Mission:
Join Tekever Space’s Innovation Team—a multidisciplinary group responsible for defining and validating next-generation functionalities for our flight-proven Inter-Satellite Link (ISL) platform. Your mission is to explore and de-risk new concepts such as enhanced time synchronization, higher data rates, new protocol compatibility, and solutions to new space challenges.
You’ll lead early architecture studies on FPGA and SoC platforms, implement high-performance building blocks, and maintain strong model-to-implementation reproducibility to support rapid concept validation and smooth transition to product teams.
Design and implement FPGA/SoC solutions for modern comms pipelines (sync, framing, FEC integration, high-rate datapaths).
Drive FPGA/software partitioning and trade-offs (latency, power, resources, maintainability, risk).
Integrate and validate designs with high-speed peripherals (e.g., high-speed serial links, DDR, DMA-based streaming, ADC/DAC interfaces depending on platform).
Collaborate with RF, PCB, instrumentation, and testing to ensure end-to-end viability and testability.
Produce high-quality technical documentation (architecture, design rationale, verification approach, and trade-off reports).
