Full Job Description
About Lynk Lynk is the inventor of satellite direct to device or D2D technology, and has the world’s only commercial license from the FCC to operate a commercial D2D system. Today, Lynk allows mobile network operators' subscribers to send and receive text messages to and from space via standard unmodified, mobile devices. Lynk’s service has been tested and proven on all seven continents, has regulatory approvals in more than 30 countries and is currently being deployed commercially based on more than 40 MNO commercial service contracts covering approximately 50 countries. Our technology will enable all 8 billion people on the planet to stay connected with the existing standard phone in their pocket. Everywhere. No matter what. By joining Lynk, you will have the opportunity to directly touch the lives of billions. Your mission will be to bring mobile broadband to billions, pull hundreds of millions out of poverty, and save countless lives. Job Summary Lynk is developing cellular-based space payloads and seeks a Wireless Engineer to design and implement feeder link modems for Lynk’s spacecraft and ground systems. This role involves developing, implementing, and testing DSP and satellite communication protocols. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in wireless communication, signal processing, and software engineering to drive innovation in next-generation satellite-based networks. Core Responsibilities - Design and implement digital signal processing (DSP) algorithms and wireless protocols in the PHY and MAC layers. - Deliver performant and robust production code targeted to software-defined radio (SDR) platforms using single-board computers and/or FPGAs. - Evaluate the performance of algorithms in simulation (e.g., MATLAB, Python) prior to implementation. - Validate performance on target hardware using RF lab equipment like spectrum analyzers and channel simulators, as well as networking tools such as ping and iperf. - Develop test automation frameworks
