A day in the life
Most days, you're working with cross-functional teams talking through requirements with antenna and hardware engineers, sketching out designs, and writing documentation others will rely on. Some days you're in the lab instead, hands on the hardware.
About the team
Our team validates payload phased arrays. The antennas we work with are packed with many processors and hundreds/thousands of individual elements working in sync. We test designs, find what breaks, and build the tools that make that possible. We partner closely with antenna, hardware, and firmware engineers. We take pride in catching problems before launch since once it's in orbit, there's no fixing it by hand.
