Type of employment

Full-time (part-time possible)

The "Satellite Communication Technology" research group deals with new communication protocols, transmission methods and system concepts for future satellite networks. Our goals are to increase bandwidth and power efficiency, to improve transmission quality and interference resistance, to increase throughput and data rates, and to open up new application areas.

As a future member of our group you will actively participate in the development of the new technologies. Your tasks will be developing complex communication protocols, algorithms, and transmission methods for future satellite networks, e.g. interference and resource management methods, routing protocols for satellite constellations, error-resistant transmission methods and access methods. The transfer of the communication protocols and communication blocks into a dedicated demonstration environment is your responsibility.

For this purpose, you have profound knowledge and experience in the development of communication protocols and transmission methods for satellite communication or mobile radio as well as good programming skills (C++, Python).

For the successful performance of your future tasks, you will contribute your ideas, your creativity and your pleasure in working independently in an international research team.

We offer a pleasant working atmosphere, state-of-the-art equipment and an environment with national and international collaborations. Opportunities for professional development (e.g. PMP Project Management, DLR PhD program, etc.) are provided.

Flexible working hours and an individual agreement on mobile working are a matter of course for us.

• completed scientific university degree (Master's degree / university diploma) in engineering (e.g. electrical engineering / communications engineering / information technology / computer science / aerospace engineering) or natural sciences (e.g. mathematics, physics) or other courses of study relevant to the position
• very good knowledge and several years of professional experience in each case: in the field of communication networks and communications engineering; in various communication protocols (in particular data link layer, network layer, transport layer) and network simulation/system simulation for the application areas of satellite communication/mobile communications
• good knowledge and experience in the field of general satellite communications/mobile communications
• very good knowledge of the programming languages C++ and Python
• knowledge in the field of machine learning/KI is an advantage
• practical experience with the Linux or FreeBSD operating systems is an advantage
• good knowledge of English

Look forward to a fulfilling job with an employer who appreciates your commitment and supports your personal and professional development. Our unique infrastructure offers you a working environment in which you have unparalleled scope to develop your creative ideas and accomplish your professional objectives. Our human resources policy places great value on a healthy family and work-life-balance as well as equal opportunities for persons of all genders (f/m/x). Individuals with disabilities will be given preferential consideration in the event their qualifications are equivalent to those of other candidates.
