Required System Validation Team leader Satellite Ground Station
We have engaged with a leading customer who is building a cutting-edge Low Earth Orbit satellite constellation. As part of this engagement, we are building a state-of-the-art landing station / feeder link product to connect the satellite network with the internet cloud.
The LS includes Control and data processing HW, SW as well as Phy and Radio HW and FW, to construct a full communication system supporting DVB-S2X as well as other Radio and IP communication protocols.
This is a new product for us and is going to be written from scratch, based on existing high-end satellite communication technology. This is an opportunity to embark on a interesting and challenging adventure into the world of satellite communication which is undergoing a major disruptive revolution.
Responsibilities:
Reporting to the Director of Validation, the candidate will have the following responsibilities:
Leading the Landing station system validation activity including Phy, HW and SW validation.
Study system architecture and system requirements and build a comprehensive test plan to address these requirements in collaboration with system engineering and other teams.
Define and write automatic test plans and test procedures for new systems and features.
Build , manage and monitor team work plans.
Build test setups for fully automated regression as well as for manual tests.
Take active part, hands-on in team execution: integration and feature/product enabling, bring up and debug activities, regression automation test of satellite systems.
Record, investigate and analyze defects.
Investigation of root cause of test case failures and providing corrective action in conjunction with development teams.
