The posting

Our client, a global leader in Earth-observation satellites, is hiring a Staff Systems Engineer for its Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) missions. Fully remote from the US is fine for the first couple of years; relocation to the Vancouver, BC area later is optional, not required.

What you will do • End-to-end oversight of SAR engineering across the full lifecycle of a SAR space mission • Own the mission concept of operations and high-level mission specs, including spacecraft budgets that drive the SAR payload • Lead technical solutions for current and future SAR missions: beam mode design, mission concept design, SAR image quality modelling • Lead mission-level risk management, integration, verification and validation • Run design trade-offs across spacecraft systems, coverage and access, SAR payload, SAR processor and end-user applications • Own the SAR side of commissioning, calibration and early operations • Advise senior management and new business; mentor the team

What you need • Graduate degree in Electrical Engineering, Engineering Physics, Math or Physics (or equivalent experience) • 15+ years with radar, SAR or similar active imaging systems (hardware, processors and/or data products) • 10+ years in a space systems engineering or similar complex systems environment • SAR remote sensing experience: system design, operation, applications/exploitation and/or calibration • Strong communicator across technical, sales, executive and customer audiences • US citizen or permanent resident (export-control and Controlled Goods requirements)

Nice to have: MATLAB, Python; satellite SAR payload design and operations; space mission design (coverage and access, orbital dynamics); spacecraft design (thermal, power, pointing); geospatial data.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
