Your role in helping us shape the future:
You are a highly self-motivated engineer who works collaboratively across the organization to develop and produce new system architectures. You will lead capturing and documenting high-level architectures and system-level requirements. You will also work to understand business needs and ensure that technical requirements are clear, and that system architecture is extensible and maintainable. You will report to the Director, Systems Engineering and Architecture.
Are you up to the challenge:

• You will define system-level, technical requirements for Intelsat's commercial aviation in-flight entertainment and communication (IFEC) systems.
• Define sub-system software requirements for on-aircraft and ground-based IFEC hardware/servers.
• Design and document high-level architecture for IFEC systems.
• Work with Product Owners to review & refine epic and feature-level business requirements.
• Work with Software Developers to refine feature-level software designs.
• Work with Testers to ensure test cases accurately cover all technical requirements.

Can you drive these processes?

• Proven ability to understand complex systems comprised of communication, computing, and Internet technologies.
• Experience with front end process flow; understanding of process inputs from Product Management and needed outputs to Development and Test.
• Knowledge and understanding of the following areas:

  • Stateful/Stateless Firewall and NAT solutions.
  • Wireless communication systems and protocols particularly WiFi and Satellite (GEO, MEO, LEO).
• Ability to aggregate, organize, and present complex technical information
• Ability to handle multiple tasks and projects efficiently.

You should definitely have:

• Bachelor's degree in telecommunications, engineering, computer science, or a related major.
• Minimum of 6 years' experience writing system-level, technical requirements for embedded and/or telecommunication systems, system-level would be a bonus
• Knowledge of 802.11 protocols.
• Excellent working knowledge of common Web/networking protocols and software services such as TCP/IP, HTTP Services (e.g., NGINX), virtualization and containerization.
• Excellent analytical skills and ability to think critically.
