Would you like to work with antennas for space and ground applications? At TICRA, you will have the unique opportunity to do so. We develop state-of-the-art RF antenna design software that enables space agencies and spacecraft manufacturers around the world to create high-performance communication links in space and on the ground. Moreover, we lead and participate in R&D projects focused on new antenna technologies for space applications.

You will join the Applied Electromagnetics (AEM) Team and will be involved in various activities, requiring a deep knowledge of TICRA’s software. You will have direct contact with our experienced customers and will deal with challenging antenna design and analysis tasks.

Primary Responsibilities

As a member of the AEM team, you will perform numerous tasks to support our software developers and customers worldwide and contribute to our R&D projects.

  1. Participate in projects funded by the European Space Agency in collaboration with partners in Europe, in the field of telecommunication, Earth observation, and science.
  2. Work closely with all other teams at TICRA to design and test new features in TICRA’s software and contribute to the user manual with tutorial examples.
  3. Provide technical support on our software products to our customers to interpret results, speed up computations, and identify bugs.
Your Profile

You are structured, have an analytical approach to your work, can prioritize and focus on details and quality. You have successfully worked in project teams and are able to work independently. You know how to work towards deadlines and deal with time pressure. You have very good communication skills in spoken and written English.

We expect that you:

  1. Hold a master’s degree in electrical engineering, physics, or astronomy and have a solid background in electromagnetic field theory.
  2. Have at least five years of experience in analysis or design of reflector antennas, feeds, arrays, patches, or periodic structures (e.g., reflectarrays or frequency-selective surfaces).
  3. Are a citizen of a NATO/EU country.
  4. Knowledge of TICRA’s software products, antenna measurement procedures, and theory or project management expertise is an advantage.

We offer you a unique opportunity to work in a knowledge-driven company that has delivered state-of-the-art software products to the global satellite industry for half a century. You will work alongside some of the best engineers in the field, who are passionate about their work and focused on knowledge sharing and teamwork. You will join a company that ensures the development of professional and personal skills and a good work-life balance in an international and social working environment.
