Original job description

Telesat (Nasdaq and TSX: TSAT) is a leading global satellite operator, providing reliable and secure satellite-delivered communications solutions worldwide to broadcast, telecommunications, corporate and government customers for over 55 years. Backed by a legacy of engineering excellence, reliability and industry-leading customer service, Telesat has grown to be one of the largest and most successful global satellite operators.

Telesat Lightspeed, our revolutionary Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network, scheduled to begin service in 2027, will revolutionize global broadband connectivity for enterprise and Government users by delivering a combination of high capacity, security, resiliency and affordability with ultra-low latency and fiber-like speeds. Telesat is headquartered in Ottawa, Canada, and has offices and facilities around the world.

The company’s state-of-the-art Satellite fleet consists of 12 GEO satellites, the Canadian payload on ViaSat-1 and one LEO 3 demonstration satellite. For more information, follow Telesat on X and LinkedIn or visit www.telesat.com

We are seeking a mid‑level RF engineer to support the technical management, production readiness, and lifecycle sustainment of an UT Modem/RF module used for DVB operation within the Telesat Lightspeed LEO network.

This role is hands‑on but product‑focused - ideal for an engineer who understands RF hardware deeply, but operates comfortably at the intersection of systems engineering, product and program management, manufacturing, test, and sustaining support. You will act as a technical anchor for the UT Modem/RF module as it transitions from development into qualification, volume production, deployment, and long‑term operational support.

Main Responsibilities

RF Module Technical Stewardship

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

Design Review & Engineering Oversight

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

Manufacturing & Production Support (Primary Emphasis)

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

Test, Verification & Interoperability

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

Embedded Control & Firmware Collaboration

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

Product Lifecycle & Sustaining Engineering

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
Support long‑term product roadmap considerations, including upgrades and end‑of‑life planning

Education And Experience

B.Sc. in Electrical Engineering or related discipline (M.Sc. preferred)
6-9 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

Specialized Knowledge, Skills And Abilities

Experience with LEO satellite systems or user terminals
Exposure to systems engineering practices (requirements decomposition, verification planning)
Experience working with ODMs or high‑volume CMs
Familiarity with embedded Linux, Yocto, or board‑level bring‑up support
Exposure to EMI/EMC compliance or aerospace qualification testing
Experience sustaining products post‑deployment
Experience in working with external vendors and Product Management organization
Comfortable owning hardware beyond initial design
Manufacturing Empathy: Designs and decisions informed by production realities
Systems Thinking: Understands how RF modules fit into larger communication systems
Execution Focus: Drives issues to closure across organizational boundaries
Clear Communicator: Effectively interfaces with RF, systems, firmware, test, and suppliers

Working Conditions

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

At Telesat, we take pride in being an equal opportunity employer that values equality in the workplace. We are committed to providing the best candidate experience possible including any required accommodations at every stage of our interview process. All qualified applicants that have been selected for an interview that require accommodations, are advised to inform the Telesat Talent team accordingly. We will work with you to meet your needs.
