time office or hybrid 4 days office/1 day remote, subject to work needs
Working conditions are generally comfortable typical of an office environment.
Combination of lab, manufacturing, and office work.
On‑site presence required for debug, FA, and production support activities.
Occasional travel to manufacturing and UT development partners and test facilities (≈10–15%).
Candidate must be able to obtain relevant security clearance for Canada
