 EMC and RFC Engineer m/f Ref.EMC_24

 The “Electrical Power Systems, EMC & Harness Engineering” unit belongs to the “Integrated Systems-Satellites & Missions” BU. We are responsible of the EMC architecture leading relevant engineering activities in the whole lifecycle of projects and/or products, from initial conceiving and feasibility studies, bids and proposal preparation, design, and implementation, up to launch.

Main responsibilities are:

• Definition of the S/C EMC architecture
• Customer requirement analysis, flow down and system architectures trade-off
• System EMC, ESD & RFC analysis, and performance verification
• Customer and Subco’s technical follow-up
• EMC Spacecraft AIV
• EMC support to S/C AIT tests and launch campaign
• Control account, schedule and risks management
• Participation to bids for solution identification and costing definition
• Afford related R&D activities

Your Tasks:

In this role You will be in charge of covering the following tasks:

• Assess and analyze mission System and Operational Requirement Documents, SRD / ORD.
•               Interface main peers, (i.e. AEL Arch, Sys E2E, Avionics, Payloads..)
•               Implement Electrical and RFC architectures
•               Assess RFC issues through modeling and analysis
•               Lead and conduct System and S/S IVVQ
•               Support AIV across Product Life cycles
•               Support OPS team for SVTs, FOP, LEOP sims, LEOP and commissioning
• Lead assessment of motor drives interfaces and performances
• Assess mitigation techniques of the impinging Electric field generated by satellite antennas and equipment basing on dedicated radar absorber materials and assessed through dedicates computational solver (e.g. CST)
• EMC and RFC satellite architecture definition, sizing, and justification
• Conducted and Radiated analysis and circuit analyses
• ESD (internal bulk charging, external surface charging, discharge) analyses
• Magneto static field analyses
• RFC and LV compatibility analyses
• EMC and RFC requirements specification
• EMC budgeting, frequency, and control plan definition
• EMC corrective actions design (e.g. filtering, shielding, gasketing)
• EMC design rules definition for harness
• EMC testing at equipment level (setup, requirements, validation)

Your Qualifications:

• You have a Master Degree in Electrical or Telecommunication Engineering, with explicit focus on radio frequency and EMC.
• You are fluent in English (C1 and above certification) both listening and reading.
• You have at least 5 years of experience in similar position with at least an experience on Earth Observation, Navigation or Telecom platform / spacecraft design and test phases up to the launch / LEOP and commissioning.

 Specific knowledge:

You have a demonstrable knowledge of:

• System requirements analysis, flow down and verification
• Definition and management of design documentation: specifications, performance analysis, interfaces, budgets, validation.
• Analysis, simulation a validation of supply systems and equipment for mission scenario fulfilment
• Support to satellite test campaign during AIT, launch and in-orbit phases for power sim predictions
• Analog electronics
• Electromagnetics, Antenna and propagation topics
