Join our global workforce, visualise the future and strive for success. Our engineering campus and corporate offices in the UK and US are optimal environments for ideas and innovation to flourish.<\/p>\n<p>ALL.SPACE, has developed a smart terminal, capable of linking with all satellites, all networks, in all orbits, all at once. Our ground-breaking software-defined service enablement platform integrates intelligent routing, edge computing and on-demand services to deliver unprecedented network resilience and application performance. Our terminal designs operate as fully electronic beam steering systems. Our IP has applications across a wide range of market sectors including aeronautical, land mobile, maritime, and 5G. It provides broadband, multi-beam, two-way communications with dynamic tracking of geostationary and non-geostationary satellites or terrestrial nodes.<\/p>\n<p>We are looking for world class talent to join our high-performing team working on cutting edge technology in the satellite communications industry. We stand by our company values; INTEGRITY, INNOVATION &amp; EXECUTION EXCELLENCE &#8211; giving you the opportunity to build your career in an environment where we encourage crisp decision-making, challenging the status-quo, championing your beliefs and ideas, sharing successes (and learning from failures) and working collaboratively with your fellow team members.<\/p>\n<p>ALL.SPACE is committed to practicing and promoting diversity, inclusion and equality in the workplace. We aim to lead by example by making satellite communications a more inviting and accessible industry for all.<\/p>\n<p>Visit www.all.space to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>The successful candidate will be working with an on-site team of around 4-5 people at first to commission a state-of-the-art over-the-air antenna testing facility for our novel Ka-band satcom terminal. This will include leading the set-up and operation of a brand new Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR). You will be responsible for highly technical calibration and qualifications of the terminals. Using your RF\/antenna background, you will integrate MATLAB and Python-based control software to control and synchronise the CATR measurement system with a variety of RF infrastructure, including active RF networks, the satcom terminal (API controlled) and RF test equipment including a Keysight PNA-X, PNA, spectrum analysers, signal generators, power sensors, calibration kits and more.<\/p>\n<p>This is a fantastic opportunity for an engineer that wants to drive a highly technical, novel calibration and measurement system to a production-standard. The successful candidate will own multiple technical development workstreams to use statistical analysis of large RF measurement data-sets to develop our calibration and qualification routines to new heights in order to improve terminal throughput without sacrificing quality.<\/p>\n<p>CATR Commissioning and Development<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"_5aef56b9 _3c6710e4\">\n<li>Commission and run state-of-the-art Compact Antenna Test Range (CATR) systems<\/li>\n<li>Run calibration and verification measurements of terminals as part of production<\/li>\n<li>Run over-the-air development activity in the CATR for next-generation terminals<\/li>\n<li>Maintain and develop MATLAB control scripts for the CATR system<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"_66a9fdc9 _7d641219 _34a5df00 _197594c3 _261ce55b a03e948a b0204c7c b8622f51 fa1c9905\"><span class=\"_4f726a06 a12bb4c1\" data-testid=\"expandable-text-box\">Antenna Calibration and Verification<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"_5aef56b9 _3c6710e4\">\n<li>Develop, calibrate, and verify the performance of the calibration system<\/li>\n<li>Integrate calibration methodologies into system frameworks<\/li>\n<li>Develop scripts to validate system functionality<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"_66a9fdc9 _7d641219 _34a5df00 _197594c3 _261ce55b a03e948a b0204c7c b8622f51 fa1c9905\"><span class=\"_4f726a06 a12bb4c1\" data-testid=\"expandable-text-box\">Documentation and Reporting<\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"_5aef56b9 _3c6710e4\">\n<li>Document calibration procedures, methodologies, and results for internal reference and regulatory compliance<\/li>\n<li>Generate reports summarizing findings, including defects and performance metrics<\/li>\n<li>Communicate effectively with stakeholders to convey results and recommendations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"_66a9fdc9 _7d641219 _34a5df00 _197594c3 _261ce55b a03e948a b0204c7c b8622f51 fa1c9905\"><span class=\"_4f726a06 a12bb4c1\" data-testid=\"expandable-text-box\"><strong>Requirements <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"_5aef56b9 _3c6710e4\">\n<li>Bachelor&#8217;s degree in Electrical Engineering, Physics, or related field<\/li>\n<li>Master&#8217;s degree preferred<\/li>\n<li>Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Matlab<\/li>\n<li>Experience with calibration and verification of antenna elements such as active phased arrays, low noise amplifiers, power amplifiers, frequency conversion, ADC &amp;
