Please Note: To conform with the United States Government Space Technology Export Regulations, the applicant must be a U.S. citizen, lawful permanent resident of the U.S., conditional resident, asylee or refugee (protected individuals as defined by 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)), or eligible to obtain the required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State.

At CesiumAstro, we are developers and pioneers of out-of-the-box communication systems for satellites, UAVs, launch vehicles, and other space and airborne platforms. We take pride in our dynamic and cross-functional work environment, which allows us to learn, develop, and engage across our organization. If you are looking for hands-on, interactive, and autonomous work, CesiumAstro is the place for you. We are actively seeking passionate, collaborative, energetic, and forward-thinking individuals to join our team.

We are looking to add a highly skilled Communication Systems Architect to our team. In this position you will be a senior technical leader responsible for defining complete, differentiated communication system solutions for customer missions and new business pursuits. The Architect serves as the primary technical owner of the solution, translating mission and customer needs into an end-to-end architecture spanning antennas, RF electronics, digital processing, communications algorithms, firmware, software, and system interfaces.

Successful candidates will bring deep expertise in one or more communications disciplines—such as communication theory and signal processing, RF systems, antenna and phased-array systems, digital communications and processing, or communications software—combined with the technical breadth and systems perspective necessary to lead the complete solution.

Working closely with Product, Business Development, Program Management, and Engineering, the Architect leads technical solution development from early customer engagement through capture, proposal, contract definition, and transition to execution. The role requires the ability to move beyond a specific technical specialty, make system-level trades, and establish an architecture that balances mission performance, product strategy, technical risk, cost, schedule, and execution.

CesiumAstro considers several factors when extending an offer, including but not limited to, the role and associated responsibilities, a candidate’s work experience, education/training, and key skills.  Full-time employment offers include company stock options and a generous benefits package including health, dental, vision, HSA, FSA, life, disability and retirement plans.  
 
CesiumAstro is an Equal Opportunity employer.  All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability, protected Veteran Status, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state, or local law.
