About this role

Embedded Software Engineer, Satellite Antenna (Starlink) Redmond, WA SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not. Today SpaceX is actively developing the technologies to make this possible, with the ultimate goal of enabling human life on Mars. EMBEDDED SOFTWARE ENGINEER, SATELLITE ANTENNA (STARLINK) Starlink is SpaceX's unprecedented satellite constellation designed to deliver high-speed broadband internet to underserved and remote areas around the world. By deploying thousands of satellites in low Earth orbit (LEO), we've created a global network that bridges the digital divide, enabling reliable connectivity for homes, business, vessels, aircraft, and more. As a member of the Antenna Software team, you'll own software for bring-up, characterization, and operation of advanced phased array systems. You'll drive features at every layer of the stack, from embedded software running on microcontrollers in custom beamforming ASICs, to characterizing antennas in anechoic chambers, to defining the RF test required to produce hundreds of phased arrays per month, to building tools to analyze the on-orbit performance of our fleet of thousands of satellites serving millions of users. Prior RF experience is not a requirement to be successful here - we're looking for ambitious engineers who thrive when they're diving deep on challenging, interdisciplinary problems. RESPONSIBILITIES: - Develop embedded software for custom modem and beamformer silicon ASICs that form the foundation of Starlink's phased array antennas - Write flight-critical software to ensure intended operation of the antenna throughout
