At CesiumAstro, we are developers and pioneers of out-of-the-box communication systems for satellites, UAVs, launch vehicles, and other space and airborne platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and cross-functional work environment, which allows us to learn, develop, and engage across our organization. If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team.
We are looking to add a Staff Communication Systems Modeling & Simulation to join our team. In this position, you will lead the design, development, integration, and validation of communications systems supporting advanced products and platforms. This role independently applies advanced systems engineering principles to lead complex communications systems development efforts, develop robust system solutions, and resolve challenging system integration issues from concept through verification and production.   Working cross-functionally with systems, software, RF, electrical, mechanical, integration and test, quality, and program teams, this role leads technical initiatives, supports multidisciplinary product development, and promotes engineering best practices.

JOB DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

• Lead the design and development of communications system architectures, interfaces, subsystems, and performance models supporting product development.
• Guide system modeling, link analysis, performance evaluation, trade studies, simulation, and system integration across multiple development programs.
• Develop communications system architectures and technical solutions that satisfy product, customer, performance, interoperability, and system requirements.
• Leverage a digital modelling and simulation ecosystem of tools to model communication system architecture in the support of architetcure trade studies, new business efforts, and requirement development
• Lead efforts to establish streamlined, repeatable modeling and simulation processes and identify opportunities for workflow automation and reuse across programs and product lines
• Conduct verification, validation, testing, simulation, integration, and troubleshooting activities across multiple development programs.
• Resolve complex communications systems and system integration issues through analysis of simulation results, system performance data, test results, and engineering observations.
